OK, I don’t watch this guy’s stuff all the time but he seems smart and he shines light on bullshit. This video is about a youtuber Cody “Whistlin’ Diesel” allegedly day trading with some guy named Alex. As you can imagine, Alex is selling a scam.

FOREX is no joke and there is apparently an entire industry of people scamming financial newbies with prop accounts. That’s terrifying. If you’re thinking about your money and want to make some quick, please avoid this bullshit.

        because it doesn’t seem to have happened, seeing as how the source provided is for a “coffeebreak” and the guy has a different face than coffeezilla

          oshit? I didn’t even look at pictures.

          I don’t even really care, I just watch Coffeezilla’s vids every so often because he’s well produced and sometimes talks about things I find interesting.
