Building generational wealth is something that everyone wants to do, but not many understand the available options. Latoya Smith worked in finance and dabbled in investment properties before making the plunge to becoming a full-time trader. She shared her journey and her trading tips with Jack and Dan on this week’s Limit Up episode! Tune in.
Latoya Smith worked in finance for a time before pursuing her passion for trading. She is now the co-founder of The Profit Room, a stock market and trading educational company. On this week’s edition of the Limit Up! Podcast, Jack and Dan talked to Latoya about her road to becoming a day trader.
One interesting thing about Latoya is that she learned about the stock market by forming an investment club with friends. She talked about this formative experience, how investment property helped her create wealth, and why she loves trade gaps. Take a listen to the episode for more on Latoya’s journey.
