That was like you would have been like ecstatic with that.
10:23
I would have been like I thought having that corporate job on Wall Street was it.
10:28
And so, I mean, of course, true to everything else, when something bad happens, everything else also also goes back.
10:35
Because once I came to New York, first of all, I was again, I only knew about New York through like sitcoms like Sex and the City and Gossip Girl and like Friends.
10:45
And I'm like, oh, my gosh, I'm in New York.
10:47
I got myself a job.
10:49
I had an apartment in Upper East Side.

1 HR 4 MINS LATER

74:37
Yeah.
39:54
How are you feeling about this particular stock?
39:57
So I'm, I'm very, very tech-heavy in my portfolio.
40:00
I have always have been.
40:01
I'm an engineer, and my husband is.
40:03
So my first thing is always invest in what you know.
40:06
Invest in what you know.
40:07
So my assistant, she shops at Costco all the time, and she, the first thing she bought was Costco.

5 MINS LATER

45:31
... do you try to pull information from both sides to give you a bigger snapshot?
20:35
Do you feel like it's something that you still work on consistently or was it something that you were able to shift and then it's like set it and forget it or you're still constantly kind of working on that mindset? What's your take on that?
20:47
Yeah.
20:47
So, I mean, it really depends where you want to go.
20:49
So there was a point.
20:51
So with triple compounding, this is 2021.
20:53
I made my first million.
20:55
2022, I handed my husband divorce papers.
23:49
He was like
1:33
I don't know why they get oversold in the first place.
1:35
Well, it's because of the hype of the software side, and it's because people are very driven about headlines.
1:41
Do you remember when we were here at the beginning of Iran, Iran war, and we're always like, "Hey," you were like, "When, when is this gonna be over?" I was like, "The headlines are gonna go away about, in about two, three months, and then the market is gonna go back up." And what did happen? So headlines do drive, and people don't think about what is actually long-term here.
1:56
Because long-term, right now what is happening? The US has spent a lot of its missiles.
2:01
They're gone.
2:01
They have to rebuild that.
2:03
You, you cannot win a war, you cannot defend bombs dropping on you with software, so you are going to need to repleni- replenish that.
6:02
We've got some work to do here, but are you th- why is it happening now? Why is this move happening right now?

4:05
I mean, does this apply specifically to just Bitcoin or would you say the broader crypto asset class?
4:11
I do this for stocks.
4:12
I do this for everything because I know if I watch a headline, I'm going to get emotional like we're humans.
4:18
So that is why I create my exit strategy or buy strategy before.
4:24
Like when it reached $125,000, I already set buy limit orders and I apply this to stocks as well.
4:32
If there is a stock that I really want to be in, if there is an AI stock, if there is a, I don't know, dividend stock that I really want to add more to my portfolio, I don't wait for the headline to hit to then go in.
4:44
I create a strategy beforehand.

5:15
But really, what do you feel is the most important chapter and overall takeaway for readers that want to start building their wealth more strategically with less panic, per se?
speaker_0HOST
0:17
So when we see these times of panic selling, which often, of course, accelerates further declines, how do you go about finding opportunities? Because that, I think, is a very difficult question to answer with all the volatility we've seen.
0:30
Absolutely.
0:31
I love volatility so much, especially when it comes to assets that get hyped up.
0:37
So Bitcoin is only one of my asset class.
0:42
I'm actually very heavily invested in Nvidia and Amazon and all the things that you were discussing before in Google.
0:47
When it comes to any investment, I love looking at the history because history doesn't often repeat, but it does rhyme.
0:55
And when it comes to Bitcoin, it has a very, very repetitive pattern.

So talk to us a little bit about what you describe as triple compounding and what you mean by that instead of maybe what typically people think of in terms of compound interest and investing.
