Lavinia Schlebusch, is a 50-year-old teacher from Jozi; whom, by her own admission, had no interest in the markets. But after reading an article on investing from **[Maya on Money](http://mayaonmoney.co.za/)**, Lavinia began her own saving and investing journey on EasyEquities.

“Now I can say: ‘I invest in the stock exchange!’ This was something I never thought I could say to myself” 

We met Lavinia at Moneyweb’s 2017 MoneyExpo. Check out our chat and hear how even though she didn’t grow up in a household where they talked about investing, she now considers herself “an EE fiend” checking her account four/five times a day.
