  1. Thank goodness you brought this up! Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 10 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life. Great piece!

  2. Alot of movements with these guys but most get nowhere. 90% dont beat the market over 10 years, over 20 years? 99% dont. They are just using your money to get rich themselves. You can probably do a better job than most of them.

  3. You need deep,deep contacts with a ton of capital to invest. Real hedge fund managers that standout you don’t hear about them until they have made billions. These guys, no disrespect but who are they and why am I listening to you?

  4. I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my entire life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Mrs Katherine Flores.

  5. Being competitive isn’t the same as being loud. I think it’s important to have a standard of urgency but in a field where urgency can double sword as kryptonite there has to be balance so you aren’t working from a constant burnout state. Flow state is very real and comes from a personal confidence and excitement to problem solving and research.
