INVERTIR desde los 12 AÑOS | ING. CARLOS SLIM EN CRACKS PODCAST

This is a transcript excerpt from a Cracks Podcast episode where Ing. Carlos Slim recounts his earliest banking and investing experiences: he opened a checking account at age 12 after arranging deposits with his mother and a friendly bank cashier; the account started with a 500-peso deposit but produced no interest, so he began buying stocks (notably 30 Banamex shares). By age 15 he prepared personal balance sheets monthly. He invested passively through most of his life until around age 64–65, after which he shifted to operating businesses (mentioning a store named “El Cielo”); he also took a sabbatical and attended a course in Chile in 1963. The tone is recollective and practical, focused on early financial discipline and the transition from investor to operator.
