Friend at work said we should look at penny stocks to make some extra cash.  I had thought about it before, but never took the step to get into it.  I watch a few of @timothysykes videos and got excited about the idea of being able to stay at home and make money.  I didn't expect it to be easy or become rich overnight. Now my Dad, wife, and my kids want to learn.  Hoping to make this the new family biz. 

So far I'm down 11.5% on my account, still in the 90% of traders that lose money.  I'm ok with that as its the cost of learning, without the lessons it would have been a lot more and I would be out.  I study 3 or 4 hours a day with a ton more to learn.

Best part of the whole thing is that, once I get comfortable, I'll be able to show my kids how to do this so they can live life how ever they want.
