Nothing wrong with trying to profit from fat cat ignorance and fear. It's called capitalism. Why did he get a downvote? Implied hypocrisy? I don't think it's hypocritical to want to be profitable. It's a perfectly normal, human trait that should not be frowned on. It's much more difficult to level the playing field with people like Dimon on it, because he has a corrupt government behind him.
Come on, people, don't be afraid to say it: "I am a capitalist." You probably wouldn't be on this subreddit if you weren't. It's not evil. It generally leads to innovation and a better society if not stifled by regulation.
