I'm moving to Chicago next week. I'm now out for a Maryland meetup...

Hey, I'm moving back to Chicago at the end of the month. I'm in for a weekend meetup. Erich K.

Hey all, I'm in Columbia, MD. Seeing if any of you are in the area and would like to have a meetup. Cheers! Erich K.

Hey all! My name is Erich K. I am 35 and originally from Chicago but I have lived all over the east coast the past few years for work (NJ shore, Jersey City/NYC, Boston, Atlanta). I currently reside in Maryland. I graduated college in 2006 with two bachelor of science degrees in Architectural Engineering and Construction Management. I work full-time as a Project Manager for a design-build firm building industrial facilities for food and beverage companies. I handle things like estimating, contract negotiations, design reviews and project budgets. I am thankful that it offers a schedule that is flexible and allows me time to trade the open (first 30-60 minutes) most of the time. I started day trading in late 2017 while I was between projects but have done investing for myself the past 8 years or so. I graduated with significant debt (student loans) but was able to pay them off by traveling for work. Taking personal responsibility for my finances was my greatest life lesson. To say that it piqued my interest in how the world of finance works would be an understatement. I love the world of finance and studying how to trade. I found Andrew after searching for books on trading. I read his book over a weekend and then started watching his YouTube recaps. About a week later I had to join the chatroom. He is also an engineer and I was really able to relate and understand his logical presentation of how to trade. Joining the chatroom has been very important to my own journey in becoming a trader. He is calm, cool and collected. Like all traders, I took big losses when I first started due to impatience and poor risk management. The chatroom offers great support from all the other traders and it is FUN! Everyone is very laid back, always cracking jokes to keep things light. Of course, everyone is very focused and concentrated on helping each other out and becoming better traders. I used to look forward to weekends all week long. Now I can't wait for weekday mornings to start!
