Just received it about 30 mins ago.. Thanks Gary.. I don't watch MSM or buy papers or mags but found you here on YT. As I mentioned on X, remember those of us 60+ who are also in the same position of you lovely younger ones. 🥰
Yes, agreed. it’s not just our kids. I’m 52 , I’m the same shit economic position as my kids.
63 and feel worse as missed the boom.
Been listening to Gary for about a year. 71 year Irish woman living in Scotland. I so get the message. Proselytising in fact, have recommend everyone to buy it and listen to the central message.
Makes me feel a bit hopeful.
Already downloaded and onto second chapter.
Congratulations Gary, brilliant and essential.
Hold the line, Kate. We'll win in the end
Excellent, a boomer ally
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Excellent book Gary. Received it yesterday. Good Luck to you and your team, you are doing a fantastic job. I’ve have learnt a lot about the real economy from your videos
Mate, if it helps sales, do as many "buy my book" posts as you can 🙂 You've had the experience, you've done the work, and the all important things is now to get the word out there.
I genuinely believe, your message has the possibility to change so much that's wrong with society.
We can't blame traders for playing the game, but we can demand that the rules of the game are changed, for the benefit of the majority of the population.
I've been waiting for the best part of 35 years for someone to talk sense, when it comes to economics and policy. And now, you're the man!
I've so much time and respect for you, and I'm sure that's echoed all over the country.
My local Waterstones had them in yesterday, went out and got its immediately after watching your interview on Novara. I'm not a very quick reader but seemed to breeze through the first chapter last night. Extremely well written and very accessible for people like myself who aren't the strongest readers. Thank you for the work you do, Gary!
Novara seem like a pretty weird organisation. Surprised Gary did something with them
About 3 hours into the audiobook, very easy to listen to! Credit to your narration skills
How is it?
@@davidlewis4013 Fantastic! I've been listening in between work - already 75% though, will probably finish it tomorrow!
@@davidlewis4013 loved it, story telling to educate you - not straight up education
@@TheSecondSlice yeah I got it in the end too. It's awesome.
Good luck Gary. Let's hope your message reaches enough people who can force a change and fix the mess this country has become!
I've read nearly half of The Trading Game, and will probably finish it tonight. You are right- it's really good. It's better than really good- it's excellent, and it's the book that people need right now. People are fed up and they're ready to hear your message. I think you're going to hit #1, so the channel will blow up, too. Mad respect from Vermont!
Just finished Audiobook; brilliantly narrated Gary. Japanese, Scouse and US accents are spot on! It’s gripping and really well written. The piece that is missing for me is I kept waiting for some kind of understanding behind hoarding all the money that you’d earned- to the point of in the early days being reluctant to chip in rent towards your keep at your parents, not wanting to furnish your own flat, buy yourself some well deserved new trainers etc.
There didn’t seem to be any resolve around this even at the end, which for such a personal memoir ( and confession even!) left the reader hanging.
All in all though, fantastic memoir and really well written.
🙏
Ordered mine 2 days ago on the back of your interview with J O'Brien. Can't wait to read.
Best of luck.
Same!
Yea just saw that. He's sitting in a twenty pound kitchen. Must be broke but blagging it out 😂
Ditto
@@ciararespect4296 Or has (and likes) money but isn't materialistic? Like Warren Buffet who hasn't bought a tie in years but could buy Thailand.
Same here 👍
Started the audiobooks last night, and I’m done now. Brilliant and insightful, I’m still low key impressed shock about many things shared in there
I'm loving the book so far, it's really gripping. For anyone considering buying it you definitely wont regret it. Let's get Gary to number 1 and get his message out there
My copy has arrived today. I'll start reading this evening.
Hi Gary, only heard about you yesterday, watched the interview with James O'Brien and bought a signed copy of the book today in Waterstones on the back of it. Your message goes right to the heart of this country's post Brexit malaise. We have a kind of sickness, you can feel it. Good luck getting the message across.
Brilliant book. Listened on Audible. Excellent from start to finish.
Gary just finished reading the book, good for you, you got out, before they devoured you, took your soul, sucked out your bone marrow, those bastards know what they are doing with you, they trawl the world, looking for rare people like you, knowing full well you're going to be creative and make more money for the bank, they can't do that you see! ....you made them a lot of money, you deserved every penny. And most importantly you got out at the top, and kept you're sanity, well done I salute you mate!
