Lessons in Life and Business
from the Tsunami
By: Mr. Greg Romundt
In this exclusive interview by SVN Rock Advisors Inc. Brokerage CEO and Broker of Record Derek Lobo, Centurion President and CEO Greg Romundt shares one of the most trying times in his life, and the one that has had the most profound impact on his outlook in life and influenced how he manages money.

The videos are adaptations of Greg's original Lessons in Life and Asset Management from Surviving the 2004 Tsunami article written in 2015 to honor the 11th anniversary of the disaster that claimed an estimated 230,000 lives. It is a story of the power of coincidences, and how one event can lead to things going in completely different directions than anticipated.

We are excited to share the introductory video of the series. Sign up to have Lessons 1 through 9 delivered to your inbox!
