Introduction

It is a lonely journey to build a successful career, I have to work on my advancement continuously. With great learning experience, I have over 10 onsite interviews from Facebook (3), Amazon (4), Microsoft (2), Google (1) from 2008 to 2021. I learned so much from those interview experience. Last two years, I started to learn how to invest on stock market, it is tough since I did not make any gain on my Questrade.com TFSA accounts. Last 11 years, I did not purchase any real estate in Canada. 

Case study | Lack of confidence | My impulsive decision making | Six months efforts

Recently I sold my 20,000 shares of GTE stock at price 0.91/ share, after Amazon onsite, in less than 2 weeks, the price went up to 1.10/ share. I guessed that I must be lack of confidence on my own research.

I have to watch out myself to check my confidence level. I have to learn how to work with myself better. Train myself better to handle stress of investment.

I have a wonderful life in the city of Vancouver, stay healthy and enjoy simple life. Being frugal, I choose to stay at a tiny bedroom rented, drive a 2001 Honda accord, in July I chose to ask my neighbor to help maintenance jobs in order to cut cost, a series of jobs including coolant flush, air conditioning fix, gasket replacement, climate control unit order in ebay and replacement, fix of front body dent etc., in total of $660, and work on equity research, and being a lonely investor on stock market. 

I just keep learning. So much fun in terms of 55 year old, I did run 10 K race first time less than a month ago, and also take care of my frozen shoulder, try to warm up my shoulder every day before going to work. 

I also like to solve more algorithms on Leetcode.com. And also I like to post more videos on Instagram, and learn how to use my Google 4a 5G more often to record good videos and I like to be creative, learn more on Instagram.com.
