Spencer sold out. Once he joined the same network as Meet Kevin, Graham Stephan and Andre Jikh, he promoted the FTX scam, covers for his friends scams and now actively promotes fake gurus. Sad!
Hi can you elaborate with what you mean by network? Thanks, just interested as I thought Spencer was credible until I saw the gambling one, and then I became skeptical
@@derika3624 Spencer is part of a multi channel network that features the creators I just mentioned. I believe part of his contract is that he can't criticize anyone on the network. Scott Schafer covered this I believe.
Actually it;s a pretty common practice with movie stars ,a lot of them will not do interviews without knowing the questions in advance and also have a list of "forbidden questions" that they will give to the interviewer before the interview. It was so common in the 80's and 90's in that filed that there were almost no interviews with movie stars without those parameters. I don't know how the current practice is with movie stars ,but that's how it was in the 1980s-90s.
Spencer Cornelia is a cornball journalist. The fact that he tries to pose as a real serious journalist is an insult to journalism. He is the antithesis of journalism. He promotes these fake gurus. Spencer could interview Richard Nixon and make him look like the good guy and make us look bad for even asking about Watergate. That's how awful he is as a journalist.
Also Spencer: "You can actually scam for like 6 months to a year, maybe max on social media. But at some point, you're gonna get found out." Potential fraudster: Silence. Spencer: "If you were scamming, a lot of people would come to me...hey man you gotta make a video on this guy." When Spencer is promoting you, you let him do all the talking.
You know what’s even more crazy, people who are actually trading for real and making money don’t give interviews or care about about social media, discords or subscriptions
pretty much it. Coffee says a lot of things that in the trading world make no sense.. just because you have a strategy doesn't mean it presents itself all throughout the day multiple times. im only 10 mins in but seems like an argument between two uneducated individuals in their respective fields.
That's true for the most part but they definitely use social media. Not to flex but to communicate. It's like the most important part. Telegram or discord mostly
Traders almost exclusively talk and hang out on discord, TH-cam , or telegram, I swear some people listen to people like coffee when he has little to no idea about crypto. There’s plenty of people who have turned 20k into millions in crypto. There’s projects that have 1000x in the past 7 months, that could make you a millionaire
Agree on him basically shriveling up in his in person interviews. Its like he loses confidence, and becomes one of the people that the scammer would target.
I hate it so much. I'm sure it's not necessarily easy, especially when these guys are doing everything they can to sway you onto their side that they are otherwise a decent person, but for fucks sake Spencer you have to mentally prepare yourself for this.
What I respect about coffee’s content is that he stands his ground when confronting the people he’s trying to expose. It takes a lot of guts to do since not many people are comfortable with confrontation.
Nothing says “fact-finding” like a fully produced Cribs style intro where your cameramen are already inside the subject’s house to film your introduction
To be fair, he defended their reasoning behind taking their sponsorship with FTX (multiple big financial companies trusted them at the time, seemed stable/liquid at he time etc). Turned out to all be a sham that hurt many unfortunate victims but this is pretty dishonest framing.
I am convinced Spencer is getting paid under table by these scammers as compensation by interviewing them mostly if not entirely in a positive light. Spencer denied this when I posted on one of his recent videos but he seems to do this every other week/month, doesn't disclose he is getting paid for the videos by the influencers yet it all reeks of a paid promotion in disguise.
I used to really look up to Spencer. In fact, the very first video I watched when I started researching Ponzi schemes and scams was his. I'll be honest, I was disappointed that he didn't show the guy's bank statements or other information to back up what he was saying. The whole point of these videos is not to take people at their word because there are so many scammers out there. We can't afford to take people on their word; we need as much evidence as possible.
The whole point of him being a trader/intern on Wall Street is the biggest flaw in his story. Interns/summer analysts ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CONDUCT OR PARTICIPATE IN TRADING ACTIVITIES. They don’t yet have their broker/dealer licenses yet. You have to be be above the age of 18, and hired FULL TIME for a bank to sponsor you for series 7, 57, 63. Interns aren’t sponsored to take them.
THIS 💯!!! My uncle has been in the industry for over 40 yrs, he always gets a good laugh at all the videos I show him from these grifters/scammers trying to sell some course, especially the ones that say they’ve traded on Wall Street at 14yrs old 🤣
I never heard of this Spencer guy before now, but watching that video, it was clear to me within about 15 seconds that he has the journalistic integrity of a cable news anchor.
I watch some of his stuff, but i worry about how he sounds. He often sounds exactly like the fake gurus he goes after. Hes reading a script so i kinda get it, but it sounds like hes selling me a course. Coffee is a bit more natural speaker
I’m not for or against Spencer because I’ve watched him for what feels like 2-3 years now and he’s always been very open about his intentions. He’s very fair when it comes to at least giving people a chance to speak, especially with people he’s accused of being a fake guru. I’ll admit that he’s not AGGRESSIVE when interviewing, but, again, it’s been a while since I’ve watched his content. I usually checked in with his life updates since he does real estate and he’s open about most of his endeavors he’s a part of like car rentals and all of that. I’d say watch some of his stuff and make an opinion based on the full body of work. It would be sad for sure if he’s going to the side of grifters though, given all of the work he put in to expose said people.
Tbh, that feels a bit insulting to cable news anchors. They're likely not paid directly by their interviewees. I'd rate this guy at the integrity level of a slime ball.
Of course, the best way of checking if someone is actually a fraud is to just ask them and believe everything they tell you. I also loved how at the end he was like "I've spent all day here and seen a ton of proof, it's just a shame none of it could make it into the video", especially when he caught him lying once (I don't know if that was before or after recording that part, but anyway). I also don't care that he made a profit once in a 10 minute period, that's like believing someone has a system to win at roulette because they called red correctly once. And for all I know the "students" could be paid actors, or cultist fans that will tell you what you want to hear.
The Cornelia guy has always given me creepy vibes, something off with him. Trader here, the only legit ones who mentor are usually quite old and want to mentor someone for free OR they mentor their friends and maybe get a share of profit. No-one mentors random strangers.
wtf are you talking about? first off what does age have to do with anything hes 25 but has been in trading since 16 so he has 9 years experience. 2nd who tf would work for free thats dumb asf he has close friends around him that are not in his discord and they get it for free but he charges 200$ a month which comes with daily hour lessons along with live trade signals i been in the group for a month and i profited 1,300 this month with a small account that i started with 3,500. and you said no one mentors random strangers ? so what do you say about personal trainers? what do you say about sport coaches? if youre good at something and want to help strangers that comes with a fee you wouldnt be doing that for free
they do if you pay them. you have to realize, the old people live in the era they grew up in in their minds. now that the internet is so sophisticated and available, its easy to teach people for a price. if you are a random stranger and you don't take what you pay for seriously, it's not the mentor's problem. it's the IN PERSON training where you may have more merit in that regard.
@@Ndasuunye Makes no sense at all. If they're really good at trading, they're making millions every year and what they want is time to spend that money. Mentoring someone for a few thousand dollars is just a colossal waste of time. The rest are just teaching people while they cannot even trade themselves, it's a good way to make money...for them, not for anyone else.
When Spencer interviewed “Micky” and flew out to watch him gamble at all the casino’s and claimed he was legit, I had to unsubscribe. He turned in to a total fan boy in that video and it was super cringy to see. Lost all credibility with me after that.
