@ericnomics: I worked at my family’s laundromat at the age of seven, folding clothes and selling detergent. I worked a lot as a kid, earning minimum wage. I wanted to make some extra income, so I started investing, but I ended up losing my entire paycheck on a stock I heard from a friend that I knew nothing about. Then I got a job on Wall Street, and that is when I started to truly learn how to properly invest, analyze stocks, and make passive income just like the professionals. I started applying the same disciplines to my own investing, which is how I went from a minimum-wage job to $1.3 million. All on a regular 9-to-5 job.
