Hello All,
Started the course this past weekend and it’s like I’m back in university, but again, we all know the real learning comes after.
I started trading 10 years ago at the age of 20 as a way to create residual income for the future. I had a tough upbringing, from death of family, growing up on food stamps and having a kidney transplant at a young age put a lot of things into perspective, one was that I did not want my income to be affected in the future if I needed to go through another one and take 6 months off work. How will my family be taken care of? How will quality of life be?
After losing a lot of money for 5 years, I made enough in 2013 to pay off my college loan. I am now an Investment Advisor (the good kind, I promise) and help people create financial plans here in Los Angeles, CA. I am also on the board of two non-profits where I do financial literacy workshops in lower income areas of Los Angeles. When i’m not of service, I am speaking in conferences around California where I share my story and show people that regardless of our upbringing, we can create the life we want. From what I’ve seen here on the Forum, we are all examples of that.
Looking to create systems for three strategies that I approach the US market with. Thank you Nick and team for creating this and looking forward to learning and conversing with you all.
Christian
