    In Texas and I cannot even leave my $6.5K watch in my $100K truck without it being broken into and/or stolen. That is why I love Tokyo

    • @ElvisSirinBo
      @ElvisSirinBo 10 днів тому

      Tokyo's safety is evident when someone making $25 million USD per year leaves three high-end watches in a parked car without concern. Even if they were stolen, the financial impact on him would be minimal, akin to an average person losing an umbrella.

      One lesson I've learnt from billionaires is to always put your money to work, and diversifying your investments. I'm planning to invest about $200k of my savings in stocks this year, and I hope I make profits.

      No worries, we all start somewhere! 📈 First, grab a comfy chair and some popcorn 🍿, and dive into some beginner-friendly finance videos. Start with basics like "investing for dummies" and "how to trade stocks 101." When you're ready for more, also consider financial advisor like "MARGARET ELLEN WHITLOCK"-I came across her in a CNBC interview, she's like the Yoda of finance! May the gains be with you! 🚀💰

    I lost over $80k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Charlotte Miller.

      It's not just Japan, it's all around the world. Why would they share their secrets if it would mean more competition or losing the edge? One thing amongst millionaires (and I know several) is that their mind is the same, so this video shows the mindset is way different to those people who work 9-5 and choose that lifestyle.
