I’ve gone through a lot of different ideas of what I want to do with my life. I know, it’s not expected for me to have a definitive answer at this point but people always like to think that you know where you’re going. Luckily, I have some sort of plan. I will be attending UNC Charlotte in the spring semester for finance. How I decided to settle in a degree in finance was a combination of experiences I had when I was in high school. The day I turned 18 my dad and I set up an investment portfolio. This Investment Portfolio is completely under my control. I am allowed to move money in and out of it and I’m responsible for maintaining it. This was my first window into what a finance career could look like. In my senior year of high school, I was required to complete a large project about something I’m interested in then presented to a panel of judges. I took this opportunity to learn more about the financial markets and learn to day trade. Day trading is a special type of trading where you buy and sell a stock position within the same market Day. I actually invested $1,000 of my own money for this project. I really enjoyed this project. It gave me great insight into some of the real stuff that I could be doing. I really look forward to the future and am eager to see where this takes me.
This is the learn plan profit platform. This is the software that I used to identify strong stocks and what I had to learn to read to successfully day trade for my project.

while looking at your blog I noticed that it was well organized. I liked the fact you gave a background about why you want to go into the major. I thought it was really cool how you put your own money into your project, it shows true dedication. I like how everything is planned out and I wish you the best in every thing you do in years to come. I may be attending UNC Charlotte also after I get out of my engineering program here. maybe one day we could work together. I think the title name was clever, saying that every thing is a building block to any career.
