Remember people - profitable traders don't spend their time/money hosting conventions and harassing you to join their pyramid scheme. They also don't ask you to recruit others to make money. If they could trade they would print money with trading and enjoy it privately. This guy preys on desperate and gullible people looking for a shortcut to money
Lol at these poor simpletons thinking there is a magic pill that will allow you to become rich. Nah, you just save more than you spend, it is just that simple. If you can "only" save something like 1000$/month or less then it might take two generations for your family tree to become rich. But as long as you save (and invest it in extremely risk averting way) you aren't losing it in pyramid schemes and other scams and your family tree will at some point be able to live off the interest and dividends.
I always think if someone is out there "teaching" other people how to make money, then they themselves are most likely scamming people or can't make enough money themselves. If you'd made enough money you'd just live your life.
This is EXACTLY how I’ve always felt about the glaringly obvious flaws of pyramid schemes. During more desperate tub, I almost signed with Primerica and looking back…the people who got sucked in were either just really, REALLY incompetent as a whole or so desperate to get rich quick they quite literally couldn’t even IMAGINE they were the reason they were getting sold dreams…to fulfill someone else’s 🤦🏽♀️. Succinctly expressed my friend!!! ✨💯
Ahhhhh yes & no. i’ve always loved sharing great information I found & helping the people. I would actually say if you find something that’s gold why would you selfishly only keep it to yourself?
If I am making that much money my self, I'd be just lying around not work at all, I'd be the reward of 15yrs of non stop hard work, the best part is no matter what others say, and even label it as selfish, I won't give an f*** , this is my peace, period.@@Horus1133

Wow. I couldn't imagine the most informed generation to be so easily brain-washed into these schemes. However, the cost of living has just increased, markedly. For those with assets, life is extraordinarily different and comfortable, compared to those who have to work for money to put food on the table. In the UK, having an apartment to let sets you apart from the rest of the population. Having two, makes you the one-eyed man in the land of the blind.
This has nothing to do with crypto, more like people keep falling for the same type of scam every year. They do the same concept for selling "life insurance" or "loans and mortgages."

I was apart of this IM academy in the USA for a year and to be honest it wasn’t bad. I don’t know if it was just my circumstance where I knew the coach/teacher personally but I was never forced to recruit people or recommend people for the course and all of our zoom calls where informative. The only downside was the price of the course which is why i eventually quit it after I felt like I learned enough to trade on my own. I honestly didn’t even know it was this worldwide.
The thing about pyramid scheme is that you luck out if you’re in a certain level in the pyramid. The problem is after so many rounds of recruiting, the bottom of the pyramid is the most screwed and the biggest. You were probably in the sweet spot.
Key points.... Positive feedback loops are inherently dangerous. Never underestimate the power of stupid ppl in large groups. (No offense to the individuals that comprise the group, its the arena sized beach ball of ignorance they are batting around.)

Investing in alternative income streams that are independent of the government should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. Stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.
I see you're not familiar with the concept of experience. You are not born with it. This is why they target the youngest people possible. Old people fall for different scams, that have been around for decades, and they were kicked out of the nest long ago. You have without a doubt fallen for scams aswell, and you will again in life, even if you are too dumb to understand it.
Well, I picked the challenge to put my finances in order. Then I invested in cryptocurrency, stocks, through the assistance of my discretionary fund manager
I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $21k passively by just investing through an advisor, and I don't have to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my finances remain secure. So I really don't blame people who panic.
As they say, "If something seems too good to be true, then it usually is." Also, "A fool and their money are soon parted." Don't be fooled by these wolves in sheep's clothing.
Do you know how frustrating it is to sell an honest course after all these scam artists?! I've spent almost a year writing what I feel to be something that can actually teach you how to trade under a strict, disciplined manner - only to get 1 sign up in the past 30 odd days. Mainly because people look at it and probably think I'm just like the majority of these other scammers. It's awful man! Depressing as heck! All I want to do is teach others the same way I learnt, and I charge a fraction of what all these "guru's" charge and they prefer to purchase from a fake than someone who is literally trying to help you, for a fraction of the price?! Hopefully people will notice me a bit more down the line. Thanks for shedding light on these kinda people though, it really helps the little guy out there!
Just looked up your course, looks really good! Watched the free module on your website and purchased your course. Always happy to help out the little guy 😉
As someone who married into power and wealth: I learned some hard truths from the Husband & Wife that headed the family. I've posted their remarks before and it went over people's head; no wonder people fall for these scams.
I feel like there are more trader groups than ever right now. "Leaders" that advertise and recruit people to their group using a specific trade site, and that leader real goal is just to recruit as many as possible to use that site. That how they make money. Recruitment. Not by making their followers rich. But they use the "get rich" motivation to trick people into the recruitment. It's all over the place, not only in crypto.
I learned that the ppl who are truly making money on their own, and want to educate others will educate others for free cause they don't need other ppls money to make money. Ppl who educate at a cost, they make money from the education and not the information they are sharing
The best thing that ever happened to me, was buying 2.25 bitcoins for between $600 and $650. I sold them at $350. Digital bits are worth nothing, unless another sucker buys them.

