Wall Street Insane! EP05: Omid wrote a 10 pages letter just to quit James! The Rise and Fall of The StockPickr

Episode Summary

Episode Five of Wall Street Insane! This is a great episode, where we talked about the rise and fall of StockPickr, and how Omid wrote a 10 pages letter to quit the company and me!

Episode Notes

You know, back in our hedge fund trading days, it was so stressful that Dan and I seriously thought about pivoting to selling Diet Pill on Television! 

after failing 9 of the other ideas, we eventually started StockPickr, which was eventually acquired by Thestreet.com. It is at that time, Omid wrote a 10-pages letter, and he quit me! 

We also talked about how we get connected to thestreet.com, how Jim Cramer crashed our website, how it was rebuilt and optimized, how Omid actually felt about the whole StockPickr and Thestreet.com's deal, and how I could never work in a corporate.
