## Resource

Some rain! Finally things will cool down. Up and out to the gym I go! The cleaning lady… didn’t really clean. Barbell rows, shoulder press and then 100 pull ups (no push ups or squats). 7km run done in two parts. Update on the Beijing ID card sale: you have to choose whether to get it in store (more expensive) or buy it online. Once you choose, you can’t change it. And not applicable to foreigners. Steve, you mentioned you’d talk about your biggest mistakes in trading, what were they? AEM.to = sold too soon. PD.to = sold covered calls and they got exercised in January 2021… then went on a multiple year run. And have you ever considered starting a stock market newsletter? Yes. I have. I didn’t think I’d like it. And what about all the ideas I’ve had? Donate to the show!
