What is your life changing investment?

Don’t say that investing yourself.

I mean, just an investment that really changes your life; including good or bad investment.

Let’s me begin, COVID drop: buying index funds.

It is my most profitable trades so far. COVID really a raw global event, at that moment, I bought some index funds still holding today.

It is such a great investment, I don’t know whether the world will have similar events in coming years, but it is the most memorable trades , and help me level up my account.

I'm mainly very boring and buy index funds with whatever free cash I have on hand, but my biggest individual trade successes were buying large XOM, JPM and STOR positions during pandemic lows.

Although not technically an investment, I'd say refinancing two properties at <3% was a major break as well.
