I just hit $200K on Kalshi.
I cannot believe this is real. 3 months after I hit $100K! This money has helped me pay off my car, put me through grad school, help my family with their mortgage, pay off my student loans, and now make buying a house seem feasible.
Thank you @Kalshi
We’ve hit $100K profit!
Thank you to everyone who has supported, helped, and followed me on this journey. Without any of you, I would not be where I am today!
Just half a year ago, I had a negative P/L, with countless people telling me to quit.
I am living proof that if you truly dedicate yourself to something, you can achieve more than you ever thought was possible.
It's time for an update, after a little less that two months. $50 → $3000
Kalshi: +$960
Polymarket: +$1470
@PredictHQ_ +$500
