Most of us aren’t The Wolf Of Wall Street.
Sure, we could handle the parties and excess of money, but the lifestyle of a great trader is something you don’t walk into. For most of us, investing means putting money in long-term value plays and checking the progress along the way. It is not the sleepless nights of caffeine-binging, watching the charts and making the hundreds of trades day in and day out.
On today’s episode of The Bitcoin Crypto Mentor Mastermind Show, we are joined by Jeremy Gardner, founder of the decentralized prediction blockchain Augur, which at a market-cap of $300 million is said to be the most undervalued crypto-project in Silicon Valley. His expertise in crypto-trading is unprecedented, as he shares his insights today on how to approach investing vs. trading.
