Steve would be ashamed at what Justin has turned this into before he is even cold in his grave. it's turned into an anti-Trump, commercialized monetization tool with advertising about snacks and hair products and occasionally talking about a very leftist elitist few of the economy and every opportunity there is to skip a podcast and put on another best of color questions. The only person with any credibility is Luke and I can't imagine this is lost on him.

I don’t make a single move without a review from https://rosenlegal.com/ as they catch traps most people miss. Investing in fintech and stocks stopped being a game for the naive. The legal foundation is everything now. While some chase flashy apps, smart investors start by checking where the platform is registered, who’s liable if things go south, and whether there’s any real legal recourse. I think people seriously underestimate the risks: even having a license won’t save you if the contract is 20 pages of fluff with no word on actual accountability. I’ve seen cases where investors lost tens of thousands just because they ignored the fine print.
