Over the past few years there has been an explosion in the number of ways an average investor can invest their money. In the "olden days" (i.e. 5-10 years ago) retail investing was a stuffy suit-and-tie sort of affair that felt inaccessible to most. The things available to invest in -- stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc. -- had been well established for decades.

Today the barriers to entry are gone, and anyone can invest with a click on their phone. The world of assets you can invest in now includes things that were previously inaccessible (e.g. fine art, exotic cars, and even startup companies like Legion M) as well as things that didn't even exist a few years ago (e.g. crypto currency and NFTs).

Investors' biggest problem today isn't ACCESS to investment opportunities, but INFORMATION that allows them to separate the signal from the noise.

This is one of the big reasons that Legion M signed on as an executive producer for the upcoming documentary feature This is Not Financial Advice. Produced by the exceptional documentary team at Optimist, the film promises to "explore the psychology of investing through the story of the "Dogecoin Millionaire" (a guy who cashed out his life savings to invest in a joke cryptocurrency) and a generation of new investors powered by the internet and social media." In addition to being wildly entertaining, the documentary serves as an informative look at the investment landscape of today, contrasting some of the wildly different strategies investors employ as they attempt to conquer it.

As an executive producer, Legion M has made an equity investment in the production of the documentary with potential to earn revenue based on its performance. In addition, we have a marketing partnership in place in which Legion M will earn revenue and work with the Optimist team to promote the film.

The release date is TBD, but is expected to be sometime in late 2022 or 2023. We'll share more information once we've got it, but in the meantime you can learn more by visiting the landing page.
