I think this guy thinks his video marketing is helping, but he is comically bad behind the camera.

am i the only one who wonders if that dude is sane enough to be managing 1.7 billion?

Interesting guy(not good interesting)..

Actually, I've known and worked with Mark for several years.  He and his entire staff have an impeccable reputation of integrity and are committed to the success of their clients and the coaches who serve then.  I would encourage you to challenge and stretch your thinking and investigate what their firm is about before you make such an assertion.  As an example of the belief that free markets work, apparently with $2.3 billion under management the message does work.

Mark - You need to write a script. Follow the script. It will eliminate the "ums" and stutters.

I’ve worked with Mark Matson for a few years now and in my 16 years of experience in the financial industry there is NO ONE with more integrity than him. I use him exclusively as my money manager.

Ok. Quit creating usernames to post how great Mark is. Do you see just under the area where your name is and posts. It says 1.



This is certainly not integrity.

I don’t understand all the hate being spewed about Mark Matson.  In my time as an advisor he has been the one to help me grow and has been the primary money manager I’ve used.  I don’t think I’ve met an individual with more integrity since I’ve joined the industry.  Please show some consideration before coming on here and bashing someone with a track record of Mark’s.

Oct 2, 2009 1:54 pm

No one was bashing until he started making up fake names and posting.



Ok, maybe someone was posting hate, but I wasn’t.

Also, why is the video about not wearing suits, when all of his TV appearances have him wearing a suit?

Seems to me that Moron, I mean moraen is having some serious life issues here.  It speaks volumes that he would take one guy’s video blog site and create an entire subject about it on this forum.  Is Mark Matson really his problem?  He needs to stop before more people find this topic and start to feel sorry for him.  Bigger battles must be waged, so no more time for me on this stupid and childish topic.  At least Matson is doing something and not cowering in the corner like most of the advisors these days!

Morean, telling someone to write a script for video blogs is now considered "hate speech."  Please stop before Jessie Jackson starts posting.

First of all Mark, I didn't start the thread. And then I tried to offer friendly advice (i.e. - write a script Mark!). Then, when you started creating fake names and posting about how much INTEGRITY you have, I called you on it.

Mark, I don't have any life issues. I have issues with people who pretend to have integrity and then create fake names in order to post things.

Also I notice that you have no more time for this stupid and childish topic Mark. Interesting since you only have one post.

As for cowering - you've got the wrong idea. No cowering here. I left my firm in the middle of this mess to start off on my own. You think I'm cowering.

Here's my favorite line: Go fcuk yourself!

That hilarious… they all joined today… The guy is a clown and so is his website, and he uses dimension funds(those did well over the last 10 years) so technically he should be managing much more. Plus I think he has something like 1500 guys who just send money his way.

Seriously.  These guys aren’t the brightest stars in the sky.  You all decided to join today and have one post under your name, defending this clown.  Get a clue . . .

  Lmao!  Ok, honey.

Wearing a suit might not make you honest, but wearing one of those shirts he has on will make you look like a dipstick.

  I think in my next video blog I'll go w/o a shirt.  Screw the establishment and their fancy suits.

I am a former employee of Matson Money.  I can attest that PBarnard and JChoi DO indeed know Mark Matson--and are NOT Mark.   And that Matson Money is a legitimate company with integrity.  I will add, however, that Mark Matson is an insanely egotistical nut.  His whole company is founded upon nepotism.  His sister-in-law is the VP of Marketing (pulling in over $300K a year, with no college degree) and her mother is her assistant.  And her cousin is the Executive Project Manager...sorry to say that there are a lot of hard-working employees there that don't get their due--because heaven forbid the executive family members feel threatened due to their own inferiority and inabilities.

Mark is a very brilliant (no matter how cheesy) guy.  If he would pull his head out of his a$$ and take note of all the wonderful employees that make his company successful --even inspite of his family members--there would be no ceiling of complexity to be had at that company.
But when you have employees who are "job-scared," and Mark is surrounded by a few "yes-men"-- Matson Money won't be able to reach its full potential.
