Al grew up on the East Coast. He didn’t know he was poor until he was 4 years old. He saw people with fancy cars and boats. He never got what he asked for for Christmas. He could never buy the toys he saw shopping. He decided he didn’t like being poor. So his goal from a very young age was to be rich.

He decided the best way to get rich was to become a businessman. But in his upbringing, you do what your parents tell you to do—and his mom told him to become an eye surgeon. From that point on, he thought that’s what he had to become. So he became a good student and went to a great medical school and became an eye surgeon.

The entire time he was at the University of Chicago studying ophthalmology, he dreamed of working at the Chicago Mercantile exchange. He felt so strongly that that’s what he needed to be doing with his life. But he found himself as an eye surgeon. What happened next? Al’s journey wasn’t easy. He shares some of the struggles he had to overcome and how he’s found success as a swing-trader AND a scalper. Don’t miss it!
