Adam in your discord do you have a group that talk specifically about trade options on certain stocks. I been trying to get in with a group that talks about trade options.
Is Webull safe to use?
@@yooo13t Yes, SIPC-insured. Meaning even if they went insolvent, you are federally insured up to $500,000, including $250,000 cash. You'd only need to feel any concern about any brokerage your with if your account value is higher than this.
@@Reeseybaby Yessir
@@InTheMoneyAdam Have you been reached by Moomoo? I use them for their non-Apex clearing house that has a direct bone to pick with malicious shorts
You actually do sound like a normal person. Today was the first time I saw your channel, instantly subbed. Mad respect.
same here
Same, not being told to sub to a channel makes me want to sub
Same
One of the best. Never seen one of his videos that felt hyped up or overdone.
same...first time seeing this channel....subbed.
I'm surprised no one mentioned Biaheza in these videos. He promoted them heavily and I got to know them and used him through him.
Is he really a fianance youtuber though? His videos are more entertainment and hustle culture (showing random gigs to earn money). I do agree though that he shouldn't have promoted them. I just don't think he fits the people mentioned in this vid. I hate the listed people, huge frauds.
I was thinking the same thing. Did Biaheza ever address this?
I truly appreciate your points - exactly what I have been saying to those around me & want to tell my subscribers. Great work, sir!
I blocked his video recommendations years ago
That's a child lol, u take your advice from kids now?
I’m glad you shed light on this. Hence the “this is not financial advice disclaimer.”
Plus, you never know what people are doing behind the scenes and we don’t have the same finances to do what they do. This has been an eye opener for many for sure.
Your simple explanation of how a company can offer an 8% return was better than most financial UA-cam videos in their totality. Well done sir. Earned my subscription.
Absolutely! Same here I’m now subscribed as well.
Same here!
Breandan’s comment sold me so I subscribed
Technically the 8% return isn't totally insane since you have to hold cryptocurrency, a highly risky volatile asset, in order to get the lending return. So the risk is you have to hold a highly risky asset to get a high return, and you have to hold it in a third-party exchange, that's the other risk. So those risks honestly sound pretty in-line with the return.
100%, I watch all these guys but yeah , "anyone who knows anything about finance" which is totally true in regards to these companies
Even despite your brain injury you see things so clearly. Thank you for calling these people out. You've been critiquing the finance genre of this platform for a while and it's good to see that you aren't stopping.
@@soulreaper9453 He has a couple of videos talking about it from a few months back. He can explain it much better.
This guy does not have a brain injury he's legit! Even with a brain injury! ❤ Hope you're better everyday bro
He doesn’t have brain injury as far as I know. His brain is just swallowing.
wtf is this comment section
Anyone who couldn’t see that this was a Ponzi scheme deserves to lose it ALL
Hope you're feeling better man. Glad to see you getting back into the content creation. You're one of the good ones.
fr!
He's obviously getting better now. He spoke like he used to be, good to see.
You are the goat man. No one comes close to the amount of content and the quality that you have put out for free on youtube. Honestly, I can only name two finance channels that I follow that are not scams, You and the Plain Bagel. This is why I wish you all the best man and hope you recover.
Edit: Easy tell between you and the others, they sponsored scams for an 8% return. While you tell people of the I-bonds, which you do not get a commission for AND YOU TOLD US OF THE DOWNSIDE of freaking bonds. The differences could not be more clear. People getting paid to scam you vs a dude who talks about the risks of buy bonds.....fucking bonds......(5 years, 3 months of interest etc etc, when it changes etc etc)
Watch “the money guy” show.. Corny but I think they give good advice!
I 2nd that!
@@nathendeboer6124 yea they are kinda corny (in a good way), but they also have so much more experience and run a wealth management company as their job. Also as far as I've seen they don't really take sponsorships
Oh yes, The Plain Bagel too!
Definitely agree, Plain Bagel is great. I also like Ziptrader.
Never stop uploading. I haven't had a chance to utilize the option strategies, but I did write them down. Also, I tried so hard to get on Voyager and FTX before COVID and they both gave me problems during signup, so I went with a different one. Best decision I've ever made
Bro same back in the day it was almost impossible to sign up! Only kraken accepted me… THANK GOD LOL!
You didn’t try to get on voyager before Covid.
@@apprenticco6898 Get out of Kraken asap!
