Why do you care?
Go fuck yourself
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.
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.
