By fading the print out after a few interesting paragraphs, you don't make me want to subscribe you just piss me off.
That's because you suckered me into reading something I couldn't finish without paying.
If you told me that at the beginning of the article, I would have more respect for you and, who knows, might have even considered subscribing.
If you are sincere honest journalist don't function like a pimp.
For anyone else looking for access: This particular article is the web version of the excellent daily Money Stuff newsletter by Matt Levine which you can subscribe to for free https://www.bloomberg.com/account/newsletters/money-stuff .

Just subscribe to Matt Levine's Money Stuff newsletter which I do. And am not a journalist but have been frequently called a pimp :-)
And, sorry that you are having a bad day, go punch a pillow or something..
