Wow, what happened in 2014? Did you take a break? Could you explain what happened during those numbers?
And make sure you go for the jugular and not back off because you realized the friendship was more important than any $$.
When I started back then I had several accounts (IRA/ROTH/CASH) that I kept track of individually. For me, the track record is about keeping the bullshit out, show proof in the pudding kind of thing, similar to what I try and judge others by. Showing three accts would be subject to manipulation so after that I lumped the sum together. How much? Can I say that for sure 2012 start was less than 6 figures and now this year I am up in excess of 7 figures (but not much more)
While there are many success stories in the market--- i don't think there are any true rags to riches stories like an entrepreneur boot strapping a business among individual, non prop, non outside funded traders. The reason is it takes money to make money and if you have enough to make it as a trader on your own - you are not starting out poor or rags. I started my publishing co with $15.00 and a car. Made millions ( not annually) over multiple years with zero additional monetary investment. That could not be done by a trader. Just saying surf
Very inspiring both of you... Do you think you could have made the first 7 figures faster? Surf, you say you are not wealthy, but that's wealthy enough to me My goal is to hit the 7 figures.. But no rush at all.
Yeah. Everything is relative-- i live on an island with extraordinarly wealthy folks so i often feel poor ( which i am in comparision). But its very motivating for me. That's a great goal. No doubt you can do it! surf
