How Tosin Olaseinde is teaching Africans financial literacy with Money Africa

Oluwatosin is the founder of Money Africa, a financial literacy platform (EdTech) and Ladda, a one-stop investment platform that gives you access to an array of products including Savings, Mutual funds and Stocks (Fintech). She is also one of LinkedIn's Top Voices in Finance and Economy.

On this episode of #FoundersConnect, I sat down with the Tosin and we talked about her journey so far. She shared stories from her days working at CNBC and Bloomberg, how she relocated back to Nigeria and went completely broke; and how she accidentally made a business of her passion. She also shared her biggest life lessons, favourite failures and plans for the near future.

This was a very amazing conversation. You surely enjoy it, so when you do, please comment and share.