I have just been informed that your book is on the way to me in France. Very much looking forward to it, especially after hearing you with Aaron Bastani & James O'Brien. hopefully many people will read it and learn something. Thanks for everything you're doing.
My copy got delivered earlier today! Thanks for the work Gary let’s hope it goes to number one and more importantly spreads the message!
Waiting on mine to be delivered!
First book I have ever bought! Aged 40
It was waiting for me last night when I got home and I sat down to read it straight away! Will be finished before the weekend. Very well written and I can’t wait for you to next write about wealth inequality. Over and above that, I’m hoping you’ll get together respected experts in a four horsemen type of panel and help establish a public consensus on fixing wealth inequality! 🎉
Congrats, Gary. My pre-order arrived today. Good luck at reaching #1.
It is great to see your message getting louder! I did my little bit and ordered your new book. Arrived today and I'm looking forward to getting stuck in to it. Keep fighting the good fight, you are gaining traction!
Congratulations Gary! Very excited to read it through fully. Massive supporter and cannot express how grateful I am for the work you’re doing! Keep going we need to have a voice like yours when ours are unheard
Well done Gary. You seem to be forming a formidable movement. Please use this momentum wisely.
pre-ordered on Amazon.. hopefully arriving sometime today ..good luck for number one
Got mine shipped to my parent’s place. I’m getting them to read it and then I will read it when I come back the UK at the end of the year.
Yes Gary! Got the audiobook and bought the hardback to support the cause. If there are other ways I can get involved let me know. If you suggest ways I can help then I’m on board.
Just picked up The Trading Game in Dublin airport a few days ago while going on holidays. Great book, I find it hard to put it down. Will be getting a few more copy’s for friends of mine when I’m back home. Looking forward also to watching your content on UA-cam 👍🏻
Well done Gary, bought the book, there is a momentum to your movement now and you're finally getting heard. Can you re-promote that original video from June 2020 as that would hit home even more now.
Agreed
I’ve just finished listening to your audiobook.
What an eye opener!
I couldn’t stop listening.
You send such a powerful message. Thank you for your story, I’ve recommended it to others.
Just finished reading the book. Great read. Well done Gary. No housework done as I’ve been buried in the pages. Hopefully many will see the light after reading your book and we will stand together for the benefit of all instead of a few.
Thanks Lyn!
Thank you very much Gary for everything you do!!!!!!
Congrats - I can see your book has shot into first place on the Times Bestsellers list!!! This proves that you’re articulating what we’ve all suspected!!
Awesome stuff!
This is by far the most important channel on youtube.
And this book and what comes from it will hopefully only push your message further. Bought my ebook copy today, want to get the hardback for my best friend as a present for his birthday.
Thank you Gary for your work.
Just tuned here, makes alot of sense, fascinating listening to your story, will be getting the book
Just read your book in 2 days straight. Loved it! Well done you. I am now going to pass it to a close relative who is ex-LSE and loves Japan!
You really are a bright light in dark times. Loving the book and so glad you weren't an oboe player.......😊
Just finished the audio book. Wow Gary wow.
Not only a great story but well told.
First book in a long while I just could not stop!
I wish you all the success in your new direction and would love to see you involved in the (new) gov in the future!
I hope you're in a much happier place now and wish you all the happiness in the future.
Just bought it. Thanks Gary looking forward to reading it.
Just finished your book this morning - I loved it so much I've also bought a copy for my son for "essential reading"! Not just informative, the book is deeply personal and hugely entertaining. A must read for anyone even remotely interested in economics, finance and big business.
Thanks boss!
I bought it on 20 March - although you did get to No1 without my help 🌝
Good work Gary 💫
Finished it in the first weekend of getting it. So good!!
Nearly finished the audible version of the book Gary. Was gutted when you mentioned it doesn't count towards the charts 😂cos I'd love to support it any way possible. You're a great narrator - this added another dimension to it. I'm in my mid 30s and very disheartened with the economic situation in the UK. I feel this book is extremely important for people my age. Your brutal honesty is much appreciated as a reader/listener.
