613: Achieving Financial Freedom with Jason Sweeting AKA J The Trader

In today's episode of the As Told by Nomads Podcast, join me and Jason Sweeting, AKA J The Trader, as we talk about how trading allows him to reclaim the produce of his own value. Jason's glee towards today's ongoing great resignation is evident in this discussion. Through the eyes of a trader, for Jason, what the pandemic did to the labor force shouldn't only be seen as a case of mass resignation. Here, Jason simplifies the definition of a market, what trading really is, how titan investors play the game that dramatically differs them from novices, and much more.The Selling Side of the TradeGenerations ago, every black folk had owners. Black people were enslaved for years and would spend hours and hours in the fields working on raw materials, like cotton, that threaded the early days of the industrial revolution. As a result of intensive regular work, the average black man and woman became very skilled in different areas of labor. Because of labor abuse, they developed skills that no white supremacists would see as significant for any noble work. Today, it's only fitting that we see more of this. The lesson? It tells us that what you know creates value for others, too, you can use to establish value for yourself.About Jason Sweeting:Jason Sweeting is the owner of Jason Sweeting Trading Academy.
