Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Corey’s Background and Claims

• Negative Net Worth at 40:
  The critic/reviewer introduces Corey as “the biggest scam and con artist on YouTube,” referencing legal filings that show Corey had a negative net worth of -$50,000 at age 40 (00:55).

• Questionable Trading Success:
  Corey claims that followers in his Discord have made tens of thousands (even over $100,000) from his picks, especially citing recent AMD trades (02:24). The reviewer repeatedly expresses skepticism.

  “He basically fabricated almost his entire backstory... In December 2022 he filed with the court that he had a net worth of minus $50,000.” — Critic/Reviewer (00:55)

2. The Discord Experience: Unfiltered Feedback

• Member Frustration & Criticism:
  A large segment of the episode (02:47–06:31) is devoted to reading out negative testimonials from ex-members:

  • Accusations that Corey is “full of himself, also lying all the time” and a “terrible coach.”
  • Allegations of being kicked out or having comments deleted when asking for refunds or expressing criticism.
  • Complaints about a lack of guidance, transparency, and changing strategies.
  • Claims that trade idea announcements in the Discord differ significantly from those on YouTube.
  • Pricing schemes are said to be arbitrary and inconsistent, with one member citing a $5,000 fee for a year’s access, despite being promised lifetime membership.

  “It appears he uses his YouTube channel to work rope people in. Then once signed up he’s on to his next prey.” — Ex-member testimonial (05:16)

  “Most of the group appear to be consistently losing money. His trades are straight up gambling...” — Ex-member testimonial (05:45)

3. Breakdown of Corey’s Stock Picks

• Three Stock Recommendations:
  Corey introduces three stocks he claims can “surpass your full-time job income” through a $100 investment (02:09, 02:24, 07:14, 08:05). The critic calls the claim laughable clickbait.

• Stock 1 – “Server Robotics” (07:14):
  Corey touts its “third generation robot” and recent upgrades, tying it to a strategy he ostensibly teaches in Discord.

• Stock 2 – (Unspecified Name) involving “Galium Nitride (GaN)” (08:05):
  Corey describes it as a technical breakthrough, but the critic questions his trading record.

  “I would love to subpoena this guy’s trading statements…” — Critic/Reviewer (08:08)

• Stock 3 – APLD (Applied Digital) (08:42):
  Corey recommends APLD for its “massive contracted capacity with hyperscaler performance computing.”
  The critic updates that APLD’s price has actually declined since Corey’s recommendation (08:57).

  “Editing David here. And as you can see, APLD is currently trading at about $24. That means that every single one of the three recommendations that Corey made have actually lost money.” — Critic/Reviewer (08:57)

4. Assessment of Corey’s Credibility & Style

• Tactics and Self-aggrandizement:
  The critic mocks Corey’s style, imitating his self-description and trading bravado:

  “I am the profit. That’s why I was living at my mom’s place when I was over 40 years old with a negative net worth. But I’m a stock market savant. You can trust me…” — Critic/Reviewer parodying Corey (06:37)

• Compulsive Liar Accusation:
  The host and critic repeatedly urge listeners to treat all of Corey’s statements with skepticism:

  “In my opinion, Corey is a compulsive liar. If it were me, I would take everything that Corey says and automatically assume that it’s a lie.” — Critic/Reviewer (07:04)

5. Final Thoughts and Call to Action

• Community Engagement:
  David Jaffee invites listeners to share their own experiences with Corey for possible inclusion in future episodes (09:53).

My name is David Jaffee. Welcome to the wealth and Health Podcast where you'll learn valuable skills and positive habits that will improve your life. This podcast originally aired as a video on my YouTube channel at YouTube.com beststopstrategy. The wealth and Health Podcast is brought

[Critic/Reviewer]

to you by beststockstrategy.com $100 into these three stocks will surpass her full time job by Invest With Corey now in my opinion, Invest With Corey is the biggest scam and con artist on YouTube and I don't believe it's particularly close. Probably I would put Felix Pren with Goat Academy second, but Corey's definitely up there. If you saw my video before, he basically fabricated almost his entire backstory. In December 2022 he filed with the court that he had a net worth of minus $50,000. I've been contacted by a lot of people who have joined his discord and who tried to get refunds, but I bet you in this video Corey's going to tell us how awesome he is and how he's been able to call virtually every single price movement. However, in my opinion, Corey is a compulsive liar. I know that when we talk to regular people we assume that what they tell us is the truth, but with Corey, I believe it's the opposite. In my opinion, the best way people like Corey is to assume that everything that they tell you is a complete lie. Let's check out what Corey has to say in this video.

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

I'm going to show you three stocks that if you invest into, could likely and potentially pass your full time job or income.

[Critic/Reviewer]

There's highly unlikely that you're going to be able to invest $100 into these three stocks and then it's going to surpass your full time job. But all right, moving on.

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

Risks with every investments however, these three stocks have shown incredible growth and they've been upgraded by analyst ratings and they've been moving upwards a very consistent amount of time. I'm going to show you what these three stocks are and explain you guys how this and these are the same strategies we go over in Discord. It's how my students were able to make 50,000 60,000 over $100,000 on AMD today.

