#293 Arnold Van Den Berg-Life Lessons Learned Surviving The Holocaust & The Power of Your Mind

What Got You There with Sean DeLaney

Arnold is the founder, CEO, Co-CIO, PM, Principal & Chairman of Century Management.

His childhood years, in the 1940s, were filled with angst. He and his family were living in Holland, just down the street from Anne Frank. Taken over by the Germans, both of Arnold’s parents survived Auschwitz. However, a 19-year-old girl saved Arnold by miraculously sneaking him through the German lines. Today Arnold shares his story by speaking at schools on his experiences growing up, being a holocaust survivor, and helping young people learn from those who have been through tough times.

While Arnold has no formal college education, his rigorous self-study, tremendous dedication, and years of industry experience are the foundation of his extensive market knowledge. He began in the industry working for several financial services companies. However, he quickly found that he didn’t always agree with leadership and he wanted to be in a business that he loved at a place that he believed in. Wanted to make his own decisions, Arnold formed Century Management in 1974.

On this episode Arnold discuss the major life lessons he’s learned surviving the holocaust, the power of the subconscious mind and some investing wisdom!
