I love how he is selling that fact that it's so easy to just invest $40k on software and have it be that successful. I feel sorry for the people that get suckered into get rich quick schemes.

He makes some good points using common logic. I found a lot of stuff calling him a fraud and saying his persona was a sham. I can't verify that so let's say he is legit. If legit he has done very well at a young age even if he plays with light sabers.

You guys think his arrogance has something to do with his age or he is just acting it up for the camera? One thing I love about this forum is how we have so many millionaires here but everyone is humble and polite.

That's the first time I've ever seen him and probably the last.

However, in the minute I watched him at 2x speed by the way, he did make one good point.

Anyway, he's not a watch guy and it appears that the watch was just a prop for whatever point he was trying to make anyway.

So, what?

Yeah, "I make 1000% return on all of my software investments!" said no one ever except for this guy.

In any case, I can't fault someone for buying luxury goods and then later thinking maybe they shouldn't have bought them. I think this all the time about myself and might even be one of the silly people he talks about who spends tons of money on "cool stuff".

He owns a watch and apparently doesn't know it has complications, much less how to use them. That makes me sad.

He apparently prefers practicing braggadocio and the art of using profanity over learning how to use his gear. Like school in the summertime - no class.

so his "useful" advice is not to spend money that you can somehow guarantee a 20x return in 3 months on

A.K.A. not to spend $900,000 on a $45,000 rolex

thanks for that

now if he really wants to give advice which is of any value whatsoever then tell me what to invest in that yields this 20x ROI : dummy:

My thoughts exactly.

As I see it, He tries to make a point that "anyone" could make a 600K return on a 40K investment. Well not in my profession. Most do a 600K investment, and then end up broke and a million in debt after a few years. Should we stop having restaurants then? Probably not, as people seem to enjoy eating out!

I'm sure he has gotten lucky with software, and he may be great at it. But I just can't think it's THAT easy to make "millions of millions dollars". Perhaps once or twice, but the competition is fierce in software.
