When my ex-wife first left me, I made a promise to myself that I would start taking control of my life. From that moment on, my investment journey began as I tried my best to prove to her that I could “be a man” and actually make money.
I ended up losing everything we had within weeks. $10,000’s, including my marriage. It was a seriously humbling experience, and to be honest, it was one of the lowest points of my life.
Since then, even though I got totally destroyed, I saw the potential in it and I’ve been at it for years trying to master the art of investing and trading. It’s basically just numbers, but it's also extremely elegant to me, and the ebbs and flow... I find it to be somewhat spiritual, as my mind directly effects my trading.
I did well with cryptocurrencies and have established myself a solid foundation. But honestly, it’s probably not as good as it could be, but I’m thankful for the lessons. When you go from nothing to $1,000,000 within 3 years, it does take you by surprise!
I have been pumping out some serious hours trying to master a particular way of trading. It’s just collating data, and it’s a massive headache if I’m honest. Particularly because my process is probably all over the place.
But if I can get it right, it will hopefully be a source of income for the rest of my life. Once it’s set up, there’ll be very little effort to upkeep it. Maybe 15 – 30 minutes a day.
I’ve made some break throughs – major break throughs. I don't want to get ahead of myself like I always do, but it really does look promising, I'm just not sure how promising. I still have to keep testing.
But, like all things, I’ll just keep pushing forward. Now I seem to have an energy which doesn’t disappear.
So, while it’s frustrating, there’s only one direction to go….
