I bought ARM stock back when the iPhone first launched. That's really the only trade I've ever made. I was young and didn't have much to invest but I was pretty confident at the time.
Back when I had excess money to save, I really only used index funds, robo investors like wealthfront, and hodled.
Understood the vegan trends back in 2018/19 when Beyond went public. Bought at IPO and rode it to the top that same day. Easily doubled my money, probably more.
In my overall trading career, I'm at a net negative... by a lot. So this victory is essentially meaningless.
Placed a huge futures bet on Pittsburg to win the Super Bowl in August 2008. They defeated the Cardinals Feb 1st, 2009. It took 4 weeks for 4 payouts, after arguing with the casino's owner Big Tony every day; luckily a sportsbook ranking site called SBR helped, who had quite a bit of influence on governance of the off-shore gambling space. The winnings were tax free as it was offshore. I took all the money and bought various stocks. The market bottomed 4 days later in March. I didn't bet on anything for another 2 years. When I tried again, I found out I was banned by Western Union and Moneygram permanently. And that's how I was introduced to this thing called bitcoin. Online offshore gambling was actually the first illicit marketplace for bitcoin, not SilkRoad. Big Tony was kidnapped and murdered shortly after—for his bitcoin.
I got out of the marriage market when I divorced wife no1. Got back in after a while with wife no2. Huge improvement and going to hodl now!
👏👏