It’s clear now who to follow and unfollow on UA-cam. Anyone who shilled FTX or BlockFi lost credibility. You just got my sub!
Thank you!
Big respect to your integrity man. You did your DD and knew these high interest crypto products were bunk AND you said no to the money. They all knew and they took the money anyway.
I’m glad you are pressing on them cuz even the average joe with less than 30 minutes of research could have seen how risky blockfi and ftx was but somehow millionaire financial UA-camrs with full time staff couldn’t
30 minutes? You didn't notice that glutinous m0ss@d agent picture?
They could, I mean meet Kevin literally made videos about how risky they were. Didn't stop them taking the sponsorship money though.
not even 30 min... if things seem too good to be true... it probably is..... rule of thumb.. common sense.. or what should be common anyway
I just want to preface this by saying that your honesty comes through in your videos. I love your videos because they don't equate to hyped up garbage.
Tired of these guys, not only making bad decisions with their money, but encouraging others to do the same. You can say "it's not financial advice" all you want, but if people are following you, they are buying what you are saying.
"I apologize" has got to stop being an immediate out for people acting irresponsibly with other people's money. "I'm sorry" doesn't quite cover it anymore.
Exactly like you said. They not only got paid for the views, but also for the sponsors.
This is 100% accurate. Kudos to you for calling this out.
This entire debacle goes to show how important it is that we select our sponsorships wisely. Well said
As a viewer, it shows you why you have to be selective of these UA-camrs. I only have less than 7 people whose info can be trusted. All of them never take sponsorships apart from selling hard wallets and merchandise
In the end what does it matter? They made money anyway. They will not lose more than 3% of their subs… and they still continue to seek out new sponsorships by generating content. In one door out the other… rinse and repeat scalp the profits along the way.
@@renaissanceman5847 all while sacrificing your morality
The ones he mentions seem to lean left. Even if there are people who followed their advice to their own ruin, most likely the subs will still follow. If Fetterman can win with those people, amyone can.
...disclaimer, I don't care for either party, I just watch them from the bushes
basically.. RAID SHADOW LEGENDS is the best sponsor ever.
I am not going to lie, I fell for Tom Nash's Plantair shtick and it cost me a bit. Once I started examining more about these "finance gurus", I realized that they knew even less than I did and just grifted for whatever makes them sponsorship money. I first realize that when what they were saying was eerily similar to articles I've read and that's when the lightbulb went up to look back on other things they've done. Unfortunately many finance, FIRE and "not financial advice" blogs/videos are the same trend.
When it comes to money, trust no one but your own due diligence. Good on you for not selling your hard earned reputation for a quick buck. You've won a lifelong sub from me.
Kudos for being one of the real ones. Thanks for being aware and spreading that awareness.
Adam, not only are Firewatch backgrounds the best backgrounds for your PC; but you deserve every “I told you so” you can muster. I’ve said from the beginning back when I was taking notes from your options courses: “this guys passes all my bullshit detectors.” You have always been a genuine human with the drive to be more of a teacher than an abuser, and everyone here will always appreciate that. We love you for who you are and how candid you can be. Never change. (Unless it’s positive moves on yours and Eric’s diagnoses!)
I'm seeing a lot of people crying about UA-camrs who recommended the FTX platform. Better grow up kids. Mistakes are on you. You don't get to pass the buck and blame/point fingers at someone else. There are rules to this game. Rule #1 No one knows anything! Just opinions. You are fully responsible for your investment or speculation decisions.
This is a totally fair flex of integrity 💪
I like this adam. I will admit I've put your channel on the back burner but this channel is the first one I watched to learn options. Keep up the good fight man. Happy to see you doing better!!
What you taught me over the past few years allowed me to make a $30,000 return off of a $5k start, and it helped me get through some financial issues. You didn't promise anything. You just armed me with the knowledge to manage risk and reward with new tools (options/spreads). You're the real deal, and that's why I chipped in on your Patreon. Thank you.
It’s really refreshing to see this type of video, where the content creator be honest and alert viewers to do their DD. No money grabbing intent but more of a psa. Makes me glad I’m a subscriber and looking forward to your future contents.
This is why you’re the only one I ever watch on financial UA-cam. The amount of clickbaity scammy bullshit I see everywhere else is not only annoying but also kinda depressing. Mad respect to you dude
Clear value tax is pretty good
Been with you since day 1 and never switched up. You've taught me everything from risk management to calls and put options. I may be down in the market, but I can say I'm not getting robbed like these other folks.
