Transparency is everything in this industry. I post every trade, every day. If I'm having a bad month, you'll know it. That accountability changes how I trade.
Every trade I take, I post publicly. My good days, my bad days. Transparency is the only thing that separates educators who actually trade from those who just talk.
I made decisions that were not in the best interest of the company. I own that.
We fund our own R&D. If the product doesn't work, we lose our money, not the taxpayer's. That alignment changes everything.
We are sorry. We managed your money poorly in 2015 and we have not earned the fees you have paid us.
I pleaded guilty. I paid the fine. I went to prison. I accept responsibility. But Binance is still the largest exchange in the world and crypto is still going to change finance forever.
We laid off over 2,500 people. That was the hardest thing I have ever done. I hired too many people too fast during the boom. That is my responsibility and I own it completely.
The Earn situation was the worst experience of our careers. We fight every day to get customers their money back. When you put your name on a product, you own the outcome — good or bad.
The people who come on my show are brave. It takes guts to show the world your financial mess. That is the first step to fixing it.
We signed a power purchase agreement with Microsoft because we wanted external accountability. A deadline with a customer is worth more than a deadline on a whiteboard.
I laid off 20% of the company because I was wrong about the e-commerce acceleration lasting. I take full responsibility.
The July 2024 outage was the hardest day of my career. We caused the very thing we exist to prevent — widespread disruption. We own that, and we will earn trust back.
The sales tactics were aggressive. I take responsibility. When you are growing at that speed you lose control of the details.
I built something incredible and I destroyed it through mismanagement. That is the honest truth.
We raised 852 million dollars. We hit a 4 billion dollar valuation. And the product did not work well enough. That is the whole story.
We made mental healthcare accessible to 700,000 people. Then we learned that accessible and responsible are not the same thing.
I launched an ETF. After decades of telling everyone what to sell I finally have to show them what to buy.
We made a mistake with CartaX. We violated the trust of our customers. We shut it down and we're learning from it.
I owe $3.5 billion to people who trusted me with their money. That weighs more than any amount of money I've ever had.
I show my real portfolio in my videos. Every position. That accountability forces me to practice what I preach.
I made mistakes. Big ones. Running a company for 16 years means you will. The question is whether you learn faster than the damage compounds.
I learn from every mistake. Astroworld the festival will be the hardest lesson I ever carry. But I will carry it.
I say my price targets publicly because I believe in accountability. If I’m wrong, everyone can see it. That makes me more careful.
Most hedge fund managers hide behind secrecy because their returns don’t justify the fees. I’d rather be loud and accountable.
I spent 30 years building a reputation in healthcare investing. The math worked. The ethics didn’t, apparently.
We live in a world of instant replay. You've got to perform every day.
Every day I go to work I think about the thousands of Crane Bank employees and depositors. That is what keeps me going in the courts.
Management doesn't like me because I hold them accountable. That's fine. That's my job.

I have made mistakes. Some of them have been very costly and very public. I own them.
I visit every project we fund. I do not trust reports. I trust what I can see with my own eyes and touch with my own hands.
When you are in business, you have to hold yourself accountable. That goes for the Cleveland Browns, and it went for Pilot Flying J. We learned hard lessons.
I take full responsibility for the actions of the company. What was done at Pilot Flying J was wrong and we are deeply sorry.
Accountability in AI requires more than good intentions. It requires rigorous testing, transparent auditing, and the willingness to fix what is broken.
We believe that the Company's failure to achieve its potential is the result of a Board that has not held management accountable.
