      So great to see you doing well and getting some recognition as a top channel in the area – if only more people saw the errors of their ways with other channels

    9. quietstrm11 on

      Stellar, as always. One of the things I most appreciate about you, James—besides all of the work you put into making this such a quality channel—is your ability to (still) put yourself into the shoes of "average" investors like me who have much less experience, expertise, and knowledge. I love these "devil's advocate" discussions, too. True edutainment! Many, many thanks! 🙏

      Thank you James for taking the time to answer the questions in my Challenge. You knocked it out of the park. I hope it stirs some passive investors out of the delusion that 9 percent returns on average will get them to where they want to be.

    21. Allan Parkins on

      So happy now😂 missed getting into your Patreon last year been checking regularly and am now a member I honestly feel really happy 😃 thanks so much for all you and your team do for us and more importantly the animals 🐈🐈

      I prefer also to chose my own, at least now, after learning a lot about crypto and markets and also from listening to you. But one point Peter made that I relate to, options and covered calls, I have studied and studied and still scratch my head. And I am good at math and engineering, I just can't grasp that one. But that is ok. Got to know our strengths and weaknesses.

      Checking in, in stocks I'm more bullish now for next couple weeks while fed won't be inputting as much. a pretty good oversold condition. Dow held trend. I think 34,000 is a tough overhead. But some nice stock charts. Crypto I'll look in a bit.

    26. Ray Mikota on

      Great vid. Audio is perfect and Peter thanks for your questions. I’m a lot like you. straddled puts and calls?😵‍💫blah blah blah man it’s over my head. but I don’t need to do that I’m just gonna dollar cost average on steroid and remember to take profits. and keep learning.

    29. Brigid on

      Brilliant as always. In 20+ years of relying on Schwab, Edward Jones, Betterment, truly did not profit from any of these. Started dropping brokers 2016-2020 and have been fumbling around trying to figure it out myself, which is why I’m here almost religiously. BEST finance edutainment. Truly. Thank you, James and family. 🏆

    30. Rob Zee on

      James, the thing keeping me from diving into Tesla head first is Joe Biden’s disdain for Elon. Given Sleepy Joe is hell bent on ridding the US dependance of fossil fuels, I would think Elon would be his best chum, given his vision and brainpower (Elon’s… Not Joe’s). What gives?

    32. Nataliya Kovaleva on

      Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, thoughts and the way of thinking! Best health and wellness for you! We appreciate you and all the work you put in for this channel to benefit us all! ❤🙏

    33. Sahil Kakar on

      People get carried away and say oh not everyone can make 10s of millions of dollars from stocks and trading etc etc.
      that may be true, you might not make 110million like the college kid in the example James has given.

      But if you manage to make 300k/400k from 20k over a number of years. That’s still pretty f**king good.
      You’re not saving 400k cash no matter how good of a job you have ✌🏾

    35. Digital Transformation on

      Unfortunately, he lost his credibility in both LUNA model (buying at $61 and putting that $8K model) and over marketing Celsius and backing out and refusing to take responsibility in the form of NFA. He criticized and mocked a lot of them but gets very defensive when a finger is pointed at him
