OMG!! it must take so much courage to share this story publicly. I couldn't imagine what would my teen son do if he is in the same situation. Please share a book list that helped you during that dark period. Thank you again for the story. You are helping ppl beyond finical aspect.

The Market have been suffering over the past month, with all the three indexes recording losses in recent weeks. My $400,000 portfolio is down by approximately 20%, any recommendations to scale up my returns before retirement will be highly appreciated.

[@Henrydonald1]

The market is volatile at this time, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.

[@jacksonlucas5933]

I agree. Based on personal experience working with an investment advisor, I currently have $385k in a well-diversified portfolio that has experienced exponential growth. It’s not only about having money to invest in stocks ,but you also need to be knowledgeable,persistent,and have strong hands to back it up.

[@Emily24338]

I’m new to all this, heard it's a good time to buy and basically I've just got cash sitting duck in the bank and I’d really love to put it to good use seeing how inflation is at an all time-high, who is this coach that guides you, mind I look them up .

[@jacksonlucas5933]

Sure, the investment-advisor that guides me is..

You work for 40yrs to have $1m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $10k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multi millionaires. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

[@henrymark1379]

You're right, but a lot of people remain poor due to ignorance.

[@danielhancock6953]

Not because of ignorance, It's because of the high rate of unprofessionalism in the crypto market.

[@PatrickBiedenkapp-rb2gi]

The crypto market has been unfavorable for months and i keep losing my money selling off during dips, i'm very scared of holding right now. how do you guys still make so much?

[@danielhancock6953]

As a beginner investor, it's essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable . Myself I'm guided by Mrs Olivia Brown, a widely known crypto consultant

[@clarabrown9920]

Crypto is a whole different ball park. I would only invest funds in it that you are willing to lose or don't need. In terms of day trading crypto I don't keep a eye on anything at the moment except XRP. Wouldn't be right guy for day trading crypto

[@jowaller69]

That was so uplifting. I watched while sitting here working on my own business that I just started and believe me this video will be played on repeat on those days when I want to just give up.

[@gissy888]

Good luck to you 🎉💃👍🏾

[@diegopradillo2743]

Your ability to be vulnerable was inspiring. Been watching you for about a year now and looking forward to listening to you more

[@vkwan0o]

Inspirational story! I’m 39 and currently stuck in a corporate job that I have no passion for and hate. Pay isn’t great, and working with all boomers who are literally at the age of retirement. I need to act on creating my own business or I’ll be stuck here forever. Thank you for your inspiring story. Everyone has obstacles and working pass them along with consistency is what will make you successful.

[@KillierElite]

Thank you for sharing. We need this. Congratulations and I hope you and your family have a very happy thanksgiving. Take care be well.

[@dennisethan2189]

BUILDING WEALTH INVOLVES DEVELOPING GOOD HABITS LIKE REGULARLY PUTTING MONEY AWAY IN INTERVALS FOR SOLID INVESTMENTS. FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT IS A CRUCIAL TOPIC THAT MOST TEND TO SHY AWAY FROM, AND ENDS UP HAUNTING THEM IN THE NEAR FUTURE. PUTTING OUR TIME AND EFFORT IN ACTIVITIES AND INVESTMENTS THAT WILL YIELD A PROFITABLE RETURN IN THE FUTURE IS WHAT WE SHOULD BE AIMING FOR.

Natural, there's a lot of math involved in forex trading. but this is often presented in forms of daunting technical charts, indicators, patterns.

[@angelaward6177]

Such a beautiful story, Joshua. Congratulations on always believing in yourself and all of your great accomplishments. You're such an inspiration to so many that may feel the same way you did in your younger years. I wish you so much continued success, and I hope this one video changes millions of lives. You speak the truth.

[@marlonargueta]

Your description of how you felt when you got arrested was the same way I felt when I got arrested. But, I was charged for my own stupidity... long story! Great story man. Keep going.

