  • @aadityasaple
    This Guy is the best financial interviewer, hands down
  • With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly—which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stock portfolio
  • @cozyslor
    I swear, Becky flirts with all the old guys. And she's good at it.
  • The stock market has been a really tough one this past year, but I watched an interview on CNBC where the anchor kept mentioning "...Cristina Gutierrez Moore...". This prompted me to get in touch with her, and from October 2021 till now we have been working together, now i can boast of profits in my trading portfolio.
  • Masters on the Craft: 1:01 They're generally from nice families, not poverty. Middle class 1:10 Good at math, good students 1:12 Like to read, like to be in control, like to make the final decision 1:16 They go against conventional wisdom 2:46 Workaholics 2:54 For them, investing is not work, it's pleasure 3:12 They love it (investing, researching) 3:29 Conventional wisdom is almost always wrong 4:05 The greatest fortunes are made when people go against conventional wisdom
  • Stock market is a FOOLS game like going to the Fair/carnival and trying to Win a prize. Fools are born everyday! why would u invest in something that u can't control and that has wild price changes and no return guaranties.. Why risk it and gamble in a game that you don't control the outcome of...
  • Buy quality companies Hold for 10+ years Add to your positions on dips Keep contributing to your portfolio Reinvest all dividends Don't check your portfolio every day Investing is easy if you make it easy
  • @edgibbs3229
    Melissa is the best! Super smart and very engaging in interviews. Always asks the right questions.
  • Smart move. Move to DC, Invest in what the politicians r investing in. Pay for strippers, escorts & coke. Massive ROI.
  • @titusp9488
    Rubenstein is a tough and smart ... almost got caught off guard by Becky's question about why starting in DC (insinuations ;) Melissa comes in with a real smart questions about convention wisdom ... He answered like a champ (very smart indeed)
  • The number one thing that makes a good investor is "diversification". You must never put all your eggs in one basket. I'll give an unrelated example; An associate of mine lost almost half of his inheritance in the very recent Luna saga and now he feels investments are a scam. Personally, as one who has been into Real Estates for as long as I can remember, I made my first million earlier this year from stocks alone (through the help of a pro though). I also experiment with a couple of other things. Imagine what the situation would had been given the present real estates market if I were solely banking on it. Goodluck!
  • Very superficial advice. Going against convention wisdom could also involve investing in ceiling wax. If you want to learn about what makes a great investor read Warren Buffet's annual reports or "You can be a stock market genius" by Joel Greenblatt.
  • @HenggaoCai
    I always tell people that the highest calling of mankind is private equity.
  • @arigutman
    Love Rubenstein and watch all of his interviews with investors, enjoyed this content... Looking forward to the week ahead with volatility and opportunity to come!
  • Great video! But im not so convinced that Bitcoiners want Ethereum to fail. I feel BTC and ETH have a symbiotic relationship. If ETH has an amazing POS transfer, it could be good for the whole crypto market. They're two completely diff blockchains for diff purposes.I have learned from you and other Youtubrs especially my mentor Ivana Marich who taught me how to make trades and increase my crypto daily, ive went from 4 btc to over 12 btc in few weeks.
