A person or a topic is the focus of an expert chat. Whether it’s questions about expert knowledge or very personal issues from everyday life, it doesn’t matter. With [„Ask me anything…“](https://paymentandbanking.com/?p=27256)For example, Payment & Banking has created an interactive and regular format that, hopefully, thanks to you, will never be boring. Well-known faces, actors of the scene and inspiring personalities of the Fintech industry have their say. The special thing about it: It is not the Payment & Banking team that thinks up the questions, but our community. ## Episode 21 – Ask me anything – with Michael Spitz Before the recording of a new „Ask me anything“ starts, either analog or remote, I like to drink a glass of water and also stop the interview guests to do so. After a cup of coffee, I was once told by an actress, you can hear a smacking sound while talking during the recording, because coffee – I admit it: favourite drink! – dries out the mouth. So I’ll pass. That’s harsh. But forget coffee! In the current „Ask me anything“ champagne is the drink of the hour – in the truest sense of the word. Because in 60 minutes of the interview with Michael Spitz, his sign neither winegrower, winemaker nor champagne producer, but [Managing Director of the Main Incubator,](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-f-spitz-9b2b4435/?ref=paymentandbanking.com) we talk a lot about the sparkling wine, its proper production, storage, grapes, the best growing areas and also about whether a bottle of champagne, comparable to bottles of expensive wine, is a good investment opportunity. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/fa/ba/faba2f47-2f3e-419a-9a7d-cf4e1957f39b/content/images/paymentandbanking-com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/ama-21-neu-001.jpg) The answer in four letters: no! Nevertheless, Spitz gains a lot from this noble drink and has become a true expert over the last few years. But whoever thinks that we have been talking about alcohol all this time, rest assured: We also had many other topics, because Spitz is a long-time companion and thought leader in the financial sector and a member of various committees, including the World Economic Forum. He is also co-author of the book [„Heads of the digital finance industry“](https://www.springer.com/de/book/9783658296438?ref=paymentandbanking.com). In it he writes about „technology-oriented strategies“. In recent weeks we have already had the opportunity to talk to a number of authors in our popular interview format „Ask me anything“, including [Charles Matthew Schmidt ](https://paymentandbanking.com/?p=38318)from the Quirin Bank, [Stephen Heller](https://paymentandbanking.com/en/ask-me-anything-19-mit-stephan-heller-von-fincompare/) from FinCompare and [Frank Schwab](https://paymentandbanking.com/en/ask-me-anything-20-with-frank-schwab-from-fintech-forum/), among others board member of PayU and founder of the FintechForum. **If you like it, subscribe to the podcast at **[**sound cloud**](https://soundcloud.com/paymentandbanking?ref=paymentandbanking.com), [**Spotify**](https://open.spotify.com/show/7gX9IAeCzTgfpJFd34m4Qq?si=pCpFnVtITjSmozZyfWTi8w&ref=paymentandbanking.com)**,** [**iTunes**](https://itunes.apple.com/de/podcast/paymentandbanking-podcast/id961718019?mt=2&ref=paymentandbanking.com) **and rates it with 5 stars** ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **Subscribe**The different podcast formats (#Ask Me Anything, #NewsPodcast, #5PMClub) of paymentandbanking.com can be heard on all major podcast platforms.
