I read his book and keep seeing videos on youtube. He predicted 69 of the last 2 recessions. The way he talks suggests he thinks he is doing his audience a favor and smarter than everyone else (and maybe he is ?). You know who else is smart? Jack Bogle, yet he never bragged and were down to earth (RIP) . Just wanted to know if I am missing something. Blind tax TC:250k YOE:3
Its just marketing and sales
marketing is fine as long as he is not BSing everyone, do you think he is? recently he suggested to buy silver!
Just a guy who knows how to write a decent book and market it.
He already won. Having people want to discuss him. He's a good salesman. He's as genuine as any motivational speaker out there.
He is a good business man imho Not a stock or investment guru
He stressed me out because I can’t just work on someone for so many years and enjoy life but I need to struggle on figuring passive income streams
I read a part of his books but his pretentiousness really put me off.
You have to wonder what the incentives are for someone that “teaches” you how to get rich
Bogle was created by wall street so that people will invest into the scam market.
I kindly disagree, the story of Bogle and creating index funds is inspiring. Wall street was against him because Vanguard does not charge substantial fees for their passive index funds. If a person had invested in Vanguard's total market index when it started in 1980s with $1,000 would have around $4000,000 by now (I might be off)
What about 1920s? You conveniently pick a time frame. No one wanted to invest in the 1970s, so they had a create a bogle in the 80s. This decade will be similar to Japan's lost decade.
He is fraud

Would you buy a book from him if he pretended he was dumb?
I don’t need a book to teach me how to be a poor dad
So he is a fraud for not being genuine ? In my opinion any author should present his/her case without looking like they know something everyone don't so keep reading/following until we figure something out.
