The Investor’s Chair With Ivyn Sambo is a South African podcast focused on making investing and personal finance understandable for young adults across the region. Hosted by educator and creator Ivyn Sambo, the show grounds money decisions in South Africa’s realities and wider African markets, with a mission to help listeners build wealth without sacrificing a balanced life. Episodes are short, clear, and practical—typically 10–15 minutes—and released weekly.
The program blends solo explainers with occasional interviews. Recent topics include the differences between unit trusts and ETFs, how to invest in property via the JSE using REITs and ETFs, and whether Blue Label Telecoms’ rally merits a closer look. Sambo also records step‑by‑step guides such as starting an investment plan with under R500 a month and assessing local investing apps like EasyEquities, FNB Shares Zero, Shyft, Franc, and SatrixNOW. Alongside tutorials, the feed features conversations with South African figures—ranging from property investor Billy Siziba to professional footballer Terrence Mashego—about money management and building long‑term assets. Since launching in 2022, the show has released more than 110 episodes and maintains a strong listener rating on Apple Podcasts. In a landscape crowded with global voices, The Investor’s Chair stands out for its focus on South African markets, plain‑English explanations, and consistent, actionable guidance tailored to first‑time and early‑career investors.
