He does talk sense but his claims about his career as a trader are ludicrous

He says he was the best trader in the world, but did not even make the most money on his desk for his bank and left at 27.

I’m guessing a lot of that is him needing to get noticed to get air time, but it does risk people dismissing him.

He seems to talk a lot of sense to me....but I may well be missing something.
