From Belief to Action: One Investor's True Story of Reaching Financial Freedom!

Today I am sharing the story of an investing student from Taiwan. In 2022 this student faced many challenges and opportunities, seized every one of them with an optimistic attitude, and earned astonishing investment returns. More importantly, he was able to turn the information we provide into his own action—and that is what real learning is. In the letter below, he shares everything he went through in 2022, without a single word changed.

Dear Teacher James,

I sincerely send you my greetings and wish you good health and success in all things. As a believer in your teaching, I hope to share with you what I have gone through over the past year.

First, I want to mention 2022. That year was full of challenges and opportunities for me. In December 2021 I heard about the investment opportunity at CLEC, and in January 2022 I made a bold decision: to go all in on the market, choosing to invest when share prices were at a high.

To make sure I would not sell those shares, I decided to pledge them as collateral, forcing myself to be unable to trade them easily. I kept looking for funds to add to my investment, buying stock whenever I had money. At the same time, I dug into some topics that few people understand or discuss, such as the ideas in "Buy, borrow, die: How the rich avoid taxes." This thinking sparked my creativity and influenced my investment strategy.

During this process, I relied on my monthly salary to repay the loans, and whenever I had spare funds I invested in 00662. As the stock market fluctuated, I began to use credit loans to go all out buying stock. I even pledged my stock and borrowed 15% of its value to buy more stock. I held to the conviction of buying and not selling, kept my money working, and worked hard to pursue gains.

By April 2023, I finally saw the first light of profit. However, because of market volatility I could no longer keep buying stock at low prices, so I made a decision to switch to investing a fixed amount on a regular schedule. Since the stock market gains were substantial, I was able to use a small part of my salary for family travel expenses and give my family a better life. I have also attached photos from this week's family trip, spending the Dragon Boat Festival at the Regent Taipei; for me this trip felt like a pilgrimage.

Finally, I want to share something I learned from Teacher James. Only by wanting to keep learning can you find answers, and only in action can you gain true knowledge. In practice I obtained some confirmation, and formed my own understanding and my own way of doing things. Because I really did make money this year, when I promoted the C-L-E-C method to friends I showed a little of my account statement, which sparked much more active interest and willingness among them. I firmly believe that it is not enough for one person alone to become rich; only when everyone becomes rich together can friends share life's joys with ease.

These are the main things I experienced and went through in 2022. I am very grateful for your patient reading and for your willingness to guide me each week on the road I should take during this time. If you have any questions or would like to hear more of the story, please contact me at any time. I look forward to your reply and your valuable advice.

With sincere wishes for your health and happiness!

Your junior, believer, and promoter

The above is my personal experience & edited with ChatGPT. AI is an enormous technological advance, yet it can also trap people in ever more laborious work (exponentially growing work demands). If you do not understand investing, you will be trapped in an endless rat cage.

Let me share something a professor said with feeling in a class I once took: "The Industrial Revolution was originally meant to free humanity from labor through machines, yet in reality humanity fell into a pattern of even longer working hours."

The computer revolution, the internet revolution, and the AI revolution have each made our pace busier and busier~~~and of course they will also be the force that keeps pushing QQQ up to break through its previous highs.

I feel very fortunate to have encountered C-L-E-C and Teacher James. I think I will be lucky enough to gain financial freedom from working labor in 10 to 15 years~

May all those with good fortune be able to hear your good news~
