and work for 10 years you can retire at 30-35 with millions. The big names are known before they're big names. In the 1990s you bought Microsoft, Apple, Intel but had to dodge the tech crash 2001. In 2009 Amazon. Now you bet on AI. Somebody's going to make a lot of money. And it can be household names, too. Lilly was $60-90 6 years ago. Now past $700. META $88 in 2022, now $500. Wall Street doesn't want you to know.