I watched a few personal finance videos from Spencer when he was still a baby in the real estate space, but I checked out when he espoused "everyone should become a landlord" as the ultimate wisdom, and a min/maxing slumlord at that. He was a shallow materialist slimeball even back then. Just more people can see it now that the grifting is less mainstream than property. NourTrades himself I would like to see in prison for a long time, although it will probably take quite some time and quite a lot more victims for that to materialise sadly. It couldn't come soon enough.
Kind of a genius marketing move to go from being an anti-grifter to the guy who gets flown out to verify grifters. Unfortunate to see Spencer leaning into the grifting community.
It's where the money is.. I'm guessing he really believed in that stuff one day but maybe something happened with his finances and he saw openings to make a lot of money
@@babayega1717 Ajay ruined himself brother. I would say Tom's obsession was equally losery but still, that dating show thing? Yea, I'd rather have Internet Anarchist
Man, this makes me sad to be honest. I started watching Spencer back when he had 20-30k subscribers and he would show how much he was making and everything. He always seemed like a genuine person with a strong moral compass. With that being said, I've noticed changes throughout the years. From the people he chooses to promote; to the sponsors he'll use. I'm sure the temptation is hard, when you can make a few grand by doing some b.s interview, but Spencer should be smart enough to know the long-term repercussions outweigh the immediate gains.
I'm not surprised with Spencer. I've seen him interview Antonio Brown and some other grifter (separately) he'd gone after previously, and he more or less was star-struck in both videos.
@@KomeFits barely know him but he seems like a yes-man. If your job is to go out and try to get some clarity on someone accused of scamming, and your interview technique is to just let the accused scammer speak without challenging anything, then it's a just PR video. Also, take a look at 25:24 - like hello? He basically just gave a long winded way of saying "I know I showed none of you any evidence, but just trust me on this, I go you bros, I would never lie". This is ridiculous
Although Nour trades is 100% a scam, as a trader myself, we can usually only make money between session opens and closes when price is volitile. This gives us a smaller window in the day to look for setups thus the reason we can’t just make money 24/7. Otherwise the video is spot on and I respect you calling out these goofy scammers
yeah, Coffeezilla clearly doesn’t understand day trading. trading all day is a recipe for disaster. the market has different characteristics at different times. most successful traders are taking 1-3 trades a day and get out.
@SteakFromJakeFarm777 I think if one knows about trading its coffee, he doesn't really claims it's the small window itself. It's the fact that Spencer comes in and in exactly the next 10 to 30 minutes they close their day trading... ridiculous
@@krakatoom market open literally only lasts for the first 10-30 minutes of the trading day, so if they were going to make any profits it would be in that exact window. nothing weird about that. check the OP’s comment for context. also I am a Coffee fan, been watching for years, since before Coffeezilla (when he had Coffee Break), and time and time again he has shown a lack of understanding day trading. Which is fine. It’s not his area of expertise. I’m not sure why you think he’s an expert.
@@BalotelliFan713 Yeah. The guy claimed to own like 100+ pharmacies and Spencer didn't even push back on it at all. There were even pharmacists in his comment section telling him how it's not even possible for a random person to open one.
Hold on. 300k a month? Why in the world would you need a finance guru if you can piss away 300k a month? That's nearly 3 mil a year. You could make a real estate firm or something.
Spot on Coffee. Been trading since late 94' and the only thing that should convince another that the money is real is... 1) Trade in real time while others observe day after day... (1-10 minute period won't cut it) 2) And frankly I prefer that to "real statements" because of the way electronic trading has changed. I want to know a person can trade right now, in real time and make money as I observe their money management and profitability level. That's exactly what people observe from me when I've taught a few others.
I think he’s just out of his depth. He doesn’t have the confidence or cleverness to be the kind of journalist that exposes scammers. I think his commentary videos can be ok if a bit one-dimensional, but that video he did with that fake gambling guru Mikki completely changed how I saw him. He can talk a big game at home but when he’s in front of a real deal con man he folds instantly and doesn’t ask any follow-up questions.
@@scamculture The Mikki video was the first time I'd ever seen Spencer. As someone who's primary hobby/recreation has literally become "gambling", it became abundantly clear the stuff Mikki was saying that was total nonsense about it and that he was getting banned for money laundering.
Spencer was called out very early on when he started doing FTX pitches and then failing to own up and call out his buddies for it. He's been a fraud anti-grifter.
You know the entire thing is fake when they're framing it as "I'm a hard hitting journalist, showing up at this guy to ask him a few questions" and filming him "walking up to the house with his equipment" - but then cut to inside the house where the other guy is waiting for him.
Fist thing I noticed aswell, it just feels like all the fake interview you see on tv. It’s just makes me have less respect for both parties, and prior to this video I had no idea who either were
They disagreed a while ago when the whole FTX thing was going off. Spencer was friends with all the guys that promoted that FTX stuff and he defended them while Coffee (Andrew) said they should be held liable. But Spencer has a habit of burning friendships and ever since he got a little more successful he has gotten worse about it. Graham and Spencer had a rift and he had one with Meet Kevin and Graham and Kevin had a rift and Spencer then took Kevin's side against Graham and it if it wasn't for Graham, he wouldn't have been a part of that clique anyways. Spencer has burned some people but he claims he is initially skeptical and wants to represent the 'truth' but he also doesn't want to be questioned himself about his integrity or his findings.
this Spencer dude strategy to investigate and see if people are legit is to go ask them... that's crazy. "Hey are you a scammer? No? Oh. Okay. That's investigated then, good to know. Carry on bud!"
The Mikki Mase use of the win/loss statements was hilarious because they're easy to fake. The TD Ameritrade/Thinkorswim profit/loss is harder to game (he basically needs multiple accounts and makes different bets in the accounts until one of them shows the profits he shows in the account). Spencer is clearly shilling for these scammers.
@@aire111I have worked for a it consultancy / system integrator 20-25 years ago and we faked a prototype of an applöication at a customer project to the steering committee using Powerpoint (I left that company briefly after that). So someone showing a screen or two that is supposedly inside some application ,,, not proving anything. Install that application on my laptop (should be easy enough as the trading / depot app would probably be provided from the broker) login and do something I ask you to like change the configuration for the screen layout and lets see that statement again, or execute a specific trade and show the position on the account / depot detail view, contact customer service from the app or similar. You can blurr all details that should be kept private in post. It is not beyond a fraud like that to fake this stuff when he sets that up. If you just make them go off script, that is a lot harder to do and would make it oborderline believable he is now actually doing something related to trading rather than manipulating his social media image and parading male body builders in the backyard of his rental place for an interview ...
It’s interesting that Cornelius was one of the few people I saw vouching for Micki telling the truth about being a winning gambler. Now it makes me think what he might have “missed” during that interview.
It's hilarious because this bright yellow Balenciaga shirt is the epitome of people without buying money buying these brands to make sure everyone thinks they do have money. Balenciaga clothing that real wealthy people wear doesnt have branding like that all over it.
I've actually worked in broking and been a trader for 30 years. No one has EVER had a good answer to "THAT" question; "So if your system is that good, why are you telling other people about it..?" The sad answer is that there is just more money in selling the dream than actually picking the market. I always wanted to find that Guru as well but they just don't exist. The institutions run the markets. No little man can control it or influence it. Just keep flipping that Buy/Sell coin... 🤷♀
Coffee, big fan and keep up the good work! I do have to disagree with you, however, on the “if you made money, why don’t you trade all day” idea. If you play a certain stock price phenomena that only occurs in the first 30 minutes of the open, then that’s all you trade. Plus there is an idea of “over-trading” which is a psychological pitfall many traders get that leads to getting into lower quality trades because your mental acuity has lowered due to fatigue from being in front of the screens too long. Not defending them (I think these guys are total scams), just giving objective input here :)
Spencer used to be cool back in the day when he called out real estate scammers. Stopped watching him when he propped up micki that guy running gambling scams on Instagram.
