Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I made a guy $4.5m on $900k and he hates my guts. Said it took too long. This is SOP. Jokeโs on him I donโt give a fuck.
Imagine being such a stupid asshole that you are upset at the way Michael Burry made you millions of dollars (while everyone else went bankrupt).
"He has mortgage eyes: one fixed, one variable." - Top YouTube Comment.
Burry blocked me on Twitter.
Was never mean to the man.
Sniff
When he used other peoples money to place the bet he was โextremely confidentโ
Heโs one of us bois
He wouldโve gone broke if the fed decided to buy up every dog shit clo and print infinite money like today. 2008 was a bygone era, when people believed that the fed would be somewhat sane.
Holy shit you guys are retarded. What fucking year is it? 2012?
Was it really a bet though?
He did the research (and the math) and realized what was going to happen.
It was pretty much a sure thing.
I mean, it takes a retard to figure it out but he did it.
You just learned this?
Burry has self diagnosed Aspergers in himself. It's been on his Wikipedia stub since the big short came out.
