From Doubt to Dividends: Trusting My Instincts in a Changing World
When it comes to people doubting me, I honestly appreciate it—especially when it comes from friends, family, or even those who once dismissed cryptocurrency entirely. Their skepticism just reinforces the fact that I’m often ahead of the curve when it comes to things I genuinely care about.
Back when I was younger, a lot of my ideas about the world were considered unusual. I believed in the potential of cryptocurrency during its early days, convinced it would one day evolve into something much bigger. I saw it as a future trillion-dollar industry—and now, here we are, with the market valued in the multi-trillions.
It wasn’t just crypto. When I predicted that marijuana legalization would begin with decriminalization and medical use before broader acceptance, people brushed it off. The same happened with certain stock picks—like AMD, back when its shares were trading at just $2–3. I saw the long-term value, and time proved me right.
I’ve had plenty of moments where I could have said, “I told you so,” but most of the time, I just let it go. That said, I’m now in a position to act on my instincts and put real weight behind my convictions. With the financial flexibility I have today, I’m turning those predictions into real opportunities. Even now, I’m watching some of my latest calls come to life—and this time, I’m making sure they pay off.
