This is a story about a comeback. The protagonist is an ordinary person without a background or shortcuts, but with a casual suggestion from his father, he seized the opportunity with 100,000 yuan, multiplied it by 200 times, and achieved financial freedom.
This is one of my friends. First, he has been in this industry long enough, second, he is low-key enough, and third, I think he is not exploiting anyone.
Moreover, his entire story is quite inspirational.
What I learned is this?
First of all, in his early years, his dad was a professor, teaching economics. One day he suddenly told him to research blockchain, saying, 'I think this thing will definitely be popular in the future.'
At that time, he was still in college, and he felt that since my dad asked me to study, I would study.
But the cryptocurrency space was not that mature at that time, and there weren't many people around who understood it. He felt it was confusing and didn't pay much attention to it.
Later, after he graduated, what happened?
He felt that he wanted to do business and wanted to do something related to finance. He had such an idea and dream.
Then he found the simplest shortcut. At that time, everyone in Wudaokou knew, right? Beijing has several so-called incubators for entrepreneurs, which we call executive training classes, and Wudaokou is one of them.
He connected through family relationships and met a professor who teaches at Wudaokou. He got to know him and became his assistant.
Seeing that this young guy is very inspirational and ambitious, and his education is not bad, he stayed as a teaching assistant. At that time, it happened that blockchain was very popular, so Wudaokou invited speakers to explain what it was about and help everyone keep up with the times.
Information disparity is something you cannot fall behind in all business. You may not invest, but you must stay informed and have new information. So, talking about blockchain is essential.
He listened and learned while learning, and after the class, he realized one thing: my dad told me this one or two years ago.
Moreover, in such an elite place like Wudaokou, they also invite people to speak, and those who come to speak are professors and experts in this field, so it shouldn't be wrong.
So he started to study hard. When he thought he had done enough research, he called home and said he wanted to start testing the waters. At that time, he might want to invest in some BTC or do something.
His dad then said, 'I will give you 300,000 yuan to do this.' He said, 'No, I only want 100,000 yuan.' He said, 'If I lose all 300,000, the pressure will be too high, and I might lose confidence. I think if I can make it, I will do it. If I can't make it, I will find a way to pay you back.'
Then the family gave him 100,000 yuan, and just like that, he started using all the knowledge he had learned. As luck would have it, he caught a big trend and with 100,000 yuan, how much did he earn? It seems he earned over 2 million yuan, multiplying it several times.
Then he suddenly went through a period of expansion, feeling very impressive.
At that time, he returned to Northeast China, and after going back, he treated his childhood friends to food, drinks, fun, and sauna, spending hundreds of thousands. During the process of enjoying spending this money, he also invested in a few things.
He thinks the judgment is quite good, and as a result, these have increased again. Anyway, his starting point is 100,000 yuan, and he has lost and made mistakes many times in the middle, but he has turned this 100,000 yuan into something, you know, a lot of money compared to that principal, but his principal is only this 100,000. All the losses or earnings during the process are from the money he earned with that principal.
On this basis, one lucky thing for him was that if you always think you have control over something and you can get money easily, it is very easy to lead to destruction.
At that time, it seems he was in a relationship, equivalent to dating a girlfriend for many years, but during his expansion process, we don't know the specifics, the two broke up. This breakup hit him hard emotionally; he is a very sentimental person; otherwise, we couldn't have become friends. So he was very down and depressed at that time, isolating himself from some bad influences around him. As a result, during this phase, he might have figured out a lot of things and understood his greater pursuit.
Slowly, he didn't feel so inflated anymore and returned to a more long-term perspective, perhaps seeing things from a different angle, and step by step arrived at where I recognize him today.
The reason I recognize him is that I have seen many people get rich overnight in this industry, but I rarely see someone who can still maintain a normal mindset after becoming wealthy, and his life has not changed at all, with no so-called extravagant enjoyment. He has been continuously investing in new projects, including overseas ones, and he has been considering which ones might be better for the next three to five years.
Moreover, one thing I particularly appreciate about him is that friendships and emotional matters should be seen in how he acts during his low points. After you have gone through money, you should not just listen to what he says; what he actually did to you is very important.
