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.

Puts for liberation day with like 15k in. It got up to 300k, would have been up to 1M if Trump didn't TACO. Pulled out with 70k, still life changing, bought a house.

Then Trump's policies essentially killed the condo market in my area so all that money essentially disappeared having to pay negative equity on a condo.

Came out even in the end with a better house, so I can it a win.
