--------
Vivek Ramaswamy shared his incredible journey from a humble background to financial success in his 20s. Raised with a strong academic focus, Ramaswamy was expected to pursue a stable medical career. His parents, immigrants from India, originally envisioned him attending medical school. However, Ramaswamy’s academic excellence led him to Harvard, where he explored new opportunities beyond the medical field. While at Harvard, Ramaswamy double-majored in science and engaged in various intellectual pursuits, including a life-changing genetics class. His passion for science and curiosity about market dynamics led him to work with a group of Harvard alumni at a quantitative hedge fund focused on biotech investments. This exposure blended his interest in genetics with financial acumen, setting the stage for his financial success. By leveraging his unique skill set at the intersection of science and finance, Ramaswamy accumulated $15 million before turning 30.

$15M *”in”,* and the itch still wasn’t scratched. this man is built different.
There’s a famous quote that explains this perfectly.
Most entrepreneurs don’t do it for the money- they do it for the love of the game.
Money is just a way of keeping score.
GIGANTIC REBIRTH
@@DidierPeroni -Harvey specter
It's not about the money. It's about the significance and fufilment.
It was because the itch was in his brain!🧠 He was pursuing his passion not wealth.
Hedge fund manager while going to law school must have been an exhilarating experience ✨😎✨😎 Nice work Vivek!
Wow you can tell vlad loves money first time he didn’t interrupt or make it about himself this might be his best interview yet tbh
He’s made a statement about that little while ago. When he’s doing a life story style interview he lets the guest finish talking and just listens. When it’s just a conversation like with Boosie or with TK Kirkland. That’s when he’ll interrupt you.
He knows who he is friends with and has relationships with, and who is he is legit interviewing, thats all. If he knows them really well, it becomes more of a conversation
The Jew in him
No interruptions because he’s not saying anything controversial. Just facts and his experience.
@@integrafreak1 Anchor ⚓ Baby Vivek is why birthright citizenship is a good thing
Vivek is operating his life at an insane level. That $15 million he made on the side, he nearly 100X’d it now with over a billion.
Some people are driven and addicted to do hard things. Succeeding at Harvard is hard. Wrapping your brain around genetics is hard. Investing on a hedgefund level is hard. Yale law school is hard. Making $15,000,000 in three years is hard.
It’s actually not
@@davruck1 Cuz you are a retard...
1) Harvard has a 3.59% acceptance rate.
2) Yale Law has a 5.6% acceptance rate.
3) Hedge Fund acceptance rate is below 0.5%
4) Making $15,000,000 in three years.... 🤣 MF less than 44% of Americans can afford a $1,000 emergency.
Yeah this mf is monster
Obama did it
@@davruck1you work at Walmart
This is the product of being raised by parents that arent fucked up and can give thr absolute best for there kid.
Regardless of your political position. Vivek is a very impressive person. Strong personality. Hopefully he stays in politics
There is no regardless, he's a political piece of 💩
You clearly showed your political position
His foreign policy is horrible lol
Exactly. If he was a liberal, despite his accomplishments, you wouldnt respect him nearly as much. Sad how grown adults are so partisan and cannot be honest and objective. @spokentruth5909
Middle easterns are so fucking annoying
Everything this dude touches turns to gold.
Owning a chain of gas stations and hotels can make you rich in no time.

@@schawnettarobinson8584 Yeah ok
This dude mind is always saying, I can do everything.
This is a self made man. You may not like or agree with his political beliefs but you’ve got to respect his accomplishments. Don’t be a hater. Learn from people who did it right. It’s for your own good.
I hope he will be our president one day! Vivek Rocks!
He starts his story with his parents literally working hard so that he may not be in debt after school. That's not self made. Of course, he did the hard work.
@SS-kg8rj parents give lives to everyone. Using your life no one is self made.
@@SS-kg8rjdid he get billions from his parents or himself?
I really never get how you guys try not to make it political yet say stuff like this. You literally contradict yourself
Not really, engineer father and nurse mother, his family was doing well financially and saving well, he got more opportunities than most due to that financial stability
Am an immigrant and am proud of it. Watching individuals like vivek is a constant motivation.
not special there's people who have been here and came into harder conditions and made it
@@WESTERNBOUNDTVjust because someone had to overcome harder things doesn’t mean that this isn’t impressive
He came from money! Poor people like us will never be given these opportunities
@@WESTERNBOUNDTVlies look deeper practically all real successful people come from stable homes, money, with financial support and help
@@Downtime_videos You're a loser. I hope you stay poor.
This is first time I've seen Vlad interview someone. Where he didn't ask questions. This guy can talk without them😊
take notes people ✍️ : mainly focus on his ambition that alone is very important when it comes 2 being successful in life 🙂
👏
You take notes, we're good.

