Investing 101 (and also in hindsight!): Don’t invest in anything you don’t understand and can’t explain!


Unpopular opinion: Weekend meet ups / conferences are ok, but not as imp as resting and fuelling up for the week. Choose your time wisely! It’s a long road ahead, pit stops are as necessary as the race!
