    The daily compound interest lady is a fool. If she were more disciplined , and kept her money interest for an extra year she would have $783 billion, or another year (4), she would have $1,079 trillion. Who's laughing now, if she were more disciplined she'd have several times the global economy.

Of course the gurus always have a reason why they don’t do this, some vague appeal to democracy and helping the working folks, or conversely an attack on the ruling caste: “Wall Street’s trying to suppress this information, so be a brave rebel and give me $500.”

    one of the biggest challenges with Quantitative models is that they are "situational". Once the situation that they were taking advantage of passes then they slowly become ineffective in their ability to predict market behavior and thus price direction. And the guy who used Pine Script just showed a back test, not actual results lol

    Richard was far too generous about 10X returns with crypto. Not only does the investor have to choose 3 investments that return 10X, they must invest 100% of their assets into EACH investment. I've been in the markets since 1998 and have been fortunate enough to have multiple 10X (and larger) returns over the years, but the idea of throwing every cent I have after each investment is overwhelmingly nauseating. Investing is NOT gambling. Risk management is ALWAYS priority #1. FANTASTIC video! 😀👍

    Love your channel, very grounded and sound advice. My family are chinese americans. When my parents came here , they were poor graduaate students who made $25/month back in China. But with dedicated and diligent investments, mostly in broad indexes and some real estate, they built up several millions over 25 years. I suffered along, but watch and learn from my dad, and now I'm able to expand upoon their success. There is no realistic easy way to riches, but there are lots of high probability to success roads that are long and often tough. But it's the journey that also instill the self decipline that one would need to keep thaf wealth.

But instead pick out the bad ideas from stuff that actually make sense. So yeah, as a result, it feels very educative. And less just for boosting viewer's ego by dismissing bad advice. For example, comparing stocks with dividends, and explaining the concept behind algo trading (low margin, low durability, constantly work on new algos) feels really helpful!

    @@itsacorporatething Conceptually, you have a claim to a percentage of their value if they are to be liquidated or sold, and a claim to a percentage of their potential future distribution of wealth to owners. More concretely, if the company has one million dollars on a bank account and you own 1% of the company, then conceptually you own among other things 10,000 dollars of that 1 million. However, I agree things can get more complicated for example when you add that the company might not get sold or liquidated or distribute wealth to owners for the next 10 or 20 years. So you can argue that a share in such a company is in some sense worthless, because no money will actually come out of it and back to you. The only reason why it is worth anything is that other people is willing to pay you for the share, which is pure speculation and 'greater fool'-gambling :)

It's currently stuck in 2021 so it's most recent data says we're in a low interest, low inflation bull market. Large Language Models will bullshit you with unimaginable confidence about things that are easy to disprove.

    I love these Tik Tok reactions. There are far too many gurus out there. If someone has a really successful trading strategy, they're not going to be announcing it to everyone. A big part of that reason is that if someone has a great trading strategy, it becomes less effective as more people follow the same strategy up until it disappears all together. Beyond that, there are a lot of people that get lucky who then think they have an inside view of the "stock game," and so after making money with a trading strategy then decide to mortgage their house and risk their entire life savings only to find out that most successful trading strategies tend to be fairly short-lived. Someone who can consistently beat the market over decades of time is going to make the most money not by selling books and courses but by opening their own wealth management firm and picking up customers. Otherwise, investing is not necessarily meant to be exciting. Good investments with good wealth managers largely should be running in the background and growing over time. No one wants to hear it, but the best strategy is to live on less than what you make (the bigger that gap, the better), and invest more of your income every month (after making sure your high-interest debts are paid off and you have a really good emergency savings built). It's boring for the first few years, then after awhile, it's cool to see how much more it grows and what you have invested. Everyone else pushing these schemes is really just trying to sell a course.
