This past week, I came across an intriguing post that caught my attention – Jason Marquez, a self-proclaimed truck driver with a passion for listening to Michael Saylor on YouTube, shared how he made significant profits by following the advice of the MicroStrategy Executive Chairman.
Marquez disclosed that he made a substantial investment in Saylor’s bold Bitcoin strategy, resulting in him now holding $866,000 worth of $MSTR shares, acquired at an average cost of $46 per share, leading to a profit exceeding $750,000.

Following the downfall of Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX in 2022, Marquez admitted that he became fearful of the market and decided to go all in on Saylor’s strategy as he perceived it to be the safest option. Having experienced losses in previous crypto incidents, including a hack in 2018, Marquez no longer felt comfortable holding cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin.
Many individuals encounter similar challenges when navigating the unpredictable crypto landscape. Suffering financial losses due to hacks and exchange failures can be discouraging, deterring potential investors from participating in the bitcoin market. It’s understandable why Marquez chose to invest in a stock like $MSTR that heavily accumulates bitcoin after witnessing such security breaches.
Fortunately, with increased confidence in this sector, Marquez expressed his satisfaction with his $MSTR holdings and plans to gradually acquire more bitcoin through dollar-cost averaging. Acknowledging the importance of owning bitcoins securely in cold storage in the long run, as fiat currency tends to depreciate against bitcoin over time, Marquez’s strategic moves are commendable.
Currently, Marquez stands on the brink of becoming a millionaire solely from his stock trade, solidifying his financial stability. By dedicating time to comprehend Bitcoin and MicroStrategy’s BTC accumulation strategy, devising and executing a well-thought-out plan, utilizing his hard-earned funds to invest in stocks, and reaping substantial profits, Marquez has positioned himself for success.

This saga of thriving in a bear market is bound to be recounted for years to come. It echoes the tale of the American HODL who sold his car to purchase more bitcoins, resorting to a moped until bitcoin’s value rose.
Personally, I refrained from repairing my car, selectively using makeshift solutions to preserve funds for accumulating affordable bitcoins and addressing the vehicle’s repairs later at a higher bitcoin valuation. Marquez’s narrative stands as another remarkable instance of an ordinary individual seizing the opportunities within Bitcoin, resulting in a significant enhancement in lifestyle. His profits surpassed his yearly income as a truck driver in a single day. Reflect on that.
Kudos to you, Marquez, and best of luck as you continue to acquire bitcoin!
