Okay, so holy shit how have I not heard about this kid until today? Was there a thread I missed?
Looks spartan but okay...?
Here's a vice interview where he talks about managing money since he was 17.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arb046YgAN4
Well that's pretty neat.
oops: http://ift.tt/1TwK2bG
Maybe bragging about managing money as a minor wasn't so smart? Or was it claiming to have a 7.87 sharpe?
Oh, btw in the interview he calls the NFA a "club" that he withdrew from and they're upset he left... Self regulatory body, investment club, same difference?
bonus from valuewalk:
Bryant claims that Jacob Wohl would recruit Hollywood models to work with the firm, some off Craigslist and others off Backpage, a web site that contains an “adult” advertising section with titles such as “escorts, body rubs and adult jobs.”
Jacob Wohl would entice the models to attend alternative investing conferences in the Los Angeles region to flirt with potential investors, Bryant said. Once the flower attracted the bee, the model had procured the attention of a well-healed attendee, Wohl would enter the conversation and attempt to transition into an investment pitch, which was received with various degrees of initial success, according to Bryant.
What does /r/investing think the over/under is on this kid going to jail?
