“I’m Scared to Death of Losing Money in the Stock Market!!”

David Mitchell • August 8, 2022

Did you know that the amount of wealth that you have the potential to create for you and your family is directly proportional to the amount of educated risk you are willing to take?


If you’re afraid of losing money in the stock market, you’re not alone.
But have you ever thought about WHY it scares you?


Have you ever questioned whether that makes logical sense?


The thing is, the American school systems have been systematically rooting out the entrepreneurial spirit of America for the last 50 years.


Whether it’s first grade, twelfth grade or the college systems, there’s hardly anything at all taught about entrepreneurship, about money, or about how money works in our schools.


Even in an MBA program
you’re mostly learning how to work for a higher boss in a big corporation–not how to run a business yourself.


But if you go back just a little farther in history
, the original American style was to have a family business where each generation teaches the next generation the family skill sets.


Over time, those skill sets would add up and become incredible–so that the young people coming up in the family business have a strategic and competitive advantage in the marketplace.


(A very different way of looking at things–and, as we’ll see–a more profitable way.)


Which attitude are you fostering in your life? In your family? In your business?


In this very important episode I’ll cover …

  • What the family business is all about and how it can impact your family’s ability to generate wealth in a big way
  • How to re-discover your entrepreneurial spirit–and use it to guide your financial and career choices
  • What appropriate, educated risk is (and why you need more of it in your life)
  • The best way to create ZERO wealth (don’t let this be you…)
  • How to calculate a risk/return percentage for your stock plays (and what percentage to shoot for)
  • The best book I recommend for stock traders wanting to start to change how they think about risk/return


And much more!

Experienced traders know this: Sometimes trades go against you. It’s going to happen. And it’s normal. But here’s the thing you need to know: You only need to get 5 or 6 trades out of 10 right to win in order to be profitable, and to have the potential to change your life financially. The key to becoming profitable isn’t to have every trade go perfectly. It’s to win big and lose small. And a good rule of thumb to shoot for is making a 30%+ return on a trade when it works, and only losing 8-10% at the most if the trade doesn’t work. If you want to learn more about how to maximize your gains and minimize your losses, join us for the next Unlock the Stock Market Challenge, where we’ll teach you the foundations of trading in just five days.
