Adam Mesh, a finalist on NBC’s “Average Joe” and star of the spinoff “Average Joe: Adam Returns,” earned millions by day-trading. But 3 years ago, he sold his interest in his company and became a “trading coach.” His free trading tips go out to 60,000 readers daily (available at adammesh.com). He also authored “The Average Joe’s Ultimate Guide to Making a Fortune in the Stock Market.”
Mesh wants investors to take their money into their own hands for two fundamental reasons: Nobody cares more about your money than you do, he says, and brokers don’t receive incentives to make you money, but to make trades.
