How I became financially independent
It all starts long before when out of the desire to create something we have never seen before and out of the motivation to be better I started to document myself and work on my dream.
Everything has not been easy until today, I started as a child when I saw my first investment book in a library in my city. At the time, I couldn’t imagine the benefits of that book and that kind of information. And now I remember how fascinated I was with that book cover. It was a cover with a man whose face saw the happiness of success, it was seen that he was on the verge of success. Slowly, after reading that book that made me feel different, full of motivation and hope, I started the first lesson in that book.
I had started selling various things that I had taken from the fair, I thought that a pile of junk could be for me and for those who knew how to capitalize on an opportunity to get rich. That’s how it was when on a sunny day I went with my father to look for things that I would later sell to acquaintances or on various sites of valuable things. There I noticed a very complex picture created as if for a very important person. I didn’t think long and I negotiated with the seller the price of that painting and I managed to buy it at half price. I offered $ 10 for that painting.
After the purchases made that day, I was left with -100 dollars. Arriving home, my father and I examined the picture that seemed very valuable, out of the hundreds of paintings that that seller had, I saw the one. The painting turned out to be very expensive, certified by a specialist in the field of art, on that painting at that time we were offered the amount of $ 10,000. I was super ecstatic that with just a $ 10 investment I was able to make $ 10,000.
I considered all this money as a bonus that I did not touch and I did a second very important thing from the book I had read as a child, I invested the money in shares in the bank. This investment proved to be very profitable, my money as a profit on that painting had increased tenfold. The stock I bought a long time ago had made me $ 230,000 richer in 10 years. Of course, that investment was secured by me and in the meantime I have raised around $ 4 million in assets, real estate investments and development, all my efforts from then until now have made me financially independent.
If I were to go back in time, I would be grateful for that financial education book that showed me some of the most important decisions I could make later. Everything fell apart at that time with a clear purpose for making money and I was not determined for my purpose. I couldn’t figure out earlier what I wanted to do and what would make me financially independent, but with the help of that book and the books of that kind that I read along the way, I managed to grow quite a lot.
It is said that if you aim at the moon you will reach at least the stars in a lifetime, then I could not even aim at the stars but over time I learned to accurately change my plans and desires that I have from myself.
