Hi Johnny, thank you!! Glad you apreciate this idea and I hope I can inspire many others to do the same. The example with $100,000 is just to get a better understanding on how the splits would work. I doubt that I would be able to make that kind of profits with just $1,000 in a bear market. But nothing is impossible and things could change :) I would not advise you to borrow any money to trade. Only invest money that you can afford to lose. I hope I can bring value by showing my thought processes and analyses and help you and many others to become better traders. I'm sorry to hear about your mom and I hope she'll get better soon!
