The domain, WallStreetForum.net has existed since 2001 but there was never an actual forum on the domain space. It was purchased by KOURKE, LLC in 2015 and made into a finance forum.
As this forum grows we’ll have at least a few knowledgeable members that will help others find their way to financial freedom. With this site, I want to dispel a lot of the myths associated with Wall Street. The principal of which being that wall street is a place that takes all your money. I want people to realize that wall street is not some terrifying mythical creature that brings nothing but doom and gloom.
The reason most people don’t go after things like careers on wall street is because they are scared of risks. They are scared of failing. Muhammad Ali once said, “He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing”. People need reasons to not try. In other words, they need excuses. Have you ever thought about what it means to take a risk? Have you ever realized that you take all kinds of risks every day of your life? When you get in your car you are risking your life because you could get into a wreck and die. But for some reason, you never hear people say I’m not going to drive a car because I don’t want to die. Why? Because the benefit of driving a car outweighs the risk of it. People need to look at the stock market just like that. Sure something bad could happen but more than likely it won't and even if it does it probably won’t be so bad that you can’t recover from it. If you stick around this forum long enough you will see that wall street can be an extremely beneficial entity if approached with respect and determination.
I believe no one should have just a 9 to 5 and that you should do anything to get more money than you need. Not for the sake of being greedy but for the freedom that comes along with it. A lot of people think having a lot of money is all about buying stuff but there are millionaires and billionaires that spend less in a year than thousandaires. Having a lot of money allows you to get up at 11am and watch tv while your friends are at work. A lot of money allows you to go on vacation at the drop of a hat whereas average employees have to save up money for a vacation and request time off.