A lot of his vids come up on my feed, never seen his scammy ones and watched many of his exposure one offs. He's playing both sides? I genuinely had no idea and would be very disappointed if that was the case
Like how can anyone see that this is all bull, there is no way someone thinks that is real unless you are a toddler, fifa obsessed kid with internet access or just coping to glaze crypto grifters
When the entire point of a video is to examine if someone is a fraud or not you don’t start out with obviously fake setups This isn’t a promotional video (or wasn’t supposed to be one)
If this kid turned 20k in to 2 million after interning on Wall Street. That firm would try their hardest to keep you on board. They wouldn't say good luck buddy, have a good life.
Exactly, trading firms give their top money makers the best conditions/commission%/benefits, cause you don't let a golden goose waddle off when its laying you them gold eggs.
@@Diggler569interns are usually teens/really young people. Do you know what an intern is? They’re not making executive decisions at wallstreet. He was probably some writers errand boy.
Shhh. People aren't supposed to know that. He's here to rescue you out of poverty so you can make millions in just 30 minutes a day. We are blessed to have him. He's such a role model and I just wish there were more people like him willing to teach us the secret. Those greedy corporations won't teach us.
This just shows the big difference between entertainment 'journalists' and investigative journalists. If you have a scripted interview with final editing decisions going to the INTERVIEWEE, you are not interviewing anyone, you're no longer having a conversation, you're just acting in a short little scripted segment of a fluff piece. Props on him for admitting that even if he doesn't see the problem with it. And then we have spencer who is also just in this for the entertainment value and has no integrity at all, clearly. I'm glad I've never watched any of those channels, but it really shows the truth behind all these channels that are just for entertainment only. I've seen some really high quality journalistic work on youtube, such as CHUPPL, coffeezilla, patrick boyle, folding ideas, friendlyjordies, anton is here, andrew callaghan, lemmino, bobbybrocolli, etc. But it's dangerous when there's a vast other quantity of people making entertainment under a journalistic mask. They sacrifice the story for the content, which is fine but should be advertised as such.
%100. the fact that the interviewee knows the questions, and has ANY say in what's asked AND published, means its a puff piece, not any form of honest questioning.
@@vj420100%. There is little harm in knowing the areas of questioning (topic) but beyond that question specifics are seldom actually shared. That’s the exception (presidential interviews etc) rather than the norm. It’s also highly atypical to give the interviewee final approval ability.
Calling andrew callaghan a good investigative journalist is a joke. Chuppl might be a good investigative journalist but his videos are structured really weirdly. The rest are good or I don't know them.
I love the "I'm just going to show up and ask him some questions, I don't know much about him" and "let's go inside" when it's obvious they are already setup for recording and already inside the house. That's some real journalism there.
And like... If you actually want viewers to believe you're going to "expose" someone or even just get their side of the story, straight-up admitting at the top of the interview that you didn't do any research before showing up (then demonstrating it to us throughout the interview) is an interesting approach.
Cause it’s a homemade and didn’t even do the due diligence of putting something in between the front and the back so the sharpie bleed through it? Nah I think that’s what millionaires do.
@@Xxkathydonxx didn't even notice that, I'm just saying Balenciaga is a bad company, all clout clothes are horrible and overpriced, but after what Balenciaga did, I'm convinced anyone who still supports them are Pedo's as well
What happened to Spencer - I haven’t watched him in a few years but I can’t believe he seems to have gone to the dark side and basically gave this guy a platform by not doing his job to question him.
He went to shit after he started taking up shady sponsors, and he defended the results heavily. That started a couple years ago. At this point he's only kinda funny to watch if you like his style of roasting, but even that's gone down the drain
I used to watch Spencer too, years ago. One moment where people started getting weird vibes from him is when Spencer talked about (if I remember correctly) some dude who got famous by winning big many times at multipe casinos. Which is pretty shady. After investigating the guy and being skeptical, Spencer said he met up with him and is suddenly buddy-buddy with him and vouching for the dude. Even calling the casino guy 'legit'. Didn't even refute any criticism he had of the guy.
I love the void! This channel is a great compromise between high production content and being able to post regularly (not that the void isn't quality content!)
I missed the regular uploads from around two years ago, I love that he doesn’t even let the small guys slide. The deep dive high productions are just as captivating. Loving the second channel
Dude, you are like the only youtuber who has "made it" who is still sticking to the plan. You didn't sell out, you don't promote crappy products, you don't seem to want to merge your two channels to maximize subscriber count but instead separate your content for your viewers.... Thanks for keeping it real.
When a video starts off with a person outside of the individuals house and they say "Okay guys here we are! Lets get in there and get some answers!" And a camera crew is already INSIDE THE HOUSE I am not gonna believe shit.
@@PizzaCologne3 Never understand why these people would need a private jet. I don't see benefits in most of these cases. I can understand it when every saved minute can help you get more work/business for your company. The amount of time you can save by not needing to wait for a commercial flight can be hours but when you are their industries I doesn't make sense to me. Cars, sure, that's a nice hobby. Houses in your main places of work, makes sense.
@@greenpulp.they don’t have jets. A friend who I worked with at a marketing agency now works for VistaJet and these douchecanoes rent them on the tarmac for photoshoots for three hours, whining about the cost to her because even though they don’t have to pay for pilots, fuels, and other things because they can’t afford to actually take the jets for a flights, they take video and pics boarding someone’s with cosplaying flight attendants and pilots who are just friends, then they show these on their channels pretending they’re ballers… but they’re not, they’re frauds.
I would be fascinated to see how deep this goes. Does the course money just cover actors or buddies directly? or does the whole Golds Gym crew there actually trade all day, mostly loosing money?
I imagine that “internship” he was doing was just a shadow program. Every student in my high school had to complete one to graduate. You do grunt work to introduce you to the workforce
Yea there is no way any investment firm is letting a 16 year old anywhere near the trading rooms. Bring coffee to the Break Room - maybe. Beyond that? No way unless daddy owns the company.
@@silvioschurig749I don’t even think a rich daddy’s boy would be allowed at 16. No rich trading firm is going to let a child tank their firm. Maybe at like 25 when dads a little older and more thinking about finding a replacement for him at the firm. But not a 16y/o
I've done the whole "student worker" thing. Even at the university level all it entailed was doing the jobs no one else wanted to do. You are basically the company's bitch.
spencer is the kind of guy that is well articulate so he seems way more intelligent than he actually is, i still remember when he got blowminded by mikki the " genius gambler "
Loved how Spencer just straight up took a fake guru's word for it. "Yeah bro, so that uh site was totally fake homie, Coffee made it." Spencer: "Oh no shit, bruh? That was the whole point of his video!" Complete garbage.
I have an English accent and my colleagues pit so much more weight on my opinions, im a fucking idiot. But sounding like you're meant to br there is the easiest way to get clout.
The wildest part is that the math of bacc is well known. It's been attacked by PhD mathematicians with supercomputers running simulations for decades. Mikki's claims aren't even remotely plausible, it's analogous to claiming to have "written a betting algorithm that beats roulette". Having lots of money and receipts of big wins in roulette wouldn't prove you've actually beaten the game, just that you've gambled a lot.
I find it hard to believe that an investment firm would allow a 16 year old high school student day trade. Why would they risk their reputation, capital, and business to get a 16 year old intern in front of a Bloomberg terminal.
Great video and job as always. Only criticism I have is regarding the short time trading for the day. Can’t be 100% right with the market so you have to get in and take what you can get. Pigs get slaughtered in the market. Over trading can lead to giving back profits which can lead to revenge trading and eventually taking an L. Hope that provides some helpful insight.
He just said it to say it. Telling coffeezilla that he’s hating making him even more famous which he actually did lol nour’s TH-cam was dead before all of a sudden it’s growing crazy
This is a cringeworthy "accessibility journalism" nightmare. NEVER interview someone on their own turf which can be easily manipulated. Coffeezilla knows better! Your instincts remain *sharper* when you're NOT distracted by the hospitality. Nour should always be questioned off his turf, setting no terms before questioning. Every journalist knows this. Or, you end up like Tucker Carlson pandering to Putin. 😂
Stephen, I really love this new channel! It feels like you're just turning on the camera and talking to us about the thoughts you have about random issues you're working on without any filter which is honest and authentic. I love it. Looking forward to seeing more!
Watch when he started doing content with Mikki Mase. This has become a trend with Spencer. He no longer can be taken seriously. He initially created a following “debunking” things, and now he sells himself by cosigning these scammers.
Check out his video about that gambler dude. Homeboy rolls over like a puppy and it's actually really uncomfortable to see the persona he created crumble as he sees those dollar signs. I immediately unsubstantiated and stop watching his content as he's a total sell out.
No question he got paid. Now he has to defend his payment. I'm not very good with face to face interviews and I apologize blah blah blah but I really needed the money cause I got lawsuits and shit. I wouldn't trust Spencer with a bible in his hand, the type that would put his hands in your pockets while shaking your hand.
The shots of the jacked models, I mean random students, awkwardly working out in a little cluster with tiny dumbbells convinced me that everything seems legit. 😆
Nour reminds me of those 'Stolen Valor' guys who pretend to be in the military or were in the military. They couldn't make the cut or never even tried, or they exaggerate their contribution. Nour saw the guys on WS making bank, he saw their lifestyle, but he just didn't have the real desire or the ability to get there himself so he pretended to be something he's not.
The issue with Spencer is that his motivation has always been to get rich and have clout, something that he openly admits. So when he gets face to face with these people, he's exactly the person that's easily influenced by them. It's especially apparent in his videos with the gambler Mikki. As soon as he sees shiny objects he's like "well everything's true!"
Yep! Spencer likes to pretend he's so much smarter than everyone else but he's very easily distractible. Flash him a stack of cash or something shiny and he's satisfied.
Exactly, the Mikki video really put into perspective what’s going on with this dude. He’s like the nerdy guy who wants to believe women really think he’s cool when they’re just using him. He’s desperate for validation, and willing to sell out on a moment’s notice.
I'm so glad people are finally seeing through Spencer! I got icky vibes as soon as he started defending Andrew Tate on his business practices and when he started becoming buddies with the people he used to call out. I started to figure out he was just desperate for attention and money, and that's all that mattered to him
Kids, keep this in mind: No one can consistently outperform the market. Key word is consistently. The whole point of personal finance as a field of study, actual personal finance not the garbage these gurus sell; is to allow people to understand the essence of investing, so that they can make informed guesses and not take more risk than they can afford. The rest is luck.
Here's the secret to stock trading: find an industry your already familiar with, research the hell out of several companies, and take your nest guess. Thats it. Its an educated gamble, there's nothing to teach in a course. Or get on board when Reddit feels like fucking over a bunch of rich people. That seemed like it worked out well for a lot of people.
I remember being a wee lad in college subscribed to Spencer, I look at him now and TRULY can’t remember why I enjoyed the content. Wild. Shoutout to you for sticking to your game the whole time Coffee, you were there at the beginning too but somehow have remained consistent in your mission
Also you def shouldn’t feel bad making this video when it’s a response to a lowkey hit piece on your journalism. It might be goofy but he willingly chose to cover the story in the way he did with you being a large focus so fuck it. I’m sure y’all are both humans that can hash it out but you deserve the right to put out a response

If the interviewee gets to approve questions and validate the final product, then it's not journalism, it's advertising.
yeah that part of the interview felt confusing. Like if a journalist is prescreening questions than its not a real interview
Right! Sound a lot like legacy media news networks 😂
Actually it;s a pretty common practice with movie stars ,a lot of them will not do interviews without knowing the questions in advance and also have a list of "forbidden questions" that they will give to the interviewer before the interview.
It was so common in the 80's and 90's in that filed that there were almost no interviews with movie stars without those parameters. I don't know how the current practice is with movie stars ,but that's how it was in the 1980s-90s.
Spencer Cornelia is a cornball journalist. The fact that he tries to pose as a real serious journalist is an insult to journalism. He is the antithesis of journalism. He promotes these fake gurus. Spencer could interview Richard Nixon and make him look like the good guy and make us look bad for even asking about Watergate. That's how awful he is as a journalist.

Spencer: Are you a fraud?
Potential Fraudster: No.
Spencer: Good.
Also Spencer: "You can actually scam for like 6 months to a year, maybe max on social media. But at some point, you're gonna get found out."
Potential fraudster: Silence.
Spencer: "If you were scamming, a lot of people would come to me...hey man you gotta make a video on this guy." When Spencer is promoting you, you let him do all the talking.
Spencer: checks out
The idea of a guy named Spencer being a Spinster for scammers is friggin hilarious. Sounds like a DnD or WoW baddie;
Spencer, Spinster of Scam-Gurus.
Spencer: good I was worried bro 😅
“That was close”
You know what’s even more crazy, people who are actually trading for real and making money don’t give interviews or care about about social media, discords or subscriptions
pretty much it. Coffee says a lot of things that in the trading world make no sense.. just because you have a strategy doesn't mean it presents itself all throughout the day multiple times. im only 10 mins in but seems like an argument between two uneducated individuals in their respective fields.
That's true for the most part but they definitely use social media. Not to flex but to communicate. It's like the most important part. Telegram or discord mostly
fym bruh, Warren buffet gives hella interviews, and its called being a businessman making multiple streams of income……
Traders almost exclusively talk and hang out on discord, TH-cam , or telegram, I swear some people listen to people like coffee when he has little to no idea about crypto. There’s plenty of people who have turned 20k into millions in crypto. There’s projects that have 1000x in the past 7 months, that could make you a millionaire
The best traders in the world are the ones who just keep to them selves and we have probably never even heard of them
Spencer was nothing more than a microphone stand in this interview.
Fax!
What microphone stands do you buy? I've never seen one that gives oral sex. Does Guitar Center keep those in the back?
Probably what he was paid for.
That’s pretty offensive to mic. stands I’d say 😇
You spelled Fleshlight wrong.
"Little did he know, the Void is super petty" is unironically such a hard quote.
Ikr. It adds 3 strands of chest hairs to all who listen to it.
If you are a scammer i bet you that hearing that one line is enough to remove 10+ years from that life expectancy.
Czilla is awesome that way right :)
“Everything Everywhere All at Once” vibes
I am here for Voidzilla.
Agree on him basically shriveling up in his in person interviews. Its like he loses confidence, and becomes one of the people that the scammer would target.
I hate it so much. I'm sure it's not necessarily easy, especially when these guys are doing everything they can to sway you onto their side that they are otherwise a decent person, but for fucks sake Spencer you have to mentally prepare yourself for this.
What I respect about coffee’s content is that he stands his ground when confronting the people he’s trying to expose. It takes a lot of guts to do since not many people are comfortable with confrontation.
Nothing says “fact-finding” like a fully produced Cribs style intro where your cameramen are already inside the subject’s house to film your introduction
Honestly I already smell BS when that scene happened lol, it’s so corny
lol my exact thoughts
That definitely reminded me of the fake staged PR interviews some people do for damage control..
Spencer lost credibility when he defended his friends peddling a scam and called out Coffee like 2 years ago
Spencer is trash looking for clout
To be fair, he defended their reasoning behind taking their sponsorship with FTX (multiple big financial companies trusted them at the time, seemed stable/liquid at he time etc).
Turned out to all be a sham that hurt many unfortunate victims but this is pretty dishonest framing.
I am convinced Spencer is getting paid under table by these scammers as compensation by interviewing them mostly if not entirely in a positive light. Spencer denied this when I posted on one of his recent videos but he seems to do this every other week/month, doesn't disclose he is getting paid for the videos by the influencers yet it all reeks of a paid promotion in disguise.
@@nr12345 it is a pattern of behaviour at this point imo
@@nr12345definitely looks like a late night infomercial.
I love how Spencer is carrying a camera being the interviewer as a camera man videos him 😂
Having multiple camera angles is not a problem. That's the only part that's NOT a problem.
@@michaelhaydenbell Sure is not a problem. But the fact that the video posted in Nour creates a lot of problem including that additional camera
I used to really look up to Spencer. In fact, the very first video I watched when I started researching Ponzi schemes and scams was his. I'll be honest, I was disappointed that he didn't show the guy's bank statements or other information to back up what he was saying. The whole point of these videos is not to take people at their word because there are so many scammers out there. We can't afford to take people on their word; we need as much evidence as possible.
The whole point of him being a trader/intern on Wall Street is the biggest flaw in his story. Interns/summer analysts ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CONDUCT OR PARTICIPATE IN TRADING ACTIVITIES. They don’t yet have their broker/dealer licenses yet. You have to be be above the age of 18, and hired FULL TIME for a bank to sponsor you for series 7, 57, 63. Interns aren’t sponsored to take them.
Interns are glorified coffee holder in banks tbh, there's nothing special about working in a bank, they hire hundreds of thousands of people.
Spitting facts..... good job sir.
THIS 💯!!! My uncle has been in the industry for over 40 yrs, he always gets a good laugh at all the videos I show him from these grifters/scammers trying to sell some course, especially the ones that say they’ve traded on Wall Street at 14yrs old 🤣
a fake guru should never challenge an experienced individual
Yup. Guy said he had 7 years experience and couldn't be more full of shit
I never heard of this Spencer guy before now, but watching that video, it was clear to me within about 15 seconds that he has the journalistic integrity of a cable news anchor.
I watch some of his stuff, but i worry about how he sounds. He often sounds exactly like the fake gurus he goes after. Hes reading a script so i kinda get it, but it sounds like hes selling me a course. Coffee is a bit more natural speaker
I’m not for or against Spencer because I’ve watched him for what feels like 2-3 years now and he’s always been very open about his intentions. He’s very fair when it comes to at least giving people a chance to speak, especially with people he’s accused of being a fake guru. I’ll admit that he’s not AGGRESSIVE when interviewing, but, again, it’s been a while since I’ve watched his content.
I usually checked in with his life updates since he does real estate and he’s open about most of his endeavors he’s a part of like car rentals and all of that. I’d say watch some of his stuff and make an opinion based on the full body of work.
It would be sad for sure if he’s going to the side of grifters though, given all of the work he put in to expose said people.
He reminds me of the guys in Costco who come up to you trying to sell mobile phone plans
Tbh, that feels a bit insulting to cable news anchors. They're likely not paid directly by their interviewees. I'd rate this guy at the integrity level of a slime ball.
So basically a corporate news anchor like CNN or Fox News, seems like a fair comparison
Of course, the best way of checking if someone is actually a fraud is to just ask them and believe everything they tell you. I also loved how at the end he was like "I've spent all day here and seen a ton of proof, it's just a shame none of it could make it into the video", especially when he caught him lying once (I don't know if that was before or after recording that part, but anyway). I also don't care that he made a profit once in a 10 minute period, that's like believing someone has a system to win at roulette because they called red correctly once. And for all I know the "students" could be paid actors, or cultist fans that will tell you what you want to hear.
The Cornelia guy has always given me creepy vibes, something off with him. Trader here, the only legit ones who mentor are usually quite old and want to mentor someone for free OR they mentor their friends and maybe get a share of profit. No-one mentors random strangers.
wtf are you talking about? first off what does age have to do with anything hes 25 but has been in trading since 16 so he has 9 years experience. 2nd who tf would work for free thats dumb asf he has close friends around him that are not in his discord and they get it for free but he charges 200$ a month which comes with daily hour lessons along with live trade signals i been in the group for a month and i profited 1,300 this month with a small account that i started with 3,500. and you said no one mentors random strangers ? so what do you say about personal trainers? what do you say about sport coaches? if youre good at something and want to help strangers that comes with a fee you wouldnt be doing that for free
they do if you pay them. you have to realize, the old people live in the era they grew up in in their minds. now that the internet is so sophisticated and available, its easy to teach people for a price. if you are a random stranger and you don't take what you pay for seriously, it's not the mentor's problem. it's the IN PERSON training where you may have more merit in that regard.
@@Ndasuunye Makes no sense at all. If they're really good at trading, they're making millions every year and what they want is time to spend that money. Mentoring someone for a few thousand dollars is just a colossal waste of time.
The rest are just teaching people while they cannot even trade themselves, it's a good way to make money...for them, not for anyone else.
When Spencer interviewed “Micky” and flew out to watch him gamble at all the casino’s and claimed he was legit, I had to unsubscribe. He turned in to a total fan boy in that video and it was super cringy to see. Lost all credibility with me after that.
O yea. That one was quite amusing!!
that was the moment i unsubscribed from him. God that was an awful video. Until now that is.
Same thing here. Instantly stopped supporting him after that video was released. Disappointed to see such a tragic downfall
Also unsubscribed the moment I saw that video. Complete sell out. Told everyone on his channel the guy was "legit" with 0 evidence.

All hail Voidzilla!
@@dbloodymoonI’m submitting my vote for Voidzilla
I watched a few personal finance videos from Spencer when he was still a baby in the real estate space, but I checked out when he espoused "everyone should become a landlord" as the ultimate wisdom, and a min/maxing slumlord at that. He was a shallow materialist slimeball even back then. Just more people can see it now that the grifting is less mainstream than property.
NourTrades himself I would like to see in prison for a long time, although it will probably take quite some time and quite a lot more victims for that to materialise sadly. It couldn't come soon enough.
I am loving the void videos - the longer ones are great, but I like the energy here
Kind of a genius marketing move to go from being an anti-grifter to the guy who gets flown out to verify grifters. Unfortunate to see Spencer leaning into the grifting community.
It's where the money is.. I'm guessing he really believed in that stuff one day but maybe something happened with his finances and he saw openings to make a lot of money

Man, this makes me sad to be honest. I started watching Spencer back when he had 20-30k subscribers and he would show how much he was making and everything. He always seemed like a genuine person with a strong moral compass. With that being said, I've noticed changes throughout the years. From the people he chooses to promote; to the sponsors he'll use. I'm sure the temptation is hard, when you can make a few grand by doing some b.s interview, but Spencer should be smart enough to know the long-term repercussions outweigh the immediate gains.
Same but I stopped watching his videos when he started supporting known grifters 😢😢😢
I'm not surprised with Spencer. I've seen him interview Antonio Brown and some other grifter (separately) he'd gone after previously, and he more or less was star-struck in both videos.
"How did you make 2 million dollars? Did you start with 3 million dollars first?" savage lmao
That Spencer guy sold his soul ages ago already, you gotta be lost in life to watch his bullshit 😂
How? A lot of his content is great value coffee exposing people.
True. I unsubed him after that whole thing with the titles in Scotland.
Damn dude, before watching this video I used to think Spencer is also a internet detective like coffee..
@@KomeFits barely know him but he seems like a yes-man. If your job is to go out and try to get some clarity on someone accused of scamming, and your interview technique is to just let the accused scammer speak without challenging anything, then it's a just PR video.
Also, take a look at 25:24 - like hello? He basically just gave a long winded way of saying "I know I showed none of you any evidence, but just trust me on this, I go you bros, I would never lie". This is ridiculous
Yeah he failed to “expose” micki mase and started promoting him …. Gtfo worst TH-camr ever
Although Nour trades is 100% a scam, as a trader myself, we can usually only make money between session opens and closes when price is volitile. This gives us a smaller window in the day to look for setups thus the reason we can’t just make money 24/7. Otherwise the video is spot on and I respect you calling out these goofy scammers
yeah, Coffeezilla clearly doesn’t understand day trading. trading all day is a recipe for disaster. the market has different characteristics at different times. most successful traders are taking 1-3 trades a day and get out.
I'm curious about the topic. Where would be a good place to go to learn more that's NOT a scam like Nour?
@SteakFromJakeFarm777 I think if one knows about trading its coffee, he doesn't really claims it's the small window itself. It's the fact that Spencer comes in and in exactly the next 10 to 30 minutes they close their day trading... ridiculous
@@krakatoom market open literally only lasts for the first 10-30 minutes of the trading day, so if they were going to make any profits it would be in that exact window. nothing weird about that. check the OP’s comment for context. also I am a Coffee fan, been watching for years, since before Coffeezilla (when he had Coffee Break), and time and time again he has shown a lack of understanding day trading. Which is fine. It’s not his area of expertise. I’m not sure why you think he’s an expert.
Man, that guy seems like the easiest person to convince ever.
Spencer: "It's very easy to sit in your studio and make videos about others..."
Coffee from the Void: "HEY"
hahaahahaha
It may be easy, but it's not ultra profitable - and that's why Spencer sold out.
He's right. It's even easier though to go out and promote a grifter because you're getting paid for it...
literally lol'd at this and came right to the comment section LMAO
It true though I got tired of coffeezilla because that’s all he did
Spencer leverages his image of exposing scams to endorse scammers like that gambling guy. It's a pretty nuts hustle

@@baller84milw that poker playing guy everyone hates? LOL
@@BalotelliFan713 Yeah. The guy claimed to own like 100+ pharmacies and Spencer didn't even push back on it at all. There were even pharmacists in his comment section telling him how it's not even possible for a random person to open one.
Hold on. 300k a month? Why in the world would you need a finance guru if you can piss away 300k a month? That's nearly 3 mil a year. You could make a real estate firm or something.
Right....
Spot on Coffee. Been trading since late 94' and the only thing that should convince another that the money is real is... 1) Trade in real time while others observe day after day... (1-10 minute period won't cut it) 2) And frankly I prefer that to "real statements" because of the way electronic trading has changed. I want to know a person can trade right now, in real time and make money as I observe their money management and profitability level. That's exactly what people observe from me when I've taught a few others.
Spencer Cornelia is the embodiment of "You either die a hero or live long enough to become the Villain."
Lol no... he's really not lmao. He was never the hero, he just managed to fool a few people for a short time.
I think he’s just out of his depth. He doesn’t have the confidence or cleverness to be the kind of journalist that exposes scammers. I think his commentary videos can be ok if a bit one-dimensional, but that video he did with that fake gambling guru Mikki completely changed how I saw him. He can talk a big game at home but when he’s in front of a real deal con man he folds instantly and doesn’t ask any follow-up questions.
This is the most confidently incorrect description of Spencer. He's always been a kitchy real estate bro who props up shady individuals.
@@scamculture The Mikki video was the first time I'd ever seen Spencer. As someone who's primary hobby/recreation has literally become "gambling", it became abundantly clear the stuff Mikki was saying that was total nonsense about it and that he was getting banned for money laundering.
Spencer was called out very early on when he started doing FTX pitches and then failing to own up and call out his buddies for it.
He's been a fraud anti-grifter.
You know the entire thing is fake when they're framing it as "I'm a hard hitting journalist, showing up at this guy to ask him a few questions" and filming him "walking up to the house with his equipment" - but then cut to inside the house where the other guy is waiting for him.
Exactly this thank you 👏
Fist thing I noticed aswell, it just feels like all the fake interview you see on tv. It’s just makes me have less respect for both parties, and prior to this video I had no idea who either were
Yes i was thinking the same thing! Its scripted lol
With a camera already rolling inside
Felt like a PBS kids bit lmao
In Malcolm Gladwell"s book, Talking with Strangers, he goes over how it's easier to be deceived by someone when you meet them in person
Dat trader bootcamp was hilarious 😂😂😂
I get the impression Spencer thinks he's better friends with Coffeezilla than Coffeezilla thinks they are!
They disagreed a while ago when the whole FTX thing was going off. Spencer was friends with all the guys that promoted that FTX stuff and he defended them while Coffee (Andrew) said they should be held liable. But Spencer has a habit of burning friendships and ever since he got a little more successful he has gotten worse about it. Graham and Spencer had a rift and he had one with Meet Kevin and Graham and Kevin had a rift and Spencer then took Kevin's side against Graham and it if it wasn't for Graham, he wouldn't have been a part of that clique anyways. Spencer has burned some people but he claims he is initially skeptical and wants to represent the 'truth' but he also doesn't want to be questioned himself about his integrity or his findings.
funny how spencer fell off. Karma is a bitch@@clifbradley

Spencer falls for the account login "proof" every time. Mickey Mase got him the same way and made him look like IQ 50 and here we are again.
In my opinion, if he does it once, it's a mistake. If he does it twice, it's on purpose.
The Mikki Mase use of the win/loss statements was hilarious because they're easy to fake. The TD Ameritrade/Thinkorswim profit/loss is harder to game (he basically needs multiple accounts and makes different bets in the accounts until one of them shows the profits he shows in the account). Spencer is clearly shilling for these scammers.
You need to look at the equity curve. If he’s winning consistently, the equity curve is smooth and points upwards to the right.
@@aire111I have worked for a it consultancy / system integrator 20-25 years ago and we faked a prototype of an applöication at a customer project to the steering committee using Powerpoint (I left that company briefly after that). So someone showing a screen or two that is supposedly inside some application ,,, not proving anything. Install that application on my laptop (should be easy enough as the trading / depot app would probably be provided from the broker) login and do something I ask you to like change the configuration for the screen layout and lets see that statement again, or execute a specific trade and show the position on the account / depot detail view, contact customer service from the app or similar. You can blurr all details that should be kept private in post.
It is not beyond a fraud like that to fake this stuff when he sets that up. If you just make them go off script, that is a lot harder to do and would make it oborderline believable he is now actually doing something related to trading rather than manipulating his social media image and parading male body builders in the backyard of his rental place for an interview ...

Coffee, big fan and keep up the good work! I do have to disagree with you, however, on the “if you made money, why don’t you trade all day” idea. If you play a certain stock price phenomena that only occurs in the first 30 minutes of the open, then that’s all you trade. Plus there is an idea of “over-trading” which is a psychological pitfall many traders get that leads to getting into lower quality trades because your mental acuity has lowered due to fatigue from being in front of the screens too long. Not defending them (I think these guys are total scams), just giving objective input here :)

This just shows the big difference between entertainment 'journalists' and investigative journalists. If you have a scripted interview with final editing decisions going to the INTERVIEWEE, you are not interviewing anyone, you're no longer having a conversation, you're just acting in a short little scripted segment of a fluff piece. Props on him for admitting that even if he doesn't see the problem with it. And then we have spencer who is also just in this for the entertainment value and has no integrity at all, clearly. I'm glad I've never watched any of those channels, but it really shows the truth behind all these channels that are just for entertainment only.
I've seen some really high quality journalistic work on youtube, such as CHUPPL, coffeezilla, patrick boyle, folding ideas, friendlyjordies, anton is here, andrew callaghan, lemmino, bobbybrocolli, etc. But it's dangerous when there's a vast other quantity of people making entertainment under a journalistic mask. They sacrifice the story for the content, which is fine but should be advertised as such.
%100. the fact that the interviewee knows the questions, and has ANY say in what's asked AND published, means its a puff piece, not any form of honest questioning.
@@vj420100%. There is little harm in knowing the areas of questioning (topic) but beyond that question specifics are seldom actually shared. That’s the exception (presidential interviews etc) rather than the norm. It’s also highly atypical to give the interviewee final approval ability.

I love the "I'm just going to show up and ask him some questions, I don't know much about him" and "let's go inside" when it's obvious they are already setup for recording and already inside the house. That's some real journalism there.
And like... If you actually want viewers to believe you're going to "expose" someone or even just get their side of the story, straight-up admitting at the top of the interview that you didn't do any research before showing up (then demonstrating it to us throughout the interview) is an interesting approach.

I was gonna mention the Internet Archive, but I'm glad to see that you went there already, good job!
What happened to Spencer - I haven’t watched him in a few years but I can’t believe he seems to have gone to the dark side and basically gave this guy a platform by not doing his job to question him.
He was never on the light side. He just hid it well for a while till he tried to defend his grifter friends. Then his mask fell off.
He went to shit after he started taking up shady sponsors, and he defended the results heavily. That started a couple years ago. At this point he's only kinda funny to watch if you like his style of roasting, but even that's gone down the drain
I used to watch Spencer too, years ago.
One moment where people started getting weird vibes from him is when Spencer talked about (if I remember correctly) some dude who got famous by winning big many times at multipe casinos. Which is pretty shady.
After investigating the guy and being skeptical, Spencer said he met up with him and is suddenly buddy-buddy with him and vouching for the dude. Even calling the casino guy 'legit'. Didn't even refute any criticism he had of the guy.
@@Goozero1Yeah that was what ultimately led to me unsubscribing from him.
He's been that way for years now. He probably learned so much about grifting and now he's a grifter himself. LOL
I love the void! This channel is a great compromise between high production content and being able to post regularly (not that the void isn't quality content!)
Yep, love it❤
@@guigoinz112It’s like OG Coffezilla again. I forgot how fucking hilarious his regular personality is
I missed the regular uploads from around two years ago, I love that he doesn’t even let the small guys slide. The deep dive high productions are just as captivating. Loving the second channel
@@FunnyDolphin782 yeah all he's missing is the Luffy straw hat that he used to wear and that lady singing at the end of his videos.
Its not, but its the content we want.
I cannot believe a real estate bro like Spencer turned out to be of low moral fiber?? 😮
I love this channel!
Spencer: If you're a scammer you'll be found out within a year.
SBF: Founds Alameda in Nov 2017, FTX crashes in Nov 2022, gets sentenced in Nov 2023.
This is enough to make me unsub from Spencer Cornelia. Sad to see but I’m not surprised honestly.
Just did the same
Why haven't you done this years ago???
Unsubbed after he defended ftx a few years ago and never looked back
Just unsubbed, sad to see this. Really liked his old content, but I'm not supporting such shady 💩.
Don't forget: He's also a cringelord with the corniest jokes your dad wouldn't dare to utter. Lol
Dude, you are like the only youtuber who has "made it" who is still sticking to the plan. You didn't sell out, you don't promote crappy products, you don't seem to want to merge your two channels to maximize subscriber count but instead separate your content for your viewers.... Thanks for keeping it real.
I love this channel Coffeezilla too. Please do more of these if you can :)
When a video starts off with a person outside of the individuals house and they say "Okay guys here we are! Lets get in there and get some answers!" And a camera crew is already INSIDE THE HOUSE I am not gonna believe shit.
Nour was already doing a 30 day vlog where they recorded everything 24 hours a day
@@IanSingh-ht3mh🤡
That’s a sweet Airbnb he rented
@JJ-hu4zmI was going to say “give it a few hours and someone will find it on AirBNB.” But, no need… lol
thats a fake influence rich flex, mansions, private jets, super cars
@@PizzaCologne3 Never understand why these people would need a private jet. I don't see benefits in most of these cases. I can understand it when every saved minute can help you get more work/business for your company. The amount of time you can save by not needing to wait for a commercial flight can be hours but when you are their industries I doesn't make sense to me. Cars, sure, that's a nice hobby. Houses in your main places of work, makes sense.
@@greenpulp.they don’t have jets. A friend who I worked with at a marketing agency now works for VistaJet and these douchecanoes rent them on the tarmac for photoshoots for three hours, whining about the cost to her because even though they don’t have to pay for pilots, fuels, and other things because they can’t afford to actually take the jets for a flights, they take video and pics boarding someone’s with cosplaying flight attendants and pilots who are just friends, then they show these on their channels pretending they’re ballers… but they’re not, they’re frauds.
Spencer leads the guy to the "right" answer the whole video.
I would be fascinated to see how deep this goes. Does the course money just cover actors or buddies directly? or does the whole Golds Gym crew there actually trade all day, mostly loosing money?
I imagine that “internship” he was doing was just a shadow program. Every student in my high school had to complete one to graduate. You do grunt work to introduce you to the workforce
Yea there is no way any investment firm is letting a 16 year old anywhere near the trading rooms. Bring coffee to the Break Room - maybe. Beyond that? No way unless daddy owns the company.
@@silvioschurig749I don’t even think a rich daddy’s boy would be allowed at 16. No rich trading firm is going to let a child tank their firm. Maybe at like 25 when dads a little older and more thinking about finding a replacement for him at the firm. But not a 16y/o
@@silvioschurig749 Erm actually one of my friends was trading for HSBC at 16. Rare but it happens or happened anyway. He now runs his own firm.
I've done the whole "student worker" thing. Even at the university level all it entailed was doing the jobs no one else wanted to do. You are basically the company's bitch.
spencer is the kind of guy that is well articulate so he seems way more intelligent than he actually is, i still remember when he got blowminded by mikki the " genius gambler "
Loved how Spencer just straight up took a fake guru's word for it. "Yeah bro, so that uh site was totally fake homie, Coffee made it." Spencer: "Oh no shit, bruh? That was the whole point of his video!"
Complete garbage.
"Oh he showed me some apps on his phone so he must be legit" gfy spencer. i feel conned for ever liking that guy (which was several years ago).
I have an English accent and my colleagues pit so much more weight on my opinions, im a fucking idiot. But sounding like you're meant to br there is the easiest way to get clout.
That video where he went to meet up with him is where he changed big time.
The wildest part is that the math of bacc is well known. It's been attacked by PhD mathematicians with supercomputers running simulations for decades. Mikki's claims aren't even remotely plausible, it's analogous to claiming to have "written a betting algorithm that beats roulette". Having lots of money and receipts of big wins in roulette wouldn't prove you've actually beaten the game, just that you've gambled a lot.
I find it hard to believe that an investment firm would allow a 16 year old high school student day trade. Why would they risk their reputation, capital, and business to get a 16 year old intern in front of a Bloomberg terminal.
I don't often rewatch full length investigation videos. But your original post on this guy has had me amused many many times
Wasn't Spencer peddling some scammy NFTs for a bit?
He's peddled a lot of things shitty sponsor wise for a couple years, it's pretty sad.
yep and everybody including his viewers got him out
@@ArcticPrimalapparently not if he's defending this guy
I like how Spenser talked about how all guru's are found out immediately. But last I check Grant Cardone is still around.
Sounds like the people that say if x company is dodgy it wouldn't last long when MLMs like Amway have been around for decades. 🙄
This!
That’s actually not true.
Ever heard about Herbalife
Or how long Bernie Madoff was running his scheme
Great video and job as always. Only criticism I have is regarding the short time trading for the day. Can’t be 100% right with the market so you have to get in and take what you can get. Pigs get slaughtered in the market. Over trading can lead to giving back profits which can lead to revenge trading and eventually taking an L. Hope that provides some helpful insight.
So if his business 10x’d, then he has over $20mm now?
Right, riiiight.
He just said it to say it. Telling coffeezilla that he’s hating making him even more famous which he actually did lol nour’s TH-cam was dead before all of a sudden it’s growing crazy
Spencer comes off as NON CONFRONTATIONAL but ACCUSATORY. Throws rocks and hides his hands.
Could never explain why I never liked him and you just did it for me 🙏
Aka someone paid. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a cutback somewhere for this supposed expose.
“Did you kill your wife?”
“Nooo”
“There you go, I was here to expose him, but now you know it from me, he didn’t do it.”
"you need proof? Don't worry, he showed me all the proof needed, just trust me"
"My buddy was there too to double check me, everything was legit. Take it from me."
Ain’t OJ in Vegas? I’d watch that Spencer interview.
"What would a wife murderer look like"
"I don't know, but definitely not me, because I didn't murderer my wife."
For reals though 😂😂
This is a cringeworthy "accessibility journalism" nightmare. NEVER interview someone on their own turf which can be easily manipulated. Coffeezilla knows better! Your instincts remain *sharper* when you're NOT distracted by the hospitality. Nour should always be questioned off his turf, setting no terms before questioning. Every journalist knows this. Or, you end up like Tucker Carlson pandering to Putin. 😂
I'm liking this channel, havent subbed to the main but gana sub to this one. Keep up the great work!
Stephen, I really love this new channel! It feels like you're just turning on the camera and talking to us about the thoughts you have about random issues you're working on without any filter which is honest and authentic. I love it. Looking forward to seeing more!
Glazing this overweight weirdo online that player hates way too much maybe should hit the gym
Spencer GOT PAID. This man has never been that passive.
Watch when he started doing content with Mikki Mase. This has become a trend with Spencer. He no longer can be taken seriously. He initially created a following “debunking” things, and now he sells himself by cosigning these scammers.
Check out his video about that gambler dude. Homeboy rolls over like a puppy and it's actually really uncomfortable to see the persona he created crumble as he sees those dollar signs. I immediately unsubstantiated and stop watching his content as he's a total sell out.
@@jessewintermute8031
Yea those are the ones with Mikki, it’s pathetic.
No question he got paid. Now he has to defend his payment. I'm not very good with face to face interviews and I apologize blah blah blah but I really needed the money cause I got lawsuits and shit. I wouldn't trust Spencer with a bible in his hand, the type that would put his hands in your pockets while shaking your hand.
I agree. Spencer has lost a great deal of credibility. That interview he did didn't prove much at all
He flew out 5 random students, all who happened to be buff gym rats.
That's not random.
When camera panned over to the all the shirtless guys light curling, I f'n lost it. Oh my god it's like a mix of Reno 911 and Silicon Valley.
The shots of the jacked models, I mean random students, awkwardly working out in a little cluster with tiny dumbbells convinced me that everything seems legit. 😆
Bunch of dudes hanging around a compound doing what one guy says hardly looks like a cult at all.
Wow you think those guys were jacked? What a tell
he was being sarcastic @@23Butanedione
Nour reminds me of those 'Stolen Valor' guys who pretend to be in the military or were in the military. They couldn't make the cut or never even tried, or they exaggerate their contribution. Nour saw the guys on WS making bank, he saw their lifestyle, but he just didn't have the real desire or the ability to get there himself so he pretended to be something he's not.
The issue with Spencer is that his motivation has always been to get rich and have clout, something that he openly admits. So when he gets face to face with these people, he's exactly the person that's easily influenced by them. It's especially apparent in his videos with the gambler Mikki. As soon as he sees shiny objects he's like "well everything's true!"
Yep! Spencer likes to pretend he's so much smarter than everyone else but he's very easily distractible. Flash him a stack of cash or something shiny and he's satisfied.
Exactly, the Mikki video really put into perspective what’s going on with this dude. He’s like the nerdy guy who wants to believe women really think he’s cool when they’re just using him. He’s desperate for validation, and willing to sell out on a moment’s notice.
That Mikki guy is such a fraud.
this this this
Mikki?
That tattoed guy?
You got some reference of him exposed as fake?
Only seen Spencer's video so far
I'm so glad people are finally seeing through Spencer! I got icky vibes as soon as he started defending Andrew Tate on his business practices and when he started becoming buddies with the people he used to call out. I started to figure out he was just desperate for attention and money, and that's all that mattered to him
YES. I was already souring on spencer’s goofy ass, but then his video addressing the tate accusations sealed the deal. dude is a moron.
Kids, keep this in mind: No one can consistently outperform the market. Key word is consistently. The whole point of personal finance as a field of study, actual personal finance not the garbage these gurus sell; is to allow people to understand the essence of investing, so that they can make informed guesses and not take more risk than they can afford. The rest is luck.
Here's the secret to stock trading: find an industry your already familiar with, research the hell out of several companies, and take your nest guess. Thats it. Its an educated gamble, there's nothing to teach in a course.
Or get on board when Reddit feels like fucking over a bunch of rich people. That seemed like it worked out well for a lot of people.
Wrong.
Just follow Nancy Pelosi's stock trades on whatever social media it's not banned from yet.
I remember being a wee lad in college subscribed to Spencer, I look at him now and TRULY can’t remember why I enjoyed the content. Wild. Shoutout to you for sticking to your game the whole time Coffee, you were there at the beginning too but somehow have remained consistent in your mission
Also you def shouldn’t feel bad making this video when it’s a response to a lowkey hit piece on your journalism. It might be goofy but he willingly chose to cover the story in the way he did with you being a large focus so fuck it. I’m sure y’all are both humans that can hash it out but you deserve the right to put out a response
He wasn't such a smug course selling soulless NV landlord back then. He might have stopped selling his course idk either way he's still a smug ass
Agreed! I subbed to Spencer a long time ago & watched here and there. I unsubbed now because this video clearly shows his judgement is WAY off lol
The void is super petty
@@rabbit.of.the.moon_ good job taking action to get him out of your feed, took me wayyyyy too long to realize Graham Stephen is a grifter as well, just recently booted him from the once a year check in list that his channel fell in to
