Watch these 7 free video lessons on how I became a millionaire

You guys know I’ve been on my “nearly everyone in this industry is full of BS / the financial media is an unfunny joke” crusade for a while now, but with regards to a product that actually does something about it–or claims to–unsuprisingly, I’ve been outscooped by the world’s top financial blogger Barry Ritholtz.

RealScoop uses their special voice analysis technology to measure the believeability of what people say in videos–yeah that’s right, useless talking heads, corporate scumbags execs: get scared. Cute, right? A lie detector and a big scary guy patting a baseball bat standing beside them would def. work better, but baby steps…

    Sorry, but lie detectors are bunk. Pathological liars can convince themselves that what they are saying is true and are thus able to fool any lie detector – conventional or voice based. All they measure is stress levels, which doesn’t indicate lies, just stress.
