Apparently, I Need to Discuss This... | STR 522

Author: ClayTrader March 24, 2025 Duration: 9:56

I truly hope after listening to this episode you are a bit angry at me because you feel as though I've wasted your time. I hope you are thinking the whole time, "Come on Clay! Really? You really needed to clarify this for me?!?!". If this is indeed the case, I am so relieved and will have a bit more peace in my rest. Because, as you're about to see, what you may find super obvious is… unfortunately for some…. Not obvious. So in my defense, please cut me a little slack and graciousness as I apparently need to continue to do pieces of content like this to notify the public and those who are beginners of some realities. Is this a problem of pure greed or a problem of total ignorance? I'm not sure. I'll let you be the judge of that, but for my own sanity's sake, I wanted to do another podcast episode addressing the issue and trying to stop people from being a sucker!
