Netting off all debt and using today's exchange rates, Q2 in 2009. I was 33 at the time. At historic rates, it was in Q2 2008.

For comparison, I was sitting at around zero to negative net wealth as late as 28.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, post threads about how to do it on WSO.

Well it all started when I found $0.38 on the street and started trading, within 6 days I turned that into $13.45, started my own hedgefund and within about 6 months had my first million... Not via the HF because that folded, but I had a really rich uncle that died and left some cash.
