    Check. So the first person to come up with the idea to short squeeze GME had solid reasoning. Like you said, the basic concept has been around for decades. Check. So let's say you share your reasoning behind your fully backtested, mathematically based trades with a group of people (a flashmob...

    I'm going to assume you don't call it "dumb money" when you make successful trades.

    Not knowing the product but I've validated a business idea I had. I wanted to create a foldable soccer goal similar to Shop BazookaGoal | Solid Frame, Pop-up Soccer Goals What I did was: Sketch out the most important features of the goal (e.g. should be portable, not too heavy, should not fall...

    I was pointing out your fallacy. The initial inflow of funds was based on solid reasoning. To dismiss that as "stupid money" and "2 year WSB pros" is missing the point. Why should we always completely dismiss one side? They don't think the "market is always going up". This is not the sub-prime...

    Another avenue would be to create a project on Upwork and search for a 3D modeller that has access to their 3d printing facilities. You can get them to just create a small batch for your to validate your idea.

    This is not correct. The gamma squeeze is a real thing. This guy explains the short squeeze of GME well: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSamMiig7-g

    The money flowing in now is momentum. No other than what happens when stocks go up. If you want to call it "dumb money" that's fine.. but call it the same when you're investing in stocks that are moving up as well. The initial play from reddit was based on countering the illegal tactics used by...

    So let's take a step back. What's happening now: Funds try to short companies to death. They fail, due to market plays by retail investors. As a fall back they're now using their connections / leverage to halt trading so that they can close out their positions. So you'd prefer wall street to...

    GME is shorted 140%. Which is illegal. And criminal. Nice pun on shortsighted though.

    Co-Founder Experiences?

    Another note.. it's easier to create a company that keeps 1 person afloat. Dividing everything by 2 makes things lot more difficult. What I mean by that.. 50k net profit is a decent return for a starting business. 25k net profit not so..

    Co-Founder Experiences?

    I must have worked with 4-5 co-founders over the years and I was always bitterly disappointed. They either: Did not have the same work ethic that I have Not have any work ethic at all Were tired most of the time after their day job and thus always late in delivering .... I'd advise you to...

    This is exactly the game wall street has been playing for decades. They never had to fear retail investors banding together though.

    How analogies drive effective messaging in business. What are some that have changed your way of thinking?

    I find the fisherman and business man analogy quite amusing: There was once a businessman who was sitting by the beach in a small Brazilian village. As he sat, he saw a Brazilian fisherman rowing a small boat towards the shore having caught quite few big fish. The businessman was impressed and...