You are worth listening to because you actually teach us about options.
Best financial youtuber, and by far the best source of beginner options information. I am glad your back putting out quality content!
Minority mindset and clear value tax are good too
Adam...this is the exact reason why I watch your videos. You provide legitimate analysis and breakdowns on financial investment tools and strategies. Thank you for being you!
Even when no one asks you to comment or opine on something you come out with the exact right take. Love you man. Keep it up.
As someone who was able to avoid the whole situation and watch from afar, it's pretty amusing to see how manipulated everything was. Some people got absolutely clobbered though, no good. As a general reminder, this is why it's good to a.) be diversified across several assets and PLATFORMS, and b.) never be overleveraged. You can have margin and leverage, but it needs to be at reasonable levels so you don't get absolutely BTFO if things like this happen.
thankfully I never used FTX and I always move my assets to a wallet, an exchange is centralised as much as Solana. ppl over leverage because greed sets in and unfortunately there are tons of maxi's convincing them why you should only invest in a couple assets instead of diversifying their portfolios. Luna and Celcius being a prime example and now FFT and now CRO.
How would anyone trust 1$ of their hard earned money with SBF. A fat vegan who dresses like a homeless. What a joke, everyone deserves to lose their money.
@@Old-Boy_BEbop Everyone looks like a genius in a bull market, but that's why you diversify. Everyone is making sick gains, until they're not. It's not about how much you make, it's how you mitigate potential losses.
And psychologically, mathematically, a loss will hurt you more than a win helps you.
Adam, you are thw GOAT of the UA-cam financial channels. The knowledge I’ve gained from you has been life changing. You deserve millions of subs.
super dope as always. thank you brother! (also to your twin, the editor, this was a superior edit. that needle drop on the outro… WOW!)
BROKE IT DOWN LIKE A BOSS - KEEPING IT REAL BROTHER HOPE YOU ARE WELL X
not only that they funnel their ad money to "investments" pull the rub on their audience and nothing happens some actually get more views and more money....
I'm really glad you're back to making content Adam. You're exactly what we need right now after all this BS!
Wow, Adam, your ACTUAL, practical, thorough, tangible understanding of finance, is what protected your followers(Long time ones like me) from all that bullshit and for that I thankyou. Not just that I'm just incredibly impressed because your true finance skills have separated you from these hoaxsters and gurus, and this is proof of that. You literally should be the one with all the followers not those dudes.
I totally agree he is a down to earth genuine guy
🎯 💯 They apologize and get to move on with their lives without repercussions despite marketing themselves as financial gurus who should of did their homework on what they're marketing to their audience. I completely agree. It's careless.
Well said!! and thank you for the Urban Lullaby link. I heard it for the first time on your channel. Every time I've heard it since then, it reminds me of your channel. I've always wondered how I would find it, didn't even know the name. So, a year later (today) I looked in the "Show more" description. I'm sure it's been there the whole time. lol Thanks for all you do on your channel!
Man, you're back! I'm really glad to see you here again. I dig the content a lot and your honesty above all. You should know you were one of the few UA-camrs who inspired me to create my own finance channel. I wish you all the best and again, I'm very glad we have you back! 🤜🤛
I've been watching your vids for a long time, this is by far my favorite thus far. I think most of us viewers, myself included, don't fully understand the business of UA-cam. It takes a lot of balls to say what you did in this vid and to essentially "take on" some of the biggest financial channels. Good on you.
Good work bro, my followers brought you up as another youtuber that didn't take the money either. COMMUNITY OVER PROFITS BABY!
Let’s Go 🙏🏼
"I'm the only person who talks like a normal human being when they're talking to a camera".
True...and keep it up and you will continue to do well. No reason to keep comparing. Keep it real and you will be rewarded.
Bro not going to lie, mad props to you for doing research before taking on a sponsorship. That says a lot. I always admire someone that only promotes something that they truly believe in, despite the amount offered to them.
You are ONE of the FEW peeps I trust on UA-cam…forget the noise and keep up the good work dude 👍
Damn this felt good to watch. Those channels have always been sus AF. Always hawking out sponsorship links and pumping out videos like full time UA-camrs.
This video had me laughing all the way through with the jabs at these guys. So entertaining and glad to see you are doing well Adam!!
