If the problem was bobo losing real money then why not have them do the bit using marketwatch's virtual stock exchange? it follows real stocks and you can choose how much money to use and other rules. this post is mostly for sam to hopefully see.

it wouldn't be fun if its with fake money.

The bit would be... they set him up with fake money but convince him it's real and it's their life savings.

Realistically it wouldn't be fun, regardless of whether or not it's real money. They would either have to commit for at least a month, restrict the assets he would be allowed to buy to stuff that's ridiculously volatile, or force him to always buy on margin if he's long.

If there was a way they could have Bobo trade in futures contracts or options that would be fun because a ten cent change in something like gold would mean that Bobo would gain or lose 16 times that.

The fun is him losing actual money. Without those stakes its a spineless Opie bit.

I hope Bobo's Wall Street journey plays out verbatim to Wolf of Wall Street

there's nothing more exhilarating than the risk of losing millions of dollars of fake money.

A better bit is having bobo negotiate their contracts.

Because that wouldn't be fun.

Go suck on your near-beer