For those with assets, life is extraordinarily different and comfortable, compared to those who have to work for money to put food on the table.
In the UK, having an apartment to let sets you apart from the rest of the population.
Having two, makes you the one-eyed man in the land of the blind.
This has nothing to do with crypto, more like people keep falling for the same type of scam every year. They do the same concept for selling "life insurance" or "loans and mortgages."
Yup! I’m tired of crypto getting a bad rep because of jerks like this.
Lock up all of these clowns. MLM’s are disgusting, it’s corporate radicalisation.
"Sometimes, it's not about having a talent, skill, or passion. But what if I told you that with the right investment, you can still achieve your goals? No talent, no skill, no passion, but good investment can bring you financial freedom. Don't underestimate the power of smart financial decisions!!!!!!!!"
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks..
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more…
@@rougeur Understanding your financial needs and making effective decisions is very essential. If I could advise you, you should seek the help of a financial advisor. For the record, working with one has been the best for my finances...
I’m Glad i stumbled on this. Please, if its not too much of a hassle for you, can you drop the details of the CFP that assisted you and how to get in touch….
@@rougeur I get guidance from *Susan Tori Davis* Most likely, the internet should have her basic info..
People are so lost in this world 😢
This guy isnt a crypto cult. Its a forex cult. Please do some research

Either way it's still a gambling cult. You have to have some serious brain issues to fall for that stuff.
Difference?

Cause one 5% make rest are all sheeple who just blindly follow fake media knowledge.. 🤣
I was apart of this IM academy in the USA for a year and to be honest it wasn’t bad. I don’t know if it was just my circumstance where I knew the coach/teacher personally but I was never forced to recruit people or recommend people for the course and all of our zoom calls where informative. The only downside was the price of the course which is why i eventually quit it after I felt like I learned enough to trade on my own. I honestly didn’t even know it was this worldwide.
completely agree. exactly the same in the UK.
The thing about pyramid scheme is that you luck out if you’re in a certain level in the pyramid.
The problem is after so many rounds of recruiting, the bottom of the pyramid is the most screwed and the biggest.
You were probably in the sweet spot.
Key points....
Positive feedback loops are inherently dangerous.
Never underestimate the power of stupid ppl in large groups. (No offense to the individuals that comprise the group, its the arena sized beach ball of ignorance they are batting around.)
Like college
@@lexvandewal8856 you should have finished high school
Wild how many people are so easy to brainwash. We never learn as a species.
Shows how greedy the world is. Because it all boils down to money.
The integration of Revux into mainstream payment gateways is a strategic move with significant potential. Well done!
Sooner or later, it will be done for him. They’re watching him.
Amway has been around for decades. Their schtic was pushing audio cassette tapes. Once stupid gets a hold of the masses. Oh man its Joplin City and German father that locked his daughter in basement for polygenerational incest disgusting.

I love how yall put a merge sort algo at 1:11 like its some hacking lmao
Someone at our uni used to be a recruiter. What was sad is that she was legit taking money from the most vulnerable demographics yet framing herself as a religious person lol. Now she runs her brand as if that never happened.
I've been literally obsessed with crypto since 2017 and I've never heard of these guys

"The Trading ‘Cult’ Separating Children From Their Families | Cowboy Kings of Crypto" by VICE (May 28, 2024)
THANK YOU CARLOS
GRACIAS CARLOS
0:46 All MLMs, no matter what they try to sell, are the same. The cult tactics, the manipulation, the putting a wedge between the person and their family, the tremendous financial harm....it's all the same. I hope more people see this video and allow the puzzle pieces to click into place. Don't join an MLM peeps.
Amway is like this.
That man can never convince me to deal with him in anything.
How are people in 2024 still falling for these 💀💀💀
Money "over night" :-)
Just look at the target audience and those interviewed here: either young & broke or old & broke
we can compare Networth and portfolios if you want to show it works. But guess what the world full of tards so cant help the stupid people
Hope and empty dreams, guess this is how people were built and not everyone is blessed to be wise enough to not fall victim for those scammers.... I blame it on the system in the first place, ppl are too naive and vulnerable.
Aliens not people.😂😂😂
Revux's commitment to a transparent fee structure is refreshing. No hidden costs - just what the crypto community needs!
Thinking you can outtrade(gamble) the market from your laptop is like thinking you can make an better electric car then Tesla in your home garage.
As a person who works in the automotive field, with vast knowledge of electrical engineering, you absolutely could build a better car than a Tesla, but the tools, knowledge and parts required would probably be about 6-10x the cost of just buying a Tesla. Could you? Absolutely. Should you? Only if that’s what you wanna do, not to mention licensing fees, headaches of legal issues etc.
The founder designed his cap to have the IM Academy logo off to the side, allowing it to show straight above his forehead and have the bill of the cap angled back and to the side. Absolute genius. Sign me up!
as a lone trader myself, groups are just pigeons. always fly together to eat cause they're weak creatures. a true trader knows what's the game like, and who are we playing with or against. the time taken to master the skillset, the personalised trading style, the mindset cannot be taught or inherit but nurture thru time like water sharpening the stone
New traders look for mentors to learn from & sadly many fall for these trade “communities”
rofl. Get a job :D
That poor kid in Canada is moving in the wrong direction if he wants to make 6 figures. Just get a real job buddy. Scammers like this love praying on low income and uneducated people. Heartbreaking.
The fact that we get free videos on RUclips by VICE is truly a gift; keeping the education and knowledge alive. 🙏

