During the golden era of Taiwan’s stock market, many investors achieved financial freedom. However, a 40-year-old man found success after enduring 20 years of losses in the investment market, sparking lively discussions among netizens. He shared his story on PTT, mentioning an initial investment of 2.478 million NTD in early 2021, which had grown to a total value of 3.678 million NTD by the end of last year, representing a profit rate of 48.44%.

The man emphasized that while his 2021 performance was impressive, he had previously lost hundreds of thousands in futures and options trading, effectively wiping out two decades’ worth of earnings. He explained that before investing, he thoroughly understands the industry and the company's products, using financial news sources to identify promising stocks.

He also advised fellow investors against borrowing money for leverage, as recovering from debt is significantly more challenging than bouncing back from youthful failures. Many internet users resonated with his story, recognizing the importance of a cautious investment strategy.
