Greg Vojtanek grew up outside of Chicago to a middle class family. The extent of his stock market education was a 45 minute lesson in high school. Greg majored in Theater at Lewis University outside of Chicago, IL. Afterwards he moved to Los Angeles to pursue in career in acting, until he moved to NYC for love. While in New York, he first began investing in real estate. He managed a small property in PA. Since he was already interested in investing and residual income, when his sister-in-law, Julie, invited him to the Wealthy Artist program (now The Wealthy Investor Program), it seemed like a natural fit. The system clicked for Greg. He really liked that it was just simple numbers on a page; there was no brick and mortar and certainly no leaky faucets to fix. He started getting really good at covered calls and discreetly started to tell people about it. Slowly he started convincing his family to let him show them his skills. He first started an account for his 13 year-old nephew and later took on his Mom’s account. 

When Greg’s brother-in-law had a big break in Hollywood, he knew he was about to come into a lot of money that he didn’t know what to do with. Since Greg was the only guy who knew that could handle money, he asked Greg to move out to LA and work for him. So Greg moved back out to Hollywood and took over his finances by opening a trading account for him. 

Now, between managing his own trading account and his job managing others, he is financially independent. He exemplifies this with a recent experience; “I thought I had x amount of dollars in my personal account. I logged on yesterday and it was a lot more than what I thought I had. I don’t really worry about my account value because I know it’s fine. It climbed without me even knowing it.” This has allowed Greg to get back to his creative roots. He is now a writer on a new show premiering next year.

When you know you have money coming in every month from the stock market it, Greg says it is “…one less thing to worry about, and for most people that’s 50% of their worries in their life. If you can eliminate that or at least bring that down to like 10%, life becomes a lot easier.” One of the reasons Greg is still trading and taking class is because he loves helping other people, and he love’s putting other people’s minds at ease. 

If you aren’t sure if you’ll find success in the stock market, Greg says, “I have met so many walks of life in six years of working with [Tyrone] of people all over the place who figure it out. It may take some people a couple more classes than others. It doesn’t matter, that’s fine. Wherever you are in your life is where you are, that’s fine. And however long it takes you to figure out the numbers or what’s going on, that’s fine. If it takes you a couple minutes, great. If it takes you a couple weeks, great. But you are on your own pace and it is really not difficult.”

Anytime you put money in the stock market, you are putting it at risk. Tyrone Jackson, The Wealthy Investor, explains that we do this because we can get a higher rater return on our money than if we were to just leave our money in a savings account at 1%. Some stocks are riskier than others to own because their company’s don’t have a great track record of earnings.

Tyrone's student Crystal Williams joins the show today. She is not only a stock market trader, but also works in the insurance business, so she truly understands how to manage risk. 

Crystal grew up in the Palm Springs area and graduated from The University of Redlands. In 2002 she got a job as an admin assistant for a company in the insurance risk business. She worked closely with her boss who taught her how to underwrite. Eventually, she was able to grow within the company and purchase the prescription drug block of the business.

After relocating to Long Beach, she found Tyrone Jackson's class through MeetUp.com. Crystal had read some literature about the stock market and was already interested. When she found Tyrone’s program, the covered call strategy alone opened her eyes.

Crystal's first big ah-ha moment was about a year ago, when she really started to understand the call spreads. It kept her really involved in all the trades she had planned out. She was consistent and believed in the stock that she was trading. Crystal believes what is important is having a strategy and having a plan. Know the stocks you are trading in and stick with them. There’s so many shiny objects that get thrown at us, it is easy to fall of your discipline, but that’s not how you’ll make money.

If you are constantly trading, you are not really building wealth. Building positions in stocks has been the most profitable for Crystal. She can really look back over the year and see the growth. As Tyrone explains, you do have to pay taxes on trades but not when you are holding a stock because you are simply asset building.

Having not been an expert in math, Crystal feels that just being involved in numbers has helped her. To succeed in the stock market, it’s about spending the time, evaluating the numbers, tying it all together and understanding the story. Crystal thinks knowing excel also helps because you can create some pretty neat stock spreadsheets to help you plan.

Crystal likes DOW stocks that are less risk for covered calls and building positions, but she does like to allocate a small portion to growth stocks that have the potential to grow faster than the DOW stocks. She allocates 10% or less of her portfolio to these riskier stock to give her a little excitement.

Finally, Crystal says there's nothing to be afraid of, especially when you are trading or investing in DOW stocks. The stock market may have a down day, but seeing her stock drop in the news doesn't bother her anymore.

Tyrone Jackson feels that podcasting is a wonderful way of getting his message out to the world. This is a form of service - of helping the general public.