I've been more into cricket betting lately The live updates during matches are super helpful
Ooo.. do an inside look at ICT.. Inner circle trader.. aka Michael Huddleston
Huddleston cant trade, he fucked up the robbins cup several times, he would be a good subject
all people on youtube telling you how to "make money" are scamming you. it is not hard. Any good trader would not be on youtube teaching trading....
@@w3w3w3 I feel like any good trader THAT IS ACTUALLY PROFITABLE would give all they know for free like instead of those courses. The trading space isn't something that's gatekept you just gotta know and follow the right people.
As soon as I heard the guy at the end use the term "network marketing", my jaw almost dropped. That is 100% the clean up term for a pyramid scheme.
i cant believe its 2024 and grown ass "traders" still playing around with candlesticks and goofy lines on chart. its amazing

Investing in alternative income streams that are independent of the government should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. Stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.

There's always someone out there willing to take advantage of others at any cost.
These kids literally get scammed on purpose to get attention on social media. Its obvious with alot of them.
Carles Tamayo, we are really proud of you ❤ Qué recuerdos del barco 😅 Eres un grande 👏🏻👏🏻
Its 2024, if youre still scammed by this type of stuff then you should have been pushed out of the nest.
I see you're not familiar with the concept of experience. You are not born with it. This is why they target the youngest people possible. Old people fall for different scams, that have been around for decades, and they were kicked out of the nest long ago. You have without a doubt fallen for scams aswell, and you will again in life, even if you are too dumb to understand it.
“I’m not poor, I’m pre-rich” shows the absolute insanity of these people.
Kids wanting easy money and no hard work.
Females are becoming millionaires by selling pictures, is that hard work? I don't think it is.
What this is showing us is that the universe appears to exist as an infomercial.
How do most of you guys still make profit, even with the downturn of the economy and ever increasing life standards
Well, I picked the challenge to put my finances in order. Then I invested in cryptocurrency, stocks, through the assistance of my discretionary fund manager
Mrs Nancy Williams Laplace
This is correct, Nancy's strategy has normalized winning trades for me also and it’s a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started..
Nancy is considered a key Crypto Strategist with one of the best copy Trading Portfolios and also very active in the cryptocurrency space.
I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $21k passively by just investing through an advisor, and I don't have to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my finances remain secure. So I really don't blame people who panic.
As they say, "If something seems too good to be true, then it usually is."
Also, "A fool and their money are soon parted."
Don't be fooled by these wolves in sheep's clothing.
Never heard of this. Is this a black thing?
IM Academy saved my life. Thanks Chris Terry!
Do you know how frustrating it is to sell an honest course after all these scam artists?! I've spent almost a year writing what I feel to be something that can actually teach you how to trade under a strict, disciplined manner - only to get 1 sign up in the past 30 odd days. Mainly because people look at it and probably think I'm just like the majority of these other scammers. It's awful man! Depressing as heck! All I want to do is teach others the same way I learnt, and I charge a fraction of what all these "guru's" charge and they prefer to purchase from a fake than someone who is literally trying to help you, for a fraction of the price?! Hopefully people will notice me a bit more down the line. Thanks for shedding light on these kinda people though, it really helps the little guy out there!
Just looked up your course, looks really good! Watched the free module on your website and purchased your course. Always happy to help out the little guy 😉
As someone who married into power and wealth: I learned some hard truths from the Husband & Wife that headed the family. I've posted their remarks before and it went over people's head; no wonder people fall for these scams.
Do tell?
People should remember the wise words
“Life is pain. Anyone telling you different is trying to sell you something”.
Those crash games are intense! Tried one and it was a total adrenaline rush
These people don't even understand the basics of investing.
2:50 "If you want something different, you gotta do something different."
I feel like there are more trader groups than ever right now. "Leaders" that advertise and recruit people to their group using a specific trade site, and that leader real goal is just to recruit as many as possible to use that site. That how they make money. Recruitment. Not by making their followers rich. But they use the "get rich" motivation to trick people into the recruitment. It's all over the place, not only in crypto.
So much wisdom in these young people it's a kind of inspiring
I'm glad I have a sceptic mindset to a point... get rich quick mentality never ends well.
Thus business changed my life❤️
I learned that the ppl who are truly making money on their own, and want to educate others will educate others for free cause they don't need other ppls money to make money. Ppl who educate at a cost, they make money from the education and not the information they are sharing
The best thing that ever happened to me, was buying 2.25 bitcoins for between $600 and $650. I sold them at $350. Digital bits are worth nothing, unless another sucker buys them.
Blinded by greed.
