Update: 'It'll cost you $1.8 million': Business owner asks financial advisor to invest money for him, then refuses to pay advisor's share

A young business analyst saw an opportunity and didn't let it slip from their grasp. 

If you're looking to make a lot of money fast, you can certainly try the stock market. There are no guarantees in this game---you could also end up super broke or in debt. But if you play your cards right, just like u/TheBreakUp2013 did, you could net yourself some cold hard cash. 

This person provided a quick update to their much-beloved story about a deal with their boss that went wrong. They write that as a business analyst, their boss trusted them to invest his own money. The company's owner approached the OP to tell them the plan: invest a bunch of money into the stock exchange and see if they could make it big. If you have $1 million to invest like this owner did, that's a fine strategy. In the end, the boss lost out just due to carelessness. The OP should just keep investing that money, and reaping their well-deserved rewards. 

Check out this entire tale below, as well as commenters who applauded the OP's methods. Then, before your next international trip, check out these 30+ spots that are popular tourist traps you should avoid at all costs.