He only asks that if he helps you, that you in turn, help others. When you start making large sums of money you may find that you can help others; your church, your community, or a charity that you like.

Normally Tyrone is interviewing other people, so he doesn't often tell his story. However, he recently appeared as a guest on radio personality Debra Mark's show. She interviewed Tyrone on how he got started and why his approach to teaching the stock market works.

Tyrone Jackson was raised in Staten Island by a single mother in federally subsidized housing. He remembers there never being any money unless it was time for the income tax return. Tyrone took on his mother's money beliefs that life was going to be hard, making money would be a struggle, and that the only way to make more money was to get a job that paid overtime. But Tyrone had a barrel full of dreams and a curiosity about money and how people got wealthy. There was an inner conflict inside him.

Neighbors and people around Tyrone were moving forward with their lives, moving out of the apartments and into houses. He was curious how that happened. It wasn't until years later that Tyrone realized how powerful your thoughts are. Today he calls that your "millionaire mindset." No matter how much money you earn right now, if you can learn how to think and prioritize like a really rich person, you can become a really rich person.

Tyrone worked on television for years, and in television you are always wondering when your next gig will be. He learned he needed to put some of his paychecks away somewhere so he would always be okay between gigs. Later he learned the best place to put his money was the stock market. He learned he could open a brokerage account for only $500 and if he kept putting money in every month, then that money would grow. First he would add $50 per week, then $100 per week, then $1000 per month, and that's how he started to build his account.

Tyrone never thought of himself as a "struggling" actor. He was just on his way to the next gig and setting goals for the next phase of his life. As Debra Mark points out, he has always been a "glass half full" type of guy.

Years later, Tyrone teaches his stock market approach to people across the country. The Wealthy Investor approach is quite simple. In fact that is Tyrone's strength as a teacher - putting complex ideas about the the stock market into simple terms.

People are attracted to The Wealthy Investor because you can make lot of money, it's simple, and there's one core trade that gets people hooked. That trade is covered call writing: if you have 100 shares of a stock priced at $39, you can sell an option to someone else to buy those shares away from you when the stock hits $40. You make money for selling that right to buy, or option. For 100 shares, you would take in $100 guaranteed profit.

People are afraid because we have been conditioned to think that money is a service, that we should be paying someone else to take care of it for us. We believe that the people who handle money are much smarter than we are, but in reality they are not, they are simply doing their jobs. You can save money on the service fees if you learn how to handle your money yourself.

It is our belief about money, not our education, that determines how much money you make in this life. Tyrone teaches positive beliefs through story telling. However, he doesn't want to have to convince people. The message falls on the people who were meant to hear it.

Tyrone's advice for people who are ready to make changes is to stop hanging out with broke people. Birds of a feather stick together. We have a tendency to huddle together with people who are like us in our thinking and that is going to affect your money.

His other piece of advice is this: If all your dreams were to come true, write down what kind of house you would have, what kind of car you would buy, where you would like to live, what your perfect day looks like etc. We call this visualization. Your brain starts to focus on the things that are written down and the things you think about the most.

You are involved in the active process of creating your life every single day whether you realize it or not. You have appointments, things you focus on, to-do lists, and if wealth and financial freedom are not on that list, you will start to focus on the reality that you see around you every day as opposed to the reality that you want.

So focus on the reality you want, upgrade your friends, and remember to help others along the way.

Tyrone Jackson explains that all you need to finance your entire lifestyle is a vision. One of the biggest benefits to having money and having wealth is freedom, the freedom to choose what your life would look like.

Tyrone interviews his student, actress Valencia Yearwood, who has created a successful and artistic lifestyle for herself. Valencia grew up in Queens, NY. When she was 14 she decided she wanted to be a gynecologist. Being at a specialized high school she was able to double major in medicine and performing arts. After graduating college with a degree in biology, she decided that medicine was not her calling and followed her dance dreams instead. Valencia made it into the Dance Theater Company and traveled all over the world dancing before she hung up her pointe shoes. Afterwards she transitioned into acting and was cast in the Lion King on Broadway. Following an injury that took her off Broadway, Valencia started doing television commercials. You’ve seen her on commercials for companies like Liberty Car Insurance, Fed Ex, Capital One, McDonald’s and more.

As a dancer, Valencia knew that her career couldn’t last forever so she would have to find another way to have residual income. She came from a middle class family and before meeting Tyrone she did not have a financial education. The most amazing thing about shifting her mindset was seeing that there were possibilities for getting more out of life. Once she started to shift her mindset it didn’t only affect her money- she started to attract abundance in all areas of her life.

