Not a notable investor, just a kid who hit the news a couple of times. Drmies (talk) 02:12, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - Being "just a kid" has no bearing on notability. Kids become notable when reported on by reliable sources.  That said... I'm not convinced that Zero Hedge, value walk, and fusion.net count as reliable sources for this subject.  So, I'll lean towards delete on this one, but I might be able to be convinced otherwise.

 * It's not the "kid" part... Drmies (talk) 20:33, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as I myself had encountered this and would have also nominated soon, nothing at all regarding the solidity of any minimal notability. SwisterTwister   talk  02:31, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete Per nom and Fieari. I can't find anything good. ThePlatypusofDoom (Talk) 12:02, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete nothing here that asserts notability enough for inclusion. Sir Joseph (talk) 21:00, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete I did gNews/gNewspaper searches under a variety of styles, from his name to his companies, etc. Nothing reliable turns up, just blogs, blurbs, YouTube, LinkedIn, and so on. Not enough reliable sources can be found in order to establish notability. One brief Fox News mention and one brief KTLA segment do not notability make. And I don't think he was writing to Santa in 2007; has to be another Jacob Wohl, no? (He's not asking for a Bloomberg terminal, for instance. Just sayin', is all.) Also, in general, the article fails Notability (people) as, for example, he's too new at what he does to have achieved historical significance. Geoff &#124; Who, me? 23:37, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Insufficiently notable. Promotional article written by two SPAs. Softlavender (talk) 02:37, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Edited to add: Aw isn't that cute. His Assets Under Management are about $200,000 and he has over 20 investors -- so each "investor" (read: mom, dad, and a few of their friends) has invested less than $10,000. Calling this a "hedge fund" is insane; it's little more than a glorified piggy bank or playtoy. Softlavender (talk) 07:47, 17 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete non-notable investor. He is managing about $200,000. While I wish I had that much money, this is not a significant amount of money in even a very small scale economy.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:53, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