@@cipriandobrea7369yea you’re hustling at Taco Bell and getting a record deal soon, right?
One thing I took away from this was. FOLLOW YOUR PASSION & SUCCESS WILL INEVITABLY FOLLOW.
This is not necessarily true. If you are intelligent and hard working you will succeed regardless. Following your passion is great but it does it equate to a lot of money by any means.
dhar mann quote
Actually read proverbs 16:3
First time vlad let the person talk without interrupting them.
To be fair, Vivek can filibuster with the best of them. If you don't interrupt, he'll go on forever.
The biggest thing I learn is Vlad actually knows how to STFU when he's interviewing someone he truly respects. I've never heard him more quiet ever!! Interview this guy weekly if that's what it takes...
Right, he was real quiet with Kevin Samuel’s as well
He only shuts up when he is talking to someone smarter than him or when it’s on topic he can’t bring his “personall” experience. How many times are you going to hear him tell rappers how to save their money and invest. He is not telling this guy how to invest.
He doesn’t have any grounds to relate to this guy with. So he doesn’t have anything to say plus this guy doesn’t use any verbal fillers and offer an opportunity to interject. He just keeps on rolling with intellectual subjects.
@@carlb8340 He's trying to help morons.
VR is a academic genius- to take on Yale law school like it was just something to do just cause he wanted to try it. Lol
Molecular Biology from Harvard, then JD Law and Political Philosophy degrees from Yale. Not to mention making millions while doing it. 😅
But he's not a doctor, so his parents aren't as proud of him as they should be.
@@TheWizard134they just wanted career stability for him, so I’m sure they’re not worried about that anymore
@@time_luck11 it was a joke
The drive to go along with raw intelligence. Lot of intelligent people out there without the drive or vision.
Holy smokes this guys gotta be one of the sharpest around. Messing around with his own fund on biotechs whilst studying Yale Law because he was bored with hedge fund portfolio managing and making 15 million on his 'side hustle'. He's achieved more by his 20s than others have in their entire careers. And that was BEFORE he became a billionaire with his next venture.
He’s an interesting guy in that he significantly dumbs down his content based on the audience. If you listen to his All-In podcast interview you get a completely different interview
Weird that he seems nervous for this interview. When he be on presidential debates he cool as ice. Lol. He more of a nerd than i thought but thats a good thing.
Code switchin
He'll be on JRE next
I CANT WAIT MAN
Vivek is superior intelligence, damn this guy should be the VP this time and POTUS in 2028
He takes too many risk to be President. He is exactly where he should be, the private sector.
It won't hurt to give him a chance, he seems smarter than Donald Gump... I mean Trump, lol.
Can’t no Indian tell us about America
Take their land but can't be President?? SMH
@@WhyYouMadd40His ethnicity has nothing to do with his qualification as an American citizen - your Ebonics does.
This guy seems like a cool guy. Very smart.
Vivek had my vote at interview #2 a year ago
Maybe we should stop voting and start caring about each other instead of other men who will never relate to
Your so immature thinking just because this guy doesn’t like migrants is gonna make America any better
@@dianetan5790 😂 what planet do you live on? And what country because this is America 🇺🇸 the best and greatest country on planet earth 🌎
This guy is ultra blessed.
hard work brings blessings
@@matt_FUGA_UGCluck
Imagine making 15 million dollars and saying hey I’m bored let me try stand up comedy. 🤯
tbh this interview itself made me completely change my opinions on Vivek..... dude seems mad sharp and chill
I love Vivek! He’s got conviction and loves America.
Vlad is slowing becoming a finance channel n i love it
Thank god. His earlier work was so cringey. Asking adult film stars "So what's your favorite position?" Like just gutter content.
Me too
@@snowbear163 Thats what you call a plan, get the viral hits so you get the attention then you can pivot into what you really want
I just wanna know why he don’t ask them questions like “So when was the first time you shit someone?” “At what age did you join the gang” “when was the first time you committed a crime”
he lost me when he said his mom is a psychiatrist and was able to give him a middle class upbringing. clearly out of touch with reality on what middle class means
Why
@@davidc4408Google the average salary of a psychiatrist then compare it to the median income in the United States (60k)
Back then, not today. Consider the times.
@@maxjnb4816 why
Ummm that was a different time. Try to get up to speed. We are on Gen Z now lol
Viveks a cool dude , super smart
for y’all thinking it’s easy money and you can do it, think twice, he’s not only very smart, he had to work extremly hard to get the chance to go to Harvard and get that internship which led to that job, it’s not as easy as he makes it seem, it’s decades of work in the making. Investing using scientific analysis requires crazy foresight and technical skill
Vivek on DJ Vlad is the craziest combo I’ve ever scene 😭😭😭
At this rate, Vlad gonna interview Diddy
ONLY in his dreams! He wish he could be so lucky!
I think he did cuz he has a flashback of him somewhere. Sure you’ll find it if you google it
Only if Vlad will come off that Bombers jacket.
He did already but it’d that be good if he did it now 🤣
No Diddy…
EDUCATE YOURSELF NO MATTER WHAT
Vivek, the most interesting man in the world. He’s incredible!!
He has a very high IQ, which is exceptional.
I'm not sure about that. He advocated for burning more coal.
@@Gr8thxAlot u clearly donet understand enough of that issue. If not coal what would u burn?
Genetic lottery. Some of them hit it but fewer realize their potential because then need to be in the right environment in the household or they will get lost. I don't think he would have been successful if his parents didn't pressurize him to hit the books.
i would guess between 130-140 based on his speech patterns
Vivek is awesome!
Great interview so far cant wait for the rest
I like how vlad gives guest room to speak
bro is a genius. he just casually saying he got into these ivy leagues like it’s nothing😂 yet alone internships at these hedge funds
Is anyone else mind blown by the fact that this guy made millions while in law school? That’s next-level hustle! 🔥
His dad was an engineer and attorney for GE. It’s not this factory worker he tries to portray
😂 Bruh
Being that he’s a politician now I think he does that purposely, like slightly misleading to be relatable
lol you really just angry at your parents
@@GS-ex9sg no my parents did well for themselves and us. I never tried to be from the streets when I know I wasn’t raised that way. Instead of being honest, he’s acting like he came from a middle/lower middle class family. People can smell the fakeness hence why he never got close to being a real candidate
@@BSmitty4rm8Fittyno, you're just angry at someone because they're rich, happily married to a pretty woman who is an Otolaryngologist and has 2 kids. Get out and enjoy the sunshine!
Dude can have an hour long conversation with himself
lol facts
This is what happens when you’re used to unintelligent and thugs doing interviews
Vlad talks too much y’all tell him to stfu and let the guest talk. When the guest talks a lot y’all still have something to say. Can’t please everyone I guess 😂
@@GunnatelloFacts! The truth is he just talks over these clowns head and now they don’t want to hear it 😂
We are looken for even ground here..lol..this dude loves to hear himself talk@Gunnatello
This the guy you take a step back from mid convo and tell him you’re running late somewhere.
Vivek’s ambition and drive is truly contagious and actually gives me hope through his actions and courage to speak truth… Ron Paul was first politician I admired, now Trump and Vivek are on the list, starting to see some others too. I liked trump bc he did a good job with as little as they allowed him to try and do, he can and should do more this time but my hope is Trump sees that in Vivek he assures his legacy. The Legacy of Trump is that he was not planned for and the only way to make it last is to pass the torch to another outsider even better from a younger generation to continue a path that he began by clearing away all the debris so those that walk it won’t trip at the start and it becomes more and more of a viable option for America to take going forward.
America First Forever!

