Very interesting, very good questions asked, thank you for this. One tiny criticism I have is that I think you have given Andreas Clenow a different sound system, so, your voice is crystal clear & perfect where as Andreas' voice echoes/distorts quite a bit.

[@TopTradersUnplugged]

Hi Mich...thanks for you kind words. When it comes to sound, the guest uses their own microphone and they may also have a worse internet connection than me (these conversations are done remotely)...so that explains the difference in quality :)

[@NinjaStarzHD]

This video sounds insane!👍🏻 however andreas clenows head is far too big for his body in this video, same with you neils I think a gym membership is key for creating a more robust head to body ratio. Thanks, Panæshoö

This is gold

Why do you say that?

[@michid2]

Amazing interview. Why only so few views? I guess Fortnite tutorials have more colorful pictures so it must be better -_-

[@westnash]

Niels, Why not put the guests track record out and available along with each interview. Not just he made 100% in a year or such gibberish. His / her record by year for EVERY year he has been in business. It would give more credibility to their statements. When he says "rich people brought me money" you just lose all manner of credibility.

We can't do that for compliance reasons...most managers are not allowed to share their numbers with the public...only Accredited Investors
