"I'm Not Going Back..." Ft. Cam
In this inspiring episode of The China Shop, host Kyle is joined by Bear Goes Long, Mike (Purdue), and special guest Cam, a Navy veteran turned eight-figure trader and investor. Cam shares his remarkable story: growing up dirt-poor on a North Carolina tobacco farm, escaping through military service as a corpsman and Naval Academy grad, and rejecting post-Navy contracting traps. Post-grad school in business analytics and economics, Cam dove into trading in 2016, starting with iron condors, evolving to a rules-based system emphasizing risk management, probabilities, and a four-layer plan blending stocks, options, and real estate. He details his obsession with hedging (gold, treasuries, VIX triggers), a simple stock screener for quality undervalued momentum plays (e.g., AMD shorts, ASML longs), and diverse businesses like billboards, laundries, and rentals. With transparency on wins (300% annual returns post-COVID resets) and losses ($190K on ADBE), Cam emphasizes escaping the financial system, helping vets through causes and his trading room, and avoiding greed. A must-listen for traders, vets, and aspiring entrepreneurs on building wealth with discipline.