I can hear him talk all day
Very brilliant guy. His ambition is remarkable!! He really believes he can do anything he puts his mind to. He never gets comfortable doing one thing. Always looking for a challenge. And pretty much succeds at everything Lol. He definitely motivates me Lol
I like this guy. I respect intelligence
If Americans could look past ethnicity, they had the chance of taking a big win electing this man.
I think Vivek will become president one day. This was just Trump's election to win or lose. Hopefully, Trump will give him a position in his cabinet so they can stop using his lack of political experience against him.
Will India look past ethnicity and make a Christian PM?
Why does Vivekswamy want to become president of America?
He is immature and since Americans do not have knowledge of his hindu identity he makes ridiculous false statements.
Vlad said he came over when he was 5 like he caught his own plane lol
Shoutout to Vlad for keeping his channel super diverse!
Vivek probably paid Vlad for the interview
What I do admire about Indians and most Asians is that the value family and have respect for them plus they take life seriously but also appreciate every aspect and education is valued not only in the building but from home.
THIS WAS OUTSTANDING!!!
You, Vlad, didn't interrupt him and insert some irrelevant to the question statement or secondary question that misdirects from the original question/statement. You didn't get argumentative against him to insert your own feelings/thoughts/irrelevant experience. You didn't make it about yourself to stop him and insert some random rant as though interviewing yourself [e.g. your many Grant Cardone interviews where some how it always comes up that you paid off yer house].
Instead, this time for the first time in legitimately too many years you simply asked a question and STFU to allow the interviewed person to speak their truth.
In this case the person, Vivek, is fascinating. Thank you. PLEASE use ____this interview_____ as the model from here forward toward other persons you choose to invite. :GolfClaps:
This guy is a legend..
This aint for the average viewer whos parents saved up hundreds of thousands to go to Harvard. This guy lived in beautiful homes and had great parents
Politics isn't for regular people
@@sp123 it actually is though, anyone can get there. My dad had a friend that always did good thing for the community. Had so many charity events, he became one Kieth Ellison here in MN
I really believe if Vivek was president he would do great things for America. No matter red or blue I personally love you.
The level hate Indians get on the internet is simply jealousy and envy. Vivek is just one story. There are endless Indians who came to America and became insanely successful. It’s not a surprise Indian-Americans are the richest ethnic group by a long shot!
Vivek 2028. Dude is brilliant.
He is a genius. I love listening to smart people like him. It is refreshing.
Things like this always blow my mind. Like, the other side of life. People who spent their life going to Ivy League schools and meeting other young rich people and trust fund babies and people who made it themselves. Just, wow.
There’s nothing wrong with being born into wealth or a trust fund baby as long as you’re humbled and know where you come from. Obviously those who grind from the bottom are idolized more for their success story
Man this guy oozes success
Can’t hate on the hustle.
Vivek seems like a chill dude, wish he'd stay out of politics.
What's wrong with his political views? Lots of it seems kind of common sense-y from what I've seen?
In other words you wish he was a Democrat

