First things first, let me tell you a
little about who I am (Maurice Kenny)
and why I became a day trader.
Originally, I was successful in IT
before I became the person I am now. I
was in my early 20s already working my
way up the corporate ladder to the point
where I became an IT Director making
over $100,000 a year. You can call it
what it is - I was "Living the American Dream."
Everyone told me to go to college, get
a good degree, and then make good money
working for a company for 40+ years then
eventually retire.
Well, I did as I was told for 5 years.
Eventually getting laid off time and
time again from different companies for
all different reasons. I worked my butt
off, not 20 hours, not 40 hours but
50-60+ hours a week so that they would
keep me.
I even gave up my free time so that
they could control my schedule to ensure
I could work as much as they needed me
to. No matter what I did, I would keep
getting laid off, year after year.
I'm not saying you should feel bad for
me or think that I am upset at the 'man'
for doing this to me. What
I am saying is that
this was the best thing that could have
ever happened to me. Life made me take a
180-degree turn and kept kicking me in
the direction to start working for
myself and become my own man.
I don't know about you, but my family
is too important to me to play around
with and not have enough money to be
able to financially support them and
provide what they need and want.
Today, I day trade for a living, have
spoken on stages to educate others, and
teach people how to day trade by
becoming my own boss, planning out my
entire day, and only working as much or
as little as I want.
Now I can say, money-wise, I'm living
very comfortably, to say the least. At
this point, I want to help other people
do the same, but only if they're
serious.
