    1. Note to self, the more a financial manager mentions childish amusements (e.g. Harry Potter, League of Legends, etc), the less you should trust them with anything of value.

    2. Amazing Analysis and content, congratulations!. I’d love to see some analysis of main crypto exchanges running right now, see if they have the same red flags FTX had.

    3. Patrick, I usually love your reptoring, but this video is strange.

      You're making a lot of criticisms on dressing as a sultry wood elf. Halloween was just 11 days ago. You haven't posted any pictures of your costume. That's curious. I think there's a lot more to the subplot than you admit. Could there be some deep-seated jealousy that your Halloween costume store didn't have this necklace or the crown in that LED color?

    4. Gee if only the people who weren’t comfortable with self custody had a spot btc etf to invest in. Instead of leaving it all on an exchange.

    5. you mentioned wood nymph a few times, but I think you should be more clear and say sultry wood nymph. Sometimes I forgot which wood nymphs you were talking about
