    Boesky defined the decade of decadence. I was a teen in the mid to late 80s and I well remember the fervor of the culture of greed. Viewing video clips of stock trading floors of the 1980s is always a hilarious watch.
  • @Q2-iswatching
    I don't understand why certain politicians are not being prosecuted for insider trading
  • @JamesKonzek-xr5zy
    I was taking a business/marketing class in highschool when this went down. It was huge news. 1986. Lol
  • @tryscience
    If "greed is good", The resulting prison term for insider trading as a result of greed, is better! 😂👍
  • @user-zj6es3fq2f
    If you're looking for a solid x100, Revux should be on your radar.
  • @user-sz6ko2qq1u
    My top three for the bull run: ADA, AVAX, and SOL. But the best presale? Definitely Revux.
  • @cmoto1
    I thought this was going to be about the Go Gos and other girl bands of the 80s.
  • @shubhamgamer1526
    Dropped all my small caps – focusing on BTC, Revux, and maybe some ETH.
  • @R2Hgujrati845
    Just shifted my focus to presales, especially Revux. Early investment is key!
  • @r.k.b.m807
    Will Revux outpace XRP in the next pump? Looks promising!
