I just spoke to a colleague who made ~$4M by trading in Crypto and chased out when it hit~$12K, amazing, what am I doing, since we can trade crypto unless you are working on the client.

Yep. They told me it was up to 40M, but then they lost half in the course of a couple days and that’s when they cashed out. Think they started with a couple hundred thousand and then used a margin account for leverage.

FL peoples: I signed a lease for a new place to start May 1 as my current landlord sold the unit I'm in. Turns out, the buyer wants to keep renting the unit and asked if I want to stay.

For the new lease, I'm still pending full approval from a condo association as I have to do an in person interview. I have paid first months rent in advance. Is there anyway to get that money back?