What Valencia likes about the stock market is that she doesn’t have to depend on anyone else to increase her income. She can do it on her own time from her own home. Her favorite trade is writing covered calls because it’s guaranteed, but her second favorite is volatility trading because its not a long term commitment. Last year she had minimal time to trade so she just focused on one leap trade, which ended up doubling her account. That trade taught her the power of focus. Now she would like to get better at trading options and specifically trading front month calls against options.

Valencia’s advice to beginners is “You don't need a lot of money in order to make money. You need a lot of focus, you need to be open, and you need to partner with someone who can give you the financial education that you need, but that’s really all you need. Stay open and shift your mindset.”

Tyrone Jackson, the Wealthy Investor, teaches his students how to change their financial situation by investing and trading in the stock market. However he also teaches that before you even buy your first stock, you must change your inner game - the game behind the game. 

Tyrone himself had mental blocks when he was younger. Being raised by a single mother, it had been drilled into his brain that he must work overtime if he ever wanted to put money away. This mindset affected his deep seeded feelings towards money. This created a paradox as he grew older; his feelings told him that he should be small, while his brain told him that he should do great things in the world. It took him a while to learn to let go of someone else’s desires of what was meant for him in life. 

Years later, after accomplishing many great things, Tyrone had the chance to sit down in Texas while at a seminar event with Dana Garrison. Dana is really good at helping people become acquainted with their inner blocks so they can have the life that they deserve financially. 

Dana Garrison started out as a therapist and in that time period she learned that 10% of what shows up in our life comes from our conscious mind and conscious thought while 90% of what shows up comes from our unconscious thoughts, habits, and patterns. She set out to study how to change our unconscious thoughts and habits and she came up with something called family entanglement work.

Family entanglement work helps people to become aware of generational patterns that we inherit from our families surrounding money and success. Problems and stresses our descendants may have had with money can literally become a part of our DNA. Once aware of these issues and “entanglements” the next step is to address them in some way, shape or form. 

For example, many people have a lack of unconscious permission for abundance. Once we address that lack, and start to give ourselves permission, we can be amazed at what we attract. 

Dana Garrison realized at 15 that she wanted to create as much positive change as possible with her life and she realized one of the ways to do that was to work with people who are going to help other people.  If she can free other people to be the post powerful, empowered selves, so they can live the life they want to live and do what they came here to do then she knows that she is making exponential change on the planet.

Tyrone Jackson's student Patricia Lo Piccolo joins him to talk about how she changed her mindset about what was possible and found a way to help her family. 

Patricia had a middle class upbringing in Dallas, Texas. Her mother was a nurse and her father was a landscape architect. They always had what they needed but they lived paycheck to paycheck. As an adult, she moved to NYC and established a life for herself where similarly, she was comfortable but always needed that next paycheck. She didn't realize that she should start thinking about building wealth. 

It wasn't until Tyrone told her about the stock market that she started to shift her thinking. Once she found out it was possible to create monthly income it was just a matter of educating herself. Patricia has now been trading and investing in the stock market for about three to four years. 

Once her mindset shifted, Patricia realized that a property that had been in her family for years was an asset. Because of repairs, that property had felt like a burden for a long time. Patricia was able to take a loan on the equity of the property and open a brokerage account for her family. 

However, it took Patricia about nine months to get enough of her family to open their minds to this possibility. She was able to bring some of them to Tyrone's class, and once they actually heard covered call writing explained, they felt more comfortable with the idea.

Now the family account is starting to pay back the equity loan, it makes money every month, and pays dividends to her parents. The value of the property now produces money for repairs. 

If you learn the Wealthy Investor approach to trading and investing, you can help yourself and your family too. Go to TheWealthyInvestor.net to learn more!

You need to change your mindset in order to change your life. Andre Blake is the perfect example of someone who made a shift in his mindset that allowed him to be successful creatively and financially. You might recognize Andre from projects such as Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia, The Blacklist, or as the voice of BET, to name a few.

Andre was raised in Long Island by a Venezuelan mother and a West Indian father. His parents were hard-working and successful people and they primed, probed, and even scared Andre into success. However it was also instilled in him that money and wealth could only come from working hard and receiving a paycheck. After studying with Tyrone and making his first trade, Andre realized he could make money without working for it all day. With this, he realized that he was going to be rich. 

Andre started his brokerage account with only $2,000. He has now been trading successfully in the market for seven years. The idea that the trades will never run out gives him a level of comfort and reassurance he can’t put into words. Listen to this podcast to find out what his favorite trades are and how he likes to spend his earnings. 

Andre could not have changed his mindset or his life in this way without a financial education. Join WItradeschool.com to follow in Andre’s footsteps and start making money now.
