As a child, my goal was to retire by 40. However, as I grew up and entered the workforce, I realised it would be much harder to achieve that goal with inflation & bracketed as a lower income earner. By 2012, cryptocurrency was becoming a buzzword. everyday Joe's were investing and that it just wasn't for Wall Street. Over the past three years, I’ve doubled my crypto & stock investments, holding a steady yield thousand throight those years. Recently, I’ve decided to push for that 40-year retirement, hopefully through investing and a few other social experiments.

How Did You Stumble Into Stock Market?

Only 10% make money in the stock market. 20% break even. 70% lose money. This is the famous “7-2-1 Rule.” And with the volatility we saw this November, it felt like the market was designed specifically to torture that “70%.” Despite all this, investors confidently enter the stock market. It’s only after losing money that they regret it, saying, “I shouldn’t have traded at all! The money I lost would have been better spent.” So… How did YOU stumble into the stock market? ◯ Buddy’s briefing ◯ Platform’s pushing ◯ Accidental advent ◯ Nemesis’ plotting
