Anyone willing to pay that loser 10BTC/hour will end up broke.
Based on the guy's track record you can be sure to get bad advice lol.

I am willing to send the raw data to somebody (.xlsx) by email/skype if he promises to publish it (sorry I don't know how to share files efficiently
). It is 450 transactions and I have already done some preliminary analysis such as grouping the trades in 15 minute brackets as shown above.
6 hours of trading for a gain of 176,000m
BTC. If we add the 2 hours of moving the btc for the scare-walls in and out of Gox, 2 hours of premeditation, and 2 hours of backend, it is 12 hours of work.
In my understanding I just made 14,667m
BTC per hour. So I don't see realistically, why I would be obliged to surrender my time for any less than 10,000m
BTC as a consultant. Many people in my level don't just sell their time.
I think the 2927 dollars I "made" was at least partly fees, and perhaps I left some money uninvested in some account. This is parsed from multiple accounts that I control in Mt.Gox in the name of Eesti Investeerimishobe OU. (Remember always to pay your taxes, I pay them legally to Estonia at a flat rate of 0% VAT and 0% corporate tax.)
As for the 10BTC/hr, it's subjective and probably worth it to some people because this is a very specialized field so you can't just call up any old financial advisor, and if nothing else, rpietila has the reputation to be trusted not to run off with your money.
Calling me is voluntary! If you are sure that you cannot recoup the price of my advice, don't call
My number is +358503235950 for consulting calls only. Book your time via SMS and have the bitcoins ready.
Narcissist or not, the guy is honest and a stand-up businessman: a problem I recently had with a silver delivery from him was handled extremely well and to my satisfaction... on a sunday.
Yeah, just remember to notify me when the silver arrives
I redeemed it on its way to the recipient because the delivery took "too long" (as if it was not public knowledge that the postal system treats PM shipments badly).
His motto seems to be: think big, talk big, act big. It's what bitcoin needs (the middle part is optional, but doesn't hurt). As long as he doesn't despise the small business I (and other might) have with him, I cannot attribute him with arrogance, either.
I don't despise anyone, but for the reasons outlined above, I am not very keen on doing small business anymore. The micro-silver-deals that I made in March, were just to gain some postcount really. I think I made a loss on them, but I write it off as marketing expense. In reality I do, and want to do, deals that net me in excess of 10-20,000m
BTC per hour invested. With such wages, I don't need to work much to be able to maintain my lifestyle. I urge the others also to be content with what they have, and if not, buy some bitcoins while they still are cheap.
Happy trading! <3