Hi Gary , heard you on LBC on Wednesday, found what you said interesting. Will put your book on my birthday list . I’ve just subscribed and listen some more
Got down to Waterstones and picked up my signed copy this afternoon :-) I really hope you get the top sales slot so that your message gets even more mainstream recognition. Spreading the world as best I can. Keep going Gary!
Book was incredible Gary! I listened to the audiobook, thought it was a fantastic touch that you narrated it too. It's the best book I've read in a few years, thank you so much for publishing it.
Just finished reading your book - literally. It is a very powerful and compelling personal story. Your passion for fighting against inequality in society is something that shines through the whole thing. I was genuinely quite shocked to read how badly the relations with your old employer went bad at the end. I suppose, if I'm going to be 100% honest, I did feel some little degree of sympathy with your boss, this Caleb dude. After all, he did give you a 1-in-a-million chance to get very rich very quickly... I dunno...I guess there were other issues...like mental health and what not. I hope you are in a better place now.
I'm glad you feel some sympathy for Caleb. I really wanted to make a morally nuanced cast of characters without anyone being 100% good or 100% bad
Just purchased. Look forward to reading it.
Just finished reading The Trading Game. I really enjoyed reading it, it's the best book I've read in ages 😎 It's written in a really human and readable way and your voice shines through every page. Thank you👏
My brother just sent me this link didnt know anythi ng about this guy, but very excited to read it as just ordered it !! ❤
Right now, already at number 5 on Amazon. Well done!!!
Congratulations, can't wait to read it. Thanks for everything you're doing!
Congrats Gary! Such a huge milestone, keep doing what you're doing 👍
I’m loving the book! Great work Gary.
Arrived in the post today!!! Thanks Gary!
My copy arrived on Wednesday (March 6) and by Thursday I'd finished it. I couldn't put it down. It's not just a fascinating story, it's also very well written. Always rivetting, sometimes funny, and (especially towards the end) sometimes very sad. It certainly deserves to reach no. 1 in the charts. I really hope you'll go on to write a sequel about your time at Oxford University! Very best wishes.
Brilliant book, got the audio version. Excellent that Gary narrated it himself. Definitely recommend this book
Thanks Gary for spreading a much needed message.
Received and binge read. Really enjoyed and plenty of food for thought. Thanks Gary
Got it!! Thanks, excited to tuck into it!
Just finished Part 2. Really well written, somehow you make us care about these people even though we know by now what they are responsible for. Here's hoping for #1 at the weekend.
Fantastic book! Read it word for word. 10/10. Love you too geezer, keep up the great work. My background similar to you, worked in Investment banking for the last 25 years, in Product Control (Accountant), it all your Traders PnL REPORTS daily and looked at the balance sheet and did all your IPV for open positions. Again, love your your channel, top man, amazing knowledge
Got my signed copy (and with a small coffee stain) this weekend. Just finished it - incredibly gripping, educational and a little heartbreaking too (Wizard). Passing it on to my sons now. Thank you Gary, for sharing your story and for building this movement.
Hi Gary, I bought your book and read it in three days! So impressed that I bought another copy and sent it to my son, so that’s two more to add to your total 😊.
Hi Garry, I just finished your book. Received it yesterday by mail and loved it. 6h of sleep and I kept going in the morning. Nice window into the banking industry and the mechanics of establishing power over people. Work I would never be interested in doing. Greetings from Leipzig, will follow your next moves.
Brilliant 👊 you have done what most just cannot. Hold your head high. Congrats to you and your family. Steady now….🙂
Congratulations Gary, bring on the knowledge to the masses!
Just finished reading it. Very good read. Reminds me in a way of my first big job in London.. 1961 after arriving from Belfast. Working for the biggest bookie in London. First assignment was Bethnal Green and the Mile End Road.
Different planet then of course. Live in California today.
Only one person could play Gary in the movie.
Louis McCartney.. Currently playing the lead in "Stranger Things.. The First Shadow" at the Phoenix théâtre.
Keep up the good work Gary.. You have a good heart.
Got it on audible today & I got 4:20 left. It’s a fucking wicked book. Better written than I expected & you did a good job on the audio. I have noticed a couple of slip ups where you forget to switch accents lol! I’m probably going to buy the physical book too!
Wish you luck with the book sales, Gary. You deserve it. I've been following your story and you've come a long, long way. I appreciate that you keep fighting the good fight despite how bleak the outlook seems. Good luck with everything.
