As long as they are being taught this, then it is worth it 🤷🏾‍♀️
They are not being taught this tho, none of these YouTube investors ever talk about how they made their money to invest.
If someone talking about investing doesn't say how much they invested or how they got enough money to invest, that is a major red flag.

There were many articles talking about how black folks could build wealth with crypto even robinhood was running ads featuring black people like day trading was a way to build wealth. Alot of us probably got set back a generation or two with all this bullshyt.
Honestly nothing wrong with day trading or crypto I did crypto(mainly leverage trading) before and do day trading now if your willing to learn fundamentals and technical analysis is good way to make money.
The big problem is these buy my courses scams are exploitative and never teach anything of value.
Looking back am thankful that my high school had stock market class which taught me company fundamentals.

Not options trading :snoop:

Options are super advanced. No wonder all these cats to the market are talking about options, before even buying regular stocks :snoop:

Options are terrible for someone new to the market because they can expire worthless.
Option trading is goat u either come out like a king or go out a like bytch no middle ground:lolbron:

It'll only get worse since most shyt is about clout. We got people bragging about having an LLC but having no products or employees. Bragging about passports but never been anywhere. Bragging about getting a 2016 BMW with a $700 car note. And the people on this wave are always the loudest and most belligerent about "money shyt" as you said. Always talking about flipping money, or going to conferences, or "hustling" or breakfast with Jay-Z memes.

The time spent faking it could have been spent building.
I always say people will work hard at "Looking like it" instead of just doing the work to get there.

I had NO CLUE how wild shyt was out here until I jumped back into the dating game.

There are so many people trying to seem like the highly educated and the wealthy :pachaha:
Tons of Weekend CEO's with Dime a Dozen LLC's, all spouting "Money talk" making $45k a year, living
check to check in an apartment yet their IG looks like they make $250k plus.

Complete and total fantasy. lol.

I knew the game was fukked up when I had someone making half of what I do, with no savings to speak of trying
to ask "What do YOU bring to the table ?" and "Are YOU financially literate ?".

shyt is CRAZY :pachaha:
