Hello, and welcome back to the Bulletproof Entrepreneur podcast, the first of 2024.

We’ve  got something special for you to kick off the New Year!

‘Bitconned” is currently one of the top shows streaming on Netflix around the world is and it features my guest Ray Trapani.

It tells the story of 3 young hustlers who get caught up in the murky world of crypto investing and ultimately create a criminal enterprise and make millions.

There are so many twists and turns, and if it were a fictional story, you’d dismiss it as being too far-fetched to be believable, but it's true and it’s quite extraordinary. 

Frankly, our conversation is a warning to anyone thinking of investing in cryptocurrency. 

To hear from someone who spent years deeply involved in the shady chat rooms and learn how he was able to manipulate the system should be enough to put you off going anywhere near it - or at the very least, doing lot of research before you part with a penny 

And make sure it’s money you can afford to lose - as there is a good chance you will.

Consider this a public service announcement and share it with anyone who is considering getting involved.

  • Early in our conversation, Ray candidly shares a traumatic childhood experience that had a huge impact on the man he became and the life choices he made.
  • We discussed the role that Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) has on the market and why people see prices going up (often artificially through market manipulation) and are desperate not to miss out.
  • We explore the role of celebrity endorsements and so-called finfluencers - if you see a celebrity endorsing any financial product, view that as a red flag and give it a miss.
  • Ray shares exactly how he invests his money now as an insider who knows about crypto and what goes on in that market. - you may be surprised by his advice
  • After everything he’s experienced, his own personal definition of true wealth that he shares towards the end is profound.

From Long Island, New York, ladies and gentlemen, I give you Mr Ray Trapani.