Came into my audible this morning had it on pre order 👍🏻 wishing you well you are a good sort. Keep up the message 👏👏
Yes Gary. Bought the hard copy. Thank you bruvna. ❤🎉🙏🙌✨️🔥
Ordered a signed copy from the local bookshop, big ups Gary for everything you do!
I absolutely love this book. I don't usually do audio books but hearing Gary read this is even better than I could've imagined. 5 stars mate! Thank you so much for what you're doing. Perfect listening for a cycle round Ilford.
Really enjoying the audiobook on the commute from West Sussex into the city …needlessly dark city restaurants for lunch.. chameleon brokers …BusHead 😂 - so accurate, I swear I’ve met some of these characters on nights out before
Fuck it, just bought the book as well 👊🏼
Well done Gal! bloody good read
Gary’s book is so relatable, and for someone who worked on the trading floor for many years working with the traders, it has brought back so many memories of people on the trading floor, the pressure, the gremlins when pnl is off( which happens a lot),the tantrums, the joys and the thrill. I’m glad you managed to put it all down in writing. Thank you for this wonderful book which I so wish it can be a starter pack for everyone who wants to start a career in banking or work in the trading floor or just curious on what goes down.🎉🎉 Thanks again Gary
Congrats Gary! We need you! thank you for what you are doing !
I’ve got the audio book and I’m 3 hours in. Love it. Really good stories thank you
Got it yesterday and finished it today. Cracking read- very well written and a good entry point for people new to your mission.
Keep up the great work Gary ❤
Will be buying the book, listened to your interview with James O’Brien really good and brilliant look into the world of trading etc for some one who is not from that world.
I remember many years ago ie 2001 I went to the university of East London and at the freshers fair met a fella who was doing the same course as me. He had a mate who he called up, when his mate arrived she was driving a small white brand new plate VW golf, already the insurance on that would have been insane for a young person to be driving, as we drove round to the other campus over by London City Airport I found out she was a trader and worked in city Bank, already had a two floor pent house on the wharf key and was financially self sufficient…from your own story I can now see she must have got in at a good grammar school and progressed into the LSE to find her self as a trader at such a young age which then gave her financial freedom, like your self she was also from a working class back ground. Where she is now I have no idea as I lost touch with the fella I met at that freshers fair so don’t even know where he is now.
Just finished! What a fantastic read!
What a read.
Recieved the book last week and it instantly captivated me, fascinated me and appauled me.
I finished the book at the weekend with a genuine feeling of respect, and love for the mind of the man that wrote it.
What a fantastic piece of work it is, and a catharsis it must have been to tell the story.
I cannot recommend it enough.
Well done Gary.
Received mine in the post today. Looking forward to reading it.
Good luck for a number. 1. You deserve it. I’m so impressed with you. Your mum and dad must be so proud. Good luck with your book.
Just finished the book, what an incredible story - so well written as well, congratulations Gary!
Listened to the entire book on release day. It's amazing and funnier at times than i expected. But also incredibly moving to go on this journey with you. Some of the stuff with you and Harry was particularly moving. I can hear the cost to you, and others will too.
Thanks boss!
Well done!
Hello Gary, big fan of your work! ❤ I'm thoroughly enjoying your book; it's proving to be an insightful listen. Very best wishes, ulla
Just got my copy on Audible ! Thanks and love from Australia 🌻💜
Great article in the Guardian about the budget...spot on mate!
Arrived in the post today... Looking forward to reading it.
Just got mine!! Can't wait to dig into it!
So frickin exciting! I've got the audio but will get the hardback copy also to boost the charts. Amazing work Gary.
Well done just ordered it . Thank you Gary.😅😊😊
The book was excellent, it's hard to believe this is your first book. I hope this will be followed up. Good luck Gary
Was sold out by midday at the Waterstones on Tottenham Court Road! Had to go Charing Cross to pick one up!
Just finished listening to it. Great book, compelling and entertaining!
Congrats! I'm going to order my copy!
I loved the book, I bought the hard copy for myself and another as a gift for a friend am really looking forward to savouring and reading.
I also purchased this on audible, your narration really brought it to life for me. It was relatable, poignant in so many of your descriptions. I cried, I laughed and I learnt. Thank you for bringing this out into the world, it will touch many people’s lives 🙏🏼❤️
