My financial journey began in 2008, a year marked by the Great Recession. At 18, I was working basic jobs, running track in college, and figuring out my future. Despite the challenges, I managed to save diligently and began educating myself on investing.
My first investments were small, but they sparked a passion for growing my wealth.
In 2010, I saw an opportunity at QuikTrip, where I started earning $40,000 a year, which was huge for me. With this increased income, I was able to invest more, and my investments began to show significant returns. Now making as much from investing as from my 9-5 for the first time, my confidence grew. Despite working at a gas station, my net worth took-off.
However, in 2015, I faced a major setback with margin trading, which led me to lose a lot of money. Realizing my mistake, I decided to focus on long-term investments again, where I had the most success anyway.
I then started my Real Estate Marketing Company in October 2015, which provided a decent income but not enough to fully support my investment goals and family.
In January 2016, I launched my YouTube channel, Financial Education, to share my knowledge on stock market investing and financial topics. The channel quickly grew, and by September, I decided to focus solely on YouTube, helping thousands of people achieve their investing goals.
Today, I run the Private Stock and Wealth Group, My Patreon Community, and 1000xstocks.com.
I believe in the power of the stock market to build wealth and want to help others achieve the same sucess I had.
