[Kevonz @kevonz_]

my stock portfolio hit 100k at 21 years old.

sharing my investing journey with FinX:

i started buying stocks at 15 years old because i wanted to be rich and this seemed like the best method at the time. worked a summer job at a summer fair picking up trash for 2 weeks under the hot summer sun. accmumulated about $2000 from that and gave the cash to my dad. i told him to buy me $TSLA, bitcoin, and ethereum.

keep in mind this was 2019. my first bitcoin purchase was at $6000, and ethereum was $200 at the time. dad called me stupid but it was my money so i made the call.

fast forward another summer, i was raking bunkers at the golf course for minimum wage but this time it lasted longer and i made 10k throughout the summer. idk why but i had no urge to spend it on anything except stocks. this time, i bought $NVDA, $PTLR, and more $TSLA. but also copped some shitters like $NIO and $ARKK. my investing thesis as a kid? i wanted to build my own PC but nvidia gpu’s were always out of stock, so i bought the stock lol. i bought pltr and tsla because of @pakpakchicken yt videos. honestly just got lucky.

those small early bets built the base of my current portfolio. only stock i sold early was $PLTR (at $40), but scored multiple 10x gains otherwise.

my interest in stocks have since compounded. now i conduct research for the love of the game (and to obviously reach financial freedom). i started posting my stock picks on tiktok/instagram and amassed 160k followers in less than a year. mostly because people like my track record (3-5x on $AMD, $LUNR, $NBIS) and want to make money but i cope by thinking i have a fun personality too :D

i want to start documenting my journey on X now. this is my fav social media platform but ive always been intimidated by the high iq density. so if this is your first time hearing about me, hello im kevonz and welcome to my page!

my current asymmetric bets are $HIMS, $AMD, $SOFI, $RDDT, $ASTS, $NBIS, $INFQ.

99% of retail investors are incapable of long term investing. they sell at the first sight of red, unaware that all great companies go through periods of pain and turbulence.

which stock is going through this phase right now?

Poker attracts a weird concentration of high performers. The overlap between people with slightly degenerate risk tolerance and outsized success is larger than most people think.

Tldr go to more poker nights

[Kevonz @kevonz_]

$AAOI is down another 5% after markets, surely this is a buy at this levels right?

[Kevonz @kevonz_]

[Kevonz @kevonz_]

@StonkValue You think it’s still a buy right now?

[Kevonz @kevonz_]

@growthrapidly Im debating if i want to go shopping for $AAOI and $DRAM this week. What do you think of memory joel?

[Kevonz @kevonz_]

@eadro02 @YodaStockInvest yeah i think $NOW has better upside

[Kevonz @kevonz_]

@Noobfull1 tell me more about it noobfull

[Kevonz @kevonz_]

i hit 145k followers on IG in 10 months

from posting on social media ive:

> made 30k/mo by my third month of posting
> attracted multiple opportunities at startups
> found myself in rooms with people id never expect (CEOs, nba players, etc.)

here is my advice for anyone that wants to get started

> find your edge. for me it was investing content because ive been stock picking since i was 15 yrs old, and it made the topic really easy to talk about. making videos feel FUN because of the natural alignment
> be analytical about how your videos perform. the algorithm is a black box but it's fun to solve and optimize for. constantly test and iterate ideas, hooks, CTAs, etc. and when you find something that works, double down on that hoe
> be yourself and provide genuine value. sounds cliche but in a world of AI slop thats your moat

one small decision to start completely transformed my life. imo building a personal brand or creating content (instead of just consuming) is the biggest asymmetric bet you can take, and the risk is just judgement from friends/family

conquer the feelings of embarrassment and the world will be your oyster

@jaesmail Used to be 1 but now im trying to lean into 2

life is a series of games you can optimize for

college admissions, tech interviews, dating, growing on social media, etc.

sooner you realize this and choose the games you want to play with intent, the sooner you'll "win"
