I heard very similar advice from someone who pops up on the Top 20 registers of all sorts of shells and micro plays. The play being get set early, buy plenty, wait for a liquidity event then take your initial capital out, let the rest ride. Options are a bonus. Being careful to get set after a raise and consol with the less shares the better.
@mouse its been awesome watching you improve as a trader. Especially the way you are so transparent about your learning and journey.
I think back to my earlier days and can remember debating points - which I had an opinion on, but no real clue - with some of the people you are referring to.
Now looking back myself doing almost everything that those wiser suggested and realising it would have been so much simpler just listening to begin with. Instead, ploughing on .. determined to make the mistakes myself and learn it the hard way
Surrounding oneself with like-minded and smarter, more experienced people the best way to get ahead imo. The STT thread and those on it a perfect place to begin.
Well done on the heart.
