The Medical Entrepreneur
Manage episode 428369238 series 2899140
Dr. Wole Odedun’s life story has been truly epic! He really could have ended up as a motor mechanic, eking out an existence on Lebanon Road, Ibadan, Nigeria. Instead, he went back to school, went abroad, studied medicine, worked jolly hard and struck gold; no, hit the mother lode.
In this episode, we discuss:
· Ode Omu, Ibadan, Malta, Harley Street? Not the most obvious of trajectories surely;
· God, fate, serendipity, making your own luck? Take your pick;
· Education, education, education/property, property, property and, of course, location, location, location;
· Aston Martin DB7 Volante, 1958 Jaguar XK150 and the classic car bug;
· Records dear boy, records – keep, keep, keep;
· Putin, patriotism and the world order;
. Giving back, doing good and heck, living well - because you've earned it;
· Fela, Bob James, Spirogyra and Taylor (Ms. Americana) Swift – from the sublime to the ……
· The bucket list - the rich also wish.
Dr. Wole tells a joke but wryly, one that gets one worrying about the future of the motherland.
This episode will get you thinking about Shakespeare, Brutus and that thing about the tide in the affairs of men..
