When I was in my early twenties, I was sent to prison for 28 years for a non-violent crime. While in prison I got a letter in the mail saying that I was the beneficiary of a old annuity my mother had before she died. So I thought about how can I invest it so I can have money when I get out. I had no clue how to do that. About a month later I saw something in a magazine saying the best performing Mutual Funds. I had no clue what that was. To make a long story short, from prison I started buying Mutual Funds, trading Stocks, and selling Option Contracts. The rest is history. I spent the last 3 years of my sentence in this cell (ADX Florence, Colorado).
