0:03 If you have ever checked your portfolio at work and immediately regretted it, you're in the right place. So, which one of these guys are you? It's going to the moon. It's all going to crash anyway. It's FDIC insured. Because I have been most of these guys at some point in my life. I'm Blake. This is 9 to 5 Investing and I'm a CPA. I started my career working as an auditor at EY. Got tired of the late nights, so I became a financial accounting manager at a solar company right up until it went bankrupt.

I also dig into stocks where the analysts are calling for big upside and I show you who those analysts actually do business with because that part matters a lot more than the number.