What up my vice president???
Never gonna happen.
Vlads listening skills are great
My comment is not going to be popular here but i have to put it out anyway. As much as i admire the sharp intellect this guy has, i can't stop wondering, isn't this guy the very epitome of whatever is wrong with America?
A hedge fund speculator, with ultra sharp intellect, who hates slow lab work, could make millions while still being a student but the real productive people, who actually do slow moving hard lab work resulting in real useful breakthroughs, rot in obscurity, uncertainties and penury.
capitalism has its deficits
Very accomplished and intelligent man!!! No one can hate that! Superb x
Bro, your videos are gold.

RAM started with money because his parents, who worked a good job, paid for his ivy-league education!
I’ve listened to him on a few other podcasts & he seems focused,driven etc… but when he talks, he sounds truthful & full of shit at the same time… i know i know how that sounds but im jokingly serious
Your conflating being professional to being full of shit. I get it. I also get that you are probably working out a low frequency life.
Thats how you become politician
When someone of his intellect speaks it automatically rubs most people of average and below average level intelligence the wrong way. You feel as if you’re being duped. Stems from your own insecurity and intimidation. This is why you struggle with your feelings towards Vivek. You’re dumb he’s smart and your self preservation instincts tell you he can get over on you so your guard goes up.

More interviews like this!!! Whatever politics aside, u gotta admire the way immigrants come into this country and make something of themselves.
Oh...and notice these interviews, not a single interruption from Vlad.
Your mom was a doctor & your dad worked at GE, ya’ll were NOT middle class!!! Your parents were probably bringing in $250K, this was probably back in the 90’s at that!!!
Net worth truly snowballs after $100k! Keep investing regularly and you'll be blown away how much it can change in a few short years. Here's to $1 million and to FIRE!
My advice to everyone is this : if you want to grow big this year especially in your finances. Be willing to make investments. Saving is great but investing puts you on a pedestal where you wouldnt have to worry about savings as you do now. Thanks to my FA, my portolio is doing really great and im proud of the decisions i made last year.
Nice. People often underestimate financial advisors' importance. Over 50 years of data reveal that those who work with advisors typically earn more than those who go it alone. I've been fortunate to work with one for 13 years, resulting in a $1 million portfolio, largely from early investments in AI and other growth stocks..
I've been considering this but haven't been proactive. Can you recommend your advisor? Could really use some assistance.
*Marissa Lynn Babula* has always been on the top of my list..She is regarded as a genius in her area and well knowledgeable about financial markets. I highly recommend you look her up if you want excellent collaboration.
Thank you for sharing, I must say, Marissa appears to be quite knowledgeable. After coming across her web page, I went through her resume and it was quite impressive. I reached out and scheduled
Loving Vivek , man of the year! Hopefully our leader some day! 💕💕💕💕💕
