Wall Street Playboys - anyone still follow them?

I remember there being a discussion about these guys and their blog years ago and that most people on here who had heard of them were fans. They've had great content in the past.

Was curious if anyone still follows them? They recently went full crypto crazy. I suspect these aren't the original creators of the website but who knows.

Their industry overviews threads are really helpful. I' also appreciate if BlackHat and brotherbear comes back to post more often.

I still follow them. The original website doesn't exist, but I am putting together a document with links to all of the old content as a reminder to myself. I read the blog religiously over 5 - 6 years but stopped once they re-branded. The blog and their books shaped my worldview and I've seen their advice play out in many scenarios - finance and behavioral. I didn't do much with the advice, but that is a different topic. They still guest post on the substack, albeit rarely. I did subscribe to the substack for brief periods to catch up on some of the articles, but they skew towards crypto. The long-form posts on e-com success stories and investments and predictions are still very informative, though. 

 

I had the same thought. I think they sold the site/persona to some sort of crypto grifter type people. Everything is crypto now, besides some one off guest posts.
