My Story
Hi! I’m Vittorio Rigato, Money Coach and Stoic Money founder.
I started investing in 2015 to help my parents take full control of their money after years of frustration and disappointing results, eventually replacing their financial adviser while starting to invest for myself as well.
That experience taught me that a lack of financial knowledge leave you exposed to hidden costs and constantly under pressure, not knowing when or if you will achieve your long term financial goals.
Since then, I've built a £1,000,000 personal portfolio and achieved financial independence.
Today I spend my time teaching people how to get to Financial Freedom in a realistic way, using the principles of Stoicism that guided me.
