Good Financial Advice From Real Wall Streeters: Listen To Billionaires Over Journalists And Talking Heads

Tags: Celebrities, Financial Media Circus, Interviews, Real Wall Streeters, Videos

Here’s a great 3-part interview the man himself, Mr. George Soros, whose current net worth is north of $8 billion, all created through financial speculation. If you don’t know who he is, first be ashamed, then see his bio HERE. Then click the picture below to watch the pathetically unembeddable video:

Now that’s an interview! Always trust the views of experienced/proven-successful billionaires over that of the experienced-sounding but success-lacking journalists, marketers and talking heads who infest our great industry.

    I admire George Soros,
    even though he was responsible for the Asian Financial Crisis, broke banks and people jumped off buildings because of his currency speculation.

    dont hate the short selling playas, hate the game. if a currency/company is well managed, short sellers would stay away and if they didnt, they’d get squeezed. blame the failure on those who failed, not succeeded

    I’d wait for it to break upward channel upper line before entering in JRJC, like my trade in the journal in the forums

    George Soros and Jim Rogers ran the Quantum Fund (30% plus per year) and are near the top of the list of people I trust most for financial insights.

    Nice interview, though I do not see how it differs fundamentally how George’s opinion is much different from the ones of, for instance, CNBC journalists. What he says is really common sense that everyone already knows and that was discussed over and over again.

    nick common sense is usually the best path but even if his view was the world is coming to an end, i’d put more stock in it than any journalist…..ever

PDO, up $4+ today, will teach you not to randomly short strong penny stocks, get in, get out then run...cuz sometimes they squeeze stubborn shorts to death!

No ideal short plays today, check out these 2 interviews while we wait for price action perfection

I wish I'd listened to my own rulebook, instead got squeezed for $400 shorting blatant-fraud KYUS too early...someone needs a refresher course this weekend!

I nailed NCOC's 20% rise today in my pre-market post, but I was too biased against buying little breakouts, learn from my mistakes!