I was getting into trading heavily around 2019-2021 and YOU were the best. I was getting the best explanation from you and could soak up your content QUICK. And now I have little trading skills and to you I give thanks.
I got hella fakeness from the others especially from Andrei, 5 videos in and I could tell he was fraudulent. Now, you’re telling me about the minimalist living and Pokémon cars back and fourth and MAN. I’m not suprised. You’ve kept it real, and for that I appreciate you!
This needs to be the most genuine video I've seen covering these topics and posting truths. I followed those guys for the longest time, but put 2 and 2 together a while ago and could not agree more with everything you stated. If they really were operating successful businesses, they wouldn't be on UA-cam because they wouldn't have TIME to go over all of these topics.
Thank you for talking like an actual human being and yes, people make mistakes, it is how we grow and learn. I hope we all learn from this experience. (I never invested in Blockchain either so no skin off my back there but I feel for the ones who are learning the hard way.)
So Kevin selling all his real estate right at the top and starting a 30 million dollar company called house hack wasnt profitable?? Lmao no he’s making a lot of money behind the scenes, not just from UA-cam
@@tradingtactics7541 If he really is, then good for him. I suppose the point I'm trying to make here, is that these creators probably do not care about you, or me, as much as you like to think they do.
First time seeing your channel and you really laid it all out succinctly. Well done!
Great video. I have followed these UA-camrs for meany years. I like the info put I have never bought into what they are selling or clicked on their sponsor link. Before I buy a stock I have done my own research regales of what a UA-camr might say about that stock. This is my first time watching your video, thank you for posting.
Much respect! I haven't commented much on your channel. I know the stuff you've gone through. I hope you get better. Keep your integrity and people will see it.
love to hear from you adam. I had a chunk of change in usdc, cause i heard about blockfi from some homies when i was 18. signed up and started throwing money in. my yield so far was about 4% of what i had in the last 8 or so months. sometimes all it takes is someone else to point out a red flag. peace and love gentlemen
to add to this, it was a hedge against my balls to the wall robinhood tesla nio google account that has also been performing suboptimally. time to reevaluate and take another stab the the market and personal finance as a whole.
You just earned my subscription dude I've been telling everybody this since the crash of FTX and he actually even before like with uphold and FTX, and others.. I'm like "how do they give 8%?. That's sketch AF!"
I spoke to a colleague in December 2021 about how much we had in Crypto and when to pull the pin and get out, we both come from a “stable” financial services sector background. When the conversation finished I realised that some people (experienced investors in this case) are more comfortable with risk than others, even though a friend and colleague is trying to highlight the risk/reward dichotomy. The “win” was worth more than the thought of potentially losing. The amount of money he lost this year was spectacular, we still have lunch the odd time and he maintains that it’ll “bounce back” I bought his Model 3 (ridiculously cheap) from him a few weeks ago, and no, I didn’t pay with Crypto 😅
Stable is the word you took good money and bought air.
why would he sell it to you ridiculously cheap when he can easily sell for the same price he bought it for if not more.
Love it. You and Coffee are two of the few shining lights in finance UA-cam. You have my respect for chiming in on this. And I love the quip about Jeremy's nonsensical success here lmao. Hope you're doing well!
Jeremy baffles me. Who watches him? His explaining after the facts take place is the worst thing i have ever seen. The guy knows absolutely nothing. If proof needed, TTCF and HNST just to start.
Add Plain Bagel and Patrick Boyle. Highly recommended.
@@gregtomamichel973 Yeah, you're right. They deserve some love too!
While we're here, I'll throw in one more, much smaller channel: Capital Mindset.
@@altairjb Honestly. His diction is enough to drive me nuts. He talks in circles, finds new phrases that sound good to him then gets stuck on them. He can't spell, can't interpret data. The only metric he cares about is revenue. Meanwhile, TTCF is veering towards bankruptcy with an outlook of 0-3% gross margin! Jeremy said he wants to buy more!
Let's not forget about Voyager. He was heavily invested in them and they went bust.