[@Lowdermoomoo]

Been there twice as a Hispanic woman, never been arrested but the situations were the most degrading and humiliating moments I’ve ever been through.

[@jackodonnell9950]

Thank you for sharing. Great story.

[@HaboubTalks]

I completely agree with you, Becoming unstoppable is a mindset, its not reliant on your conditions. Well done bro

[@graphenebusinesslaw]

The openness here was beautiful. I am so sorry to hear the H&M story, and genuinely feeling upset having heard it. As a business lawyer (although I practice in Canada, and can't help you in the US), I strongly encourage you to speak with a lawyer about your story, if you haven't already. If what you said is true, being forced to "admit" to falsities, being publicly degraded and dragged out of the story in handcuffs, not to mention serving a sentence, being arrested, and all the legal atrocities here, plus the mental health implications you likely still experience. If you haven't already, please speak with a lawyer about this. Your story matters, and it seems that you may be able to afford good legal help now. I work with many successful people, and so many have that one wound that plagues them, no matter how successful they are. You are young, and it's ok if the H&M story still mentally affects you, having been kicked out of college, etc., but you don't, and didn't, deserve any of that. You may have been embarrassed to share your story - don't be embarrassed to seek legal help!

Thank you for sharing your story. I've been struggling to show up for myself and just get started. I too have had an arrest that I'm beyond ashamed of and it has really messed with my confidence since the start of the year. Thank you again for sharing your story. Everything happens for a reason and me seeing your story was my sign to just do it. Keep showing up and let be what will be. Wishing you a happy and prosperous 2024

[@AllAboutCarzz]

Thanks Joshua very positive and motivating.

What an inspiration. Thank you for sharing man. Giving me hope as a new KZbinr.

[@Kenoji8]

Josh, as always, thank you for your videos and inspiration. This is needed now in the world that we live in and I think we all have the potential to reach our dreams if we really think about who we are and what we are meant to do to help our fellow man and not just punch a clock for a meager wage. You're awesome and thank you for all that you give to us!

[@AndresDCRealtor]

Congrats on your success & never giving up!!!

[@rawinkedshop]

Amazing Story ! Never Gave Up Really Needed this Video

[@LNStrange]

This video really spoke to me. On a personal level. I am still in the beginning stages with this channel but have been doing KZbin for 9 years now, with this one being my fourth channel. I have a few videos that are going viral now that's helping me catapult my channel. I feel like I'm walking in your shoes right now as we have very similar upbringings. (Serial-preneur). I'm 32 years old and always felt a passion for youtube. Never knew telling paranormal stories would get me here. But thank you for this video. Hits me right in the feels.

[@AlphaConviction]

Your perseverance is why you got to where you are & why you're going to accomplish a lot more. Much respect king 🙏

[@PatrickLloyd-]

Putting well-earned money into the stock market can’t be over emphasized for first - time investors, unlike a bank where interest is sure thing! Well, basically times are uncertain, the market is out of control, and banks are gradually failing. I am working on a ballpark estimate of $5M for retirement, and I have a good 6-figure loaded up for this, could there be any opportunity for a boomer like me? I'm nearly 60.

[@sattler96]

Sincerely it's best to seek an advisor right now, unless you're canny yourself. As a business owner in both the service industry and eBay reseller of all product categories, I can tell you we’re in a deep recession and everyone is running out of money

[@PhilipDunk]

Very true, people downplay advisors role, until burnt by their mistakes. I remember just after my layoff early 2020 amidst covid outbreak, I needed to stay afloat, hence researched for license advisors. Thankfully, I came across someone of practical knowledge, and decades of experience, my stagnant reserve of $325K has yielded nearly $1m after subsequent investments so far.

[@mikeroper353]

@@PhilipDunk That's fascinating. How can I contact your Asset-coach as my portfolio is dwindling?

[@PhilipDunk]

My Financial adviser is Vivian Carol Gioia she’s highly qualified and experienced in the financial market. She has extensive knowledge of portfolio diversity and is considered an expert in the field. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