[Critic/Reviewer]

But that's kind of weird because the people who contacted me let's see what they've said about your community Here you see someone says Corey is so full of himself, also lying all the time. Terrible coach. I even got kicked out of the discord calling him out. Wow, that's unfortunate. Then this person said unhappy member wanting their money. All his messages got deleted and I am fairly certain he has now been kicked off the Discord which is what normally happens. All my messages deleted. Lol. Please refund thanks this is the info members receive in order to make money. Nothing more than calling out large volume moves on stocks from elsewhere. Some sort of dark pool data which has nothing to do with him finding trade setups or strategies as people take the trades blindly. The panic is real when the trades go against them and they don't know how to manage the position. JPM Lulu MSTR I hate to admit it but I got stunned buying into Corey's bs. I had not seen your reviews before I signed up earlier this year so it was too late to file for a refund. Plus I'm halfway around the world making things even harder. Inside his Discord there is a lot of inactive members meaning they have joined in some capacity over the years but they aren't active in there. Anyone who says anything negative, the comments are removed in the member either timed out or booted out. So the Discord is a facade just like his YouTube. It appears he uses his YouTube channel to work wrote people in. Then once signed up he's on to his next prey. Trades called out on his YouTube and inside his Discord are completely different. Inside his Discord he hardly gives any trade setup ideas, no guidance on managing trades. He could say no trades inside his Discord. Then members see him giving up trade ideas on his YouTube the same day. One week he is doing his own analysis on stocks and giving trade setup ideas which caused a lot of people to get stuck in trades when the market crashed in April to recently he just calls out large trades he sees in some dark pool data source and now he is changing again to offering up trades on a risk scale from 1 to 5. He has no strategy and I cringe whenever I see a new member all keen and eager. Depending on the amount members paid determines what they get. The rate seems to change depending on who is asking and then you can read more of this below. He really is from the bottom of the barrel, one that should be rolled off a boat in the middle of the ocean. Yeah, just like that. He had a discord but as soon as I joined hardly anyone was talking. I guess it's a bunch of newbies. I was the one who was the only one basically talking and giving advice. Yes I was in his discord and paid for boot camp and all I had was margin calls and lost a ton of money. He continues to put out dark pool data and making people feel like they are doing it all wrong if they lose money. Doesn't coach or give trades, just continues to talk about himself. His trades are straight up gambling mostly buying short dated call options based on dark pool data only he can see. Most of the group appear to be consistently losing money. This was a dark pool mention. No pics in his room the last two weeks. He never posts in the general room which is surprising considering the cost Someone else wrote do not join his discord. I was a part of it this past year. It cost $5,000 and that only gets you one year. They kicked me out after that year with no warning. I was promised a lifetime membership. Also you will not get a one on one with Corey unless you give him more money. Someone else. You always did it again with your students but the picks gave out recently have all dumped someone else wrote. How about talking about the recent losers too? That always seem to go off the radar. Corey has very bad temper and aggressive responses when someone offends him. Stay away from him to save your money. His YouTube videos are not related to his discord at all. He is not active in the discord, sometimes quiet for days. Only make videos to ask people to join and charge many thousands. Then he will be rude after. Anyway, let's get back to the video so we can see Corey tell us how amazing he is.

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

You see the profits right there. I told everybody to buy AMD back in February and March.

[Critic/Reviewer]

Everyone.

[Corey (Self-Description)]

I am the profit. That's why I was living at my mom's place when I was over 40 years old with a negative net worth. But I'm a stock market savant. You can trust me. I'm so good that even though I had a negative net Worth at 40 years old and during the pandemic I couldn't afford rent and I got sued. I believe that you should pay me money to get my stock Picks understand,

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

good company, thousands of dollars. I'm going to show you guys exactly how to do that right now. If you guys are confused.

[Critic/Reviewer]

But again, in my opinion, Corey is a compulsive liar. If it were me, I would take everything that Corey says and automatically assume that it's a lie. Well, let's see what his stocks are.

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

The serve third generation robot which is a pretty big feat that they accomplished recently. Server robotics has demonstrated significant Furthermore, strategic acquisition generally holds a moderate buy consensus. So looking at serverbotics we can see the right here at 1498. It's above my current AVP which is a strategy I teach in discord. Very powerful might I add it's helped all my students grow their portfolios.

[Critic/Reviewer]

But it's weird that you claim that it helped all your students grow their portfolios but I just read you five or six examples of people who are dissatisfied and a bunch of them said that your members lost money.

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

He is below the current price however. So when we look at this and we ask ourselves how could this surpass your full time job?

[Critic/Reviewer]

Well it can't, obviously. I just use that title in order to clickbait you into watching this video. All right, let's check out what the second stock is that he's recommending.

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

I did tell you to buy it most recently when it was under five.

[Critic/Reviewer]

Sure you did, Corey. I would love to subpoena this guy's trading statements. In my opinion, I don't even think he trades at all. But I could be wrong there.

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

And now with trading feed through its core technologies, gallium nitride, GaN and silicon carbide and other big companies around the world with GAN as well as sic. This is a very potentially huge breakthrough.

[Critic/Reviewer]

And the third one, then more of oh my God, join my discord. Even though a lot of other people say that members lose money. But of course Corey's gonna pump it up. And then the last one I'm driver

[Corey (Invest With Corey)]

is its massive contracted capacity with hyperscaler performance computing, HPC and data centers featuring advanced liquid cooled and high density power delivery directly addresses the exponential demand for a 1 billion at the it's aggressive market capital.

[Critic/Reviewer]

So what's the last one? APLD which is trading at about 2750. Editing David here. And as you can see, APLD is currently trading at about $24. That means that every single one of the three recommendations that Corey made have actually lost money. However, it's my opinion that he's probably either going to forget about these recommendations or he'll just tell people that he recommended them at much lower prices and that all three of them were profitable. Corey still remains on top, by far my subjective scammer mountain, so he's definitely king of that mountain. If you have any questions or comments, then leave a comment below and let me know your thoughts.