@@stupidmonkey151 revenue and new skus he tracks on the supermarket aisles lol in a sense, i like that he has such a great following. Someone needs to be on the other side of my trades and there's no short of people who are willing to be ahahaha jokes aside, it depresses me to see so many people following him
Just subscribed after seeing this. My man kept it real & genuine the whole time, while Graham is busy whistling past the graveyard still. You got my respect brother
Hey Adam, I have followed your channel for more than two years now. When I didn't see any videos posted I figured you just up and left the financial space. So sad to have learned of your deteriorating health conditions. I pray that GOD will hold you and lift you throughout the rest of your life. I am launching a UA-cam channel and have placed a link to your channel on my landing page as I want people to hear real financial and investing advice which I believe you offer. Once I started listening to your take on investing and implementing the strategies you spoke of, I started to have much greater consistency in terms of profits. Thanks a million for all you do. Blessings upon You!
Robert
Dude much props for keeping it real! I was always sketched out by the super high APY’s…. If they were legit you would think Warren Buffer would drop a couple billion into one of these
Man, I’ve been following this guy around the time GameStop went crazy for the first time, and am never disappointed by his content. The comment section seems supportive of this guy for his straight to the point / high brow humor. I love your mind my man, especially liked your videos regarding your personal struggle, as I could relate. It’s encouraging and refreshing to see a person on UA-cam who isn’t blinded by insatiable greed. From a twin to a twin, it’s great to see a genuine guy try to show his perspective on the massive gray area of finance that is the stock market/ crypto market. Thank you for your time in these videos. I hope you and your twin’s health has continued to improve
Adam is honestly one of the realest people left on this platform and that's why i trust him even if i disagree with him sometimes. Good to see he is doing better
He’s blatantly honest about things, sadly it doesn’t sell as well as the scammy stuff and most ppl are emotional not logical.
I remember the first vid I watched of his about options he said “now pick a stock you want to lose money on”, that sense of honest humor … gotta love it
@@carsonhunt4642 Yep his honesty is so refreshing. There is literally no point to be part of the lemming train of average viewers who watch the bigger channels. They truly don't bring anything to the table.
Appreciate the candid video.
The pandemic was a HUGE money grab for financial content creators, of course folks in Crypto, and folks selling Discord chats.
Most of us felt investing/trading was so easy and we had access to the “insiders”. We didn’t know we were just riding a huge wave…that was actually a tsunami…😢
You can still make money trading obviously, but depending on who you follow. There's a ton of fake ass bull market traders selling groups and courses, peeps who really don't know shit. The trading space has been pretty scummy for awhile
thanks for addressing this man. As a technologist, I was never able to get real answers from other technologists in the space and that kept my money safe. I did buy on Coinbase but just pulled everything out of Crypto. The house of cards has been exposed for sure.
You are literally my favorite UA-camr. I hope you make a fast recovery, much love brother.
Financial UA-camrs got me invested into finances but as I grew in portfolio and age I knew I had to be responsible for my own purchases and not blindly trust someone just because I respected and admired them at the time, I'm glad I did
You are 100% correct, these youtubers are making millions on likes and sponsorships. Finally, someone tells the truth. I do appreciate your channel, love the Options classes. At least you offer something legitimate.
This is why we love ya ITM!!!!! you are the most transparent helpful guy on the financial YT front. Thanks for all you do man. Blessings to you and hope your health continues to improve.
Thanks for coming back and reminding us that youtube financial advisors are content creators, not investors.
I'm happy you feel better. 😃
I love this guy. This guy right here... He's a "good fella". Straight talk. Tells it like it is. Good to see you my friend. Glad you're doing well. RESPECT ✊🏼
Brother, you continue to bring huge value both in what you teach, as well as what you DON’T do. I’m so glad to see your health improving and your spirit rising. Be well!
You taught me how to trade options a long time ago but today I am definitely subbing. You have to take the financial UA-camrs opinion with a grain of salt considering how quickly they jump back and forth from the bullish/bearish stance. Its sad seeing the channels that are eternal bulls and watching their positions that have been destroyed in this market but everyday they come back with another opinion supporting their view.
Love all the advice and the way you keep it real. I hope all the best for your health!
How do you not love this guy HE's definitely worth listening to, definitely pray for your health and more real videos like this. I still watch his Reddit losing videos. Keep up the good work Adam.
Adam, I followed your advice and I lost my shit. I lost my house and my dog.
Kidding! LOL! You've been awesome for the year I've been following you. I tried the options a while back, but I ended up not making a lot, so I bought the stocks and I've still got em. I'm learning, tho! I'm upside down, so actually had I listened to you, I would've SOLD them at the small gain and been better off. So much for me wanting the damn stock! LOL!
