Built for Freedom: Mário Neves' Playbook for a Life on His Own Terms

In a world where most people trade time for money and settle into routines shaped by others, Mário Neves chose a different path—one defined by intention, discipline, and an unshakable commitment to freedom. An entrepreneur, investor, and writer, Neves is not your conventional business figure. He has crafted a life that seamlessly blends ambition with autonomy, structure with spontaneity. His playbook isn't about hustle for hustle's sake—it's about building systems that support freedom, not suppress it. The Power of Place: Living in Three Countries by Design Each year, Mário rotates between three countries—one for business growth, one for deep family connection, and one for personal reinvention. It's not escapism; it's strategy. By shifting environments, he remains sharp, adaptable, and globally aware. This lifestyle is only possible because of what Neves calls 'Freedom Infrastructure'—the systems, investments, and disciplines that let him operate from anywhere. Discipline Over Motivation For Neves, freedom doesn't come from chaos or luck—it's the result of consistent discipline. 'Freedom is earned,' he often says. Whether it's through early morning routines, focused work blocks, or investing in assets that produce long-term value, Mário's habits are engineered for control over his time, mind, and finances. Crypto, Private Equity, and the New Frontier As the founder of Sohl Ventures, Neves channels his passion for alternative investments into real-world impact. He believes in sovereignty—especially financial—and has positioned crypto and private equity as tools to help others break free from outdated systems. For him, crypto isn't just a financial vehicle; it's a symbol of individual power in a decentralized world. Writing as Legacy Beyond deals and decisions, Mário writes. His essays and upcoming books are blueprints for those who want to build a life by design, not default. He writes not to impress, but to express—to leave behind a roadmap for those bold enough to claim their freedom. Mário's Message: Build the Life You'd Be Proud to Wake Up To Freedom, for Mário Neves, isn't a destination—it's a daily practice. His playbook isn't about following trends, it's about creating alignment between who you are, what you do, and how you live. For those tired of borrowed dreams and ready to build their own, Mário Neves offers more than advice. He offers proof. TIME BUSINESS NEWS

Lincoln Financial drafts former JPMorgan Chase executive as CTO

This story was originally published on CIO Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily CIO Dive newsletter. Lincoln Financial appointed Tom Anfuso to SVP and CTO Monday. The insurance and financial services firm will lean on Anfuso to 'provide strategic direction and vision for IT infrastructure at Lincoln,' according to the announcement. Anfuso is a longtime technology executive with a background in the financial industry. He comes to Lincoln Financial from JPMorgan Chase, where he spent four years in the CTO role before becoming managing director and head of technology integrations earlier this year, according to his LinkedIn profile. Previously, Anfuso held CIO positions at insurers Chubb and National Life Group. In the new role, Anfuso will report to EVP and CIO Jennifer Charters, who was tapped to replace retiring EVP and CIO Ken Solon in October 2024. Charters previously held the CIO position at Flagstar Bank, served as CIO of corporate technology at Ally Financial and spent more than a decade at Accenture providing technology support to insurance, financial services and telecom companies. Movement at the top of Lincoln Financial's technology team comes at an inflection point for the industry, as many of the largest firms leverage the combined power of cloud, data and AI to streamline internal processes, improve customer experience and drive growth. The industry experienced a small burst of technology executive movement among a broader flurry of technology executive appointments so far this year. Earlier this month, Unum Group tapped former Aflac EVP and CIO Shelia Anderson to lead transformation as EVP and chief information and digital officer in May. In March, The Hartford swapped CIOs and appointed a chief data, AI and operations officer amid a multiyear modernization push. The Hartford Chairman and CEO Christopher Swift touted the company's five-year track record of digital transformation during a January earnings call. Former Citigroup CIO of Services Nick Nadgauda took the helm as EVP and CIO at MetLife in March. Nadgauda's appointment came shortly after MetLife leaned on AI and digitization to drive a five-year New Frontier growth initiative last December. Lincoln Financial executives emphasized a similar focus on technology during a May 8 earnings call. 'We have taken a number of actions to increase our operational efficiency and position our enterprise for future growth, including reducing expenses while strategically investing in technology, talent and infrastructure to further elevate our customer experience and enhance our ability to scale effectively,' the company's Chairman, President and CEO Ellen Cooper said. Cooper pointed to Lincoln Financial's technology modernization and innovation efforts in an October announcement of Charters' CIO appointment. 'We look forward to Jen's leadership as we strategically deploy customer-centric technology to meet the evolving needs of the people we serve and enhance the ways we deliver our products, solutions and capabilities to the market,' Cooper said.
