I was a little bit of a cocky kid.

It is a certainty that Herbalife is a pyramid scheme. We believe it's harming a population of low-income, principally Hispanic people in the U.S. to benefit a handful of super wealthy people at the top of the pyramid.

I am always prepared to do the right thing regardless of what other people think.

If you look at the great frauds of all time, Enron had that phantom trading floor. What Herbalife has is it has phantom or fictitious customers.

You can learn investing by reading books.

Herbalife: the customers are fictitious, the business opportunity is a scam, the university degree is a fraud.

I'm not emotional about investments. Investing is something where you have to be purely rational and not let emotion affect your decision making - just the facts.
