Gary Stevenson was a city of London trader who made a fortune and retired in his 20s. He came from a working-class family in east London, went to LSE and then to CitiBank. He was a currency trader turning over millions of pounds each day. He has transitioned into an author,1 a private trader (so he gets a 100% of the profits), and a podcaster.
His podcasts are notable for their political analysis of the impact of the redistribution of wealth from the middle-class to the super-rich. The middle-class is being * eaten* by debt and especially housing debt. His version of inequality builds on the work of the French economist Thomas Piketty.2
He has a very earnest style and poor presentational qualities. But. Like all good communicators he has an interesting story to tell and he tells it in a compelling way. The other great thing about Stevenson is that he keeps his narrative short and sweet. This one in the title is 90 seconds long. (There are longer ones as well.)
