He is the author of several feature-length film scripts, which have won numerous awards at international film competitions.

Matt Rogala, despite tackling tedious financial topics, strives to deliver them in a way that makes them enjoyable to read. It's worth quoting one of his reviews of the book "Open-End Investment Funds. The Rules Are Simple" The book is more than good. Although it covers tedious topics, it reads like a good thriller.
