Why I Love Death And Taxes lol

Custom HTML/CSS/JAVASCRIPT

Financial freedom isn’t just about making more money. It’s about reclaiming the time that money once controlled.

Because we can always earn more...

But what we can’t do is buy back the years we wasted chasing the wrong things.

A while back, I visited my grandmother in the hospital.

She was in her 90s. Sharp as ever, but tired.

We both knew it was getting close.

At one point, I asked her if she was afraid.

She smiled, shook her head, and said something I’ll never forget:

“Death is the easy part.

Regret is what keeps me up at night.”

That one sentence hit harder than anything the doctors could have said.

Because deep down, I knew I wasn’t really living either.

I was existing.

Busy. Productive. Responsible.

But not alive.

Sigmund Freud once said,

“The aim of all life is death.”

Maybe not something you want printed on a coffee mug –

But true nonetheless.

We all end up in the same place eventually.

And on the way there, we’re taxed for the privilege of even trying.

I used to dread both.

Death made me anxious.

Taxes made me feel poor.

But now?

I see them as reminders.

Death reminds me to live with urgency.

To use my time wisely.

To spend my hours doing things that matter…

Not just clocking in, paying bills, and waiting for retirement.

Taxes remind me how far I’ve come.

That I’m building something real.

That financial freedom doesn’t need a 40-hour work week.

That even after I’m gone I’ll leave behind a legacy for my children.

You see, for me this was never about beating the system.

It was about escaping it –

So I could not only enjoy my life,

but create something meaningful along the way as well…

For myself, for my family,

and for the children my children have after I’m gone.

Turns out, you don't need to have some sort of “gift” or natural inclination towards numbers to be highly profitable in trading.

I'm living proof of that.

In fact, by the time I finally found trading, I was really just looking for something to get me out of my dead end job – and the continual cycle of burnout I was trapped in.

I’d already tried a parade of “opportunities” –

each one promising freedom, flexibility, and “unlimited income potential” (yeah right, lol)…

only to deliver stress, confusion, and the sinking feeling that I was right back where I started.

You know the drill:

Big promises.

Confusing setups buried in 12 module courses.

And then…radio silence when you ask for real help.

So when I stumbled into a trading community, I wasn’t looking for motivation.

I was looking for something that actually worked.

I needed proof of concept. Preferably with commas.

That’s when James Leone entered the picture.

A trader with a 7-figure annual track record…and a very low tolerance for B.S.

That’s when I knew this was real.

What started as “just another Zoom call” turned out to be the real thing - built on real trades, verifiable broker statements, and the type of financial freedom most people only dream about.

He'd even purchased the accounting firm he used to work at after he quit just to “mess with his former managers”.

James had built something real.

And to his credit, he wasn’t just good at trading - he was annoyingly good at teaching it, too.

So we took his process and turned it into something that works for actual human beings with real schedules…who don’t have hours to waste each day figuring things out on their own.

And the coolest part?

You don’t just get the strategy.

You get to trade with James.

Live.

On Zoom.

And if you miss any of his weekly sessions?

We’ve got other pros (trained by James himself) running live sessions all week long,

so no matter your schedule, you’ll always have someone to follow and learn from.

Last week alone our members brought in {{ custom_values.weekly_pip_count }} pips.

And this year to date?

{{ custom_values.ytd_pip_count }} pips.

More than enough for anyone to quit their job and make a full time income in an hour or two a day, if they choose to.

Now, if you’re wondering what this costs –

It’s only $200 to $300 a month – less than your daily Iced Caramel Macchiato fix…(or the third takeout order this week you justified with “it’s been a long day.”)

Except we’re not talking about overpriced coffee here…

We’re talking about financial freedom, time that’s your own again, and the chance to not spend the rest of your life in a dead end job leading nowhere.

To be perfectly transparent, this really isn’t for everyone…

This is NOT for you if:

❌ You think you’re already the best trader out there

❌ You aren’t fully Committed to mastering trading

❌ $200 - $300 per month is a big stretch for your finances.

We obviously want to HELP your financial situation, not make it worse lol.

If now is not the right time, that’s ok, we’ll be here for when things improve.

This IS for you if:

✔ You’re an open book and ready to learn

✔ You are FULLY committed to becoming a master trader

✔ You are ready and willing to start your journey as an investor.

Here’s just a small sample of what’s inside:

The 6-Figure Withdraw Plan

A step-by-step approach to building consistent profits with a clear roadmap to 6 figures in your first year – designed for people who need results quickly, without wasting time trying to figure everything out on their own.

Daily Live Trading Sessions

Join our pro traders in real time as they walk through their setups, entries, and decision-making processes - so you can see exactly how each strategy plays out in live market conditions.

➡ Breakout Rooms

Smaller group settings designed for more direct interaction - ask questions, work through challenges, and get guidance in a more personal environment.

Personal Trading Reviews

You’ll get real feedback on your trades from experienced traders who help you improve – not generic advice, but personalized insight you can apply right away.

Live Trading Events

Focused sessions that dive deep into key trading topics - like risk management, market structure, or indicator “stacking” - so you can sharpen your edge one layer at a time.

Private Chat Groups

Stay connected between sessions with a community of traders who are serious, supportive, and actively working toward the same goals you are.

And much, much more.

We’ve made getting started simple with something we call:

The 3 Golden Tickets

We offer 3 clear, practical ways to plug into our system, based on where you are and what kind of support you need most.

Each path gives you access to the full system.

You just pick the one that fits your goals, your experience level, and your budget.

We rolled this out recently and already had two people grab their spot on the first day.

They’re inside. They’re trading. They’re making progress.

And now, we’re opening a few more spots.

But just to be transparent – there’s a cap on how many people we can take per ticket.

Because real support requires real capacity.

Our calendar for this week is already booked solid and you won’t see anything open until Saturday.

In the meantime, we want to give you our Due-Diligence Checklist.

This has a bunch of resources for you to check us out and see if we’d be a good fit for you before you can book a time on Wednesday.

Part of the checklist includes our Trading Blueprint –

Which covers all of the systems we’ve built out over the years and how they have made the biggest impact for our traders.

You’ll also see our PIP counter so you can see for yourself how effective and efficient our trading really is.

Fill out the form below and we’ll send it over to you.

Then, on Saturday book a time with us (there’s a calendar in the Due-Diligence Checklist as well) for next week.

I’ll see you on the inside next week!