It'll all come back, tho. I ain't worried about it. But you're the MAN for doing your research and not suggesting FRX to folks.
I really respect you. Especially everything you were and continue to go through. the money you could have received to sponsor ftx would have really helped you financially and even then you had our best interest at mind and shut them down. Believe actions, not words.
Savage truth, man. I'm glad people are calling these scammers out. These people love to try and dunk on people like Cramer, but they're just low-rent, younger versions of his dumbass.
This is why I'm rooting so hard for your heath to take an uptick for real. We can't lose the most scrupulous advice and instruction on the platform and get stuck with nothing but the scam artists.
Bravo, bro. I love the confrontation of these 1% UA-cam gurus. Keep it coming
Hope you are doing alright health and mental wise, you've been through a lot, man. All the best to you. And thank you for this video! Very informative.
Love the real talk. Everyone should listen to this! Hope you are doing well
All the comments on Jikhs channel roasting him mentioned your channel, and here I am. First time I've seen any if your videos, I LOVE your style. Way to call people out on their crap. [Subscribed]
Thanks for always being straightforward and telling it like it is!
Appreciate this Adam. You are truly one of the real ones on UA-cam.
You taught me options years ago and never promoted some BS to me. You taught me the ways of thinkorswim, not blockfi. THANKS ADAM!
The honesty and integrity that comes from Adam is what makes his video's so valuable... I have respect for you Adam and congratulations on having ethical core values. Cheers!
I actually really like you telling it how it is with these other UA-camrs. I used to follow Jeremy a lot, but not anymore for awhile now
This is why I love this man. You never asked us for shit man and shared so much with us. Thank you Adam 🙏
eh... i wouldn't go that far lol. to be fair, he did start a GoFundMe for his medical treatments. which is good to see that he's looking more healthy
Facts after facts. Respect brother. Only people like us go up in the end.
Just discovered your page. Love the refreshing perspective. Appreciate you talking like a normal person on camera
I appreciate you and how you carry yourself and your channel. Hope you’re doing better big dog. Keep kicking ass.
Shots fired. Glad to see you feel better keep ‘em coming. 🎉😊
just started following, every single point you made makes sense. ty!
I think most of the useful information I have ever really learned was from you.
Integrity pays in the long run. Appreciate you and your channel brother.
I’m a retired finance guy and I have viewed some of these guys and my opinion is they spoke a lot of crap.
Ironically, for “finance youtubers” their due diligence seems poor. “You’re going to pay me how much?” That was where it started and ended it seems. In many places around the world Financial advisers can face hefty penalties and jail time for “spruiking” questionable “investments” that expose clients to high risk without a scrap of due diligence. But hey this is UA-cam so they get a get out of jail free pass.
I really get sick of the “this isn’t financial advice” guys it kind of is.
I do like what you do. New subscriber.
I remember watching these guys at first, but eventually realized that they are full of it. They are great at uploading well made videos regularly which makes them rank better in the algorithm.
Yea I started and subscribed to Andrei channel when he was around 120k subscribers and just starting. Unsubscribe after a year later for the reasons you mentioned and you can see they are in it for financial gain more then anything. Bet there is an media company behind all these UA-cam channels pushing their products with these UA-camrs as influencers.
Finally someone with integrity. You've earned my respect and subscription.
Facts
I really do appreciate how you talk to Us(The Camera) its refreshing. The topic for the video is great, also how you presented it.
This is why you're the only financial youtube channel i follow. Love ya dude, hope you've been feeling and doing better!
Thanks for keeping it real and keeping your subscribers' and viewers' best interests in mind!
Adam, you are the voice of reason. But to your point, people should use their brain and think for themselves. Jim Cramer of CNBC recently likened Sam Bankman-Fried to being a modern day JP Morgan. Really? He also swore that Bear Stearns was liquid and strong mere days before it imploded. Your advice about yields is also spot on; if someone is offering you yields of 8%... up to 19% recently, you should know that it isn't riskless, not by any means.
Keep up the good work, sir. I've been is risk management virtually my entire career and have seen so many stories of "geniuses" who turned out to be nothing more than charlatans looking to pad their own pockets. I hope that you're feeling well these days.
Keep ‘em coming Adam! Love the honesty!
SO GLAD to see you doing better!!
