The person behind the quest
A developer with a full-time job and one very ambitious side project.
I've wanted to be rich for as long as I can remember, and I've failed so many attempts. Or can I really call them attempts? I don't think I've ever really put my heart and soul into anything I have done. It's time to change that now.
My net worth is okay, but I want to do a challenge. An insane challenge. Can I turn $1,000 into $1,000,000 in only 38 months?
I have a full-time job, so everything I do has to happen early in the morning before work, or in the evenings. The fact that I have a full-time job is great, because it takes the pressure off making money on the quest. I'm not going to use any of the money I earn from my job though.
Why "The Trading Quest"?
I get some nostalgic feelings when I hear the word "quest". It takes me back to the good old days when I played a lot of computer games. And a quest is exactly what this is: a long, hard journey with a clear goal at the end.
