Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, As you're writing this tomorrow is 7/11/2020. As much as this Covid thing is going around, I hate to say this but you were able to boost up your life with it. Although you know at least 5 people that had it including your close family. How did you boost? Well hold on... You have your own business since 2017 with your future wife. You're still going to church as much as you can and don't forget your promise that one day you'd donate the income you earn. You will probably have a kid by the time you read this. I'm 100% sure. Your shop may or may not be open anymore. Wow...did you feel that emotion just now? Jeez that was sad bro.. Before you see read how you boosted your life here are your failures 1) Failed medical 2) Failed Internet marketing numerous times 3) Failed getting a good job after 50 interviews (WTF? True story) 4) Failed your ecom store (not really because you gave it up for the bottom text) 5) Your first college job was $13/hr in 2012 in marketing (WTF) Soooo....here's the situation. Stock Market. By dumb luck you made $1,300 in 3 days. I think you put in $4k which was your annual vacation money + tax return. Tell CCL, GM, and LUV thank you because they were the fuel to ignite this fire. Just like everyone else you FOMO and bought stocks. This happened late March 2020. After nearly spending almost every freaking day and night learning the stock market you're a few months in April-July Do you know how much you made so far? This is from $25k (this amount was taken from savings and the business) Pretty much borrowed money. $25k just to lift the day trading restrictions. You will freaking remember this. +$24,000 PROFIT!!!!! Day trading + TESLA got you from April to July Today you have everything set up including risk management. Your forecast shows that you'll make $50,000 on stocks alone by end of year... Did you make it? If you did, this is 5 years later, I'm going to estimate that you hit $1,000,000.00 already somewhere in that 5 years. I hope you moved out of CA and moved to that cheap $300k house and day trading all day... Remember keep costs low. But I'm curious..How much is TESLA right now? You bought around $850 last month and it just hit $1500 today. Remember they did not do any stock splits. Also Thank you Elon Musk. And you're about to be on your 3rd Corona beer. Thank you Constellation brands for making beer, I'll have to put you on my long term. One last thing...tell your kid I said hello...or kid(s).
