Summary

I had a bit of an epiphany this weekend. You may call it a moment of clarity. I think social media and sports betting has dehumanized athletes. I think it's pretty obvious. That said, should athletes just accept that as part of the job? The Texas fans throwing beer cans on the field is another example of this. The constant storming of the field after college games is another example of this. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Explicit Wealth, Freedom & Options With Joshua Belanger Joshua Belanger Hi I’m Josh, and I’m a finance guy who love’s to trade options. I cut my teeth on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, so I saw firsthand how the “sausage was made” – and it usually wasn’t pretty. As former insider, I saw the inner workings of how these firms and fund managers rob customers right in front of their eyes every month. I quickly realized that professionals only care about getting their fee's first while 95% of them underperform the overall market every year. In fact, there’s been more fee’s paid out to these “wealth stealers” then overall returns since 2002. After playing by their rules and busting my ass for many years trying to climb the ladder, it started to not sit right with me.I had enough when I continued to be restricted on trying to do the right things for my clients to help them achieve better returns and having senior brokers dip their greedy paws into my checks, leaving me with barley anything to live on telling me… kid you gotta pay your dues.
