Not sure why this landed in my feed, but what a good interview. For some reason I've been getting loads of scammy day-trading videos in my feed. It's always the same BS about finding an "edge" and mastering your psychology, mostly delivered by 25 year old kids who claim to be multi-millionaires. This guy is the real deal, and he summarizes the situation perfectly @<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzdgrDCeozI&t=924">15:24</a>. The entire interview should be required watching for anyone who thinks they're going to get rich trading options or whatever dumb thing is fashionable right now.

I read more than 200 trading books, watched 100+ interviews... Never have heard of Tom Costello and it turned out maybe the best podcast I watched ever... I got here by a recomendation from a friend

Damn, he's bloody honest and outspoken. This is one of the most sobering conversations with someone from the finance industry I've heard. I also found him on Quora, where he answers all kinds of finance related questions. Thank you for this interesting conversation.
