Anthony Speciale Jr. Born and raised into a blue collar family in the suburbs of Northern New Jersey, I have in recent years put down the wrenches I’ve been turning for the better part of my entire life and have become a professional energy trader. My mother was a nurse practitioner and my father was an auto mechanic. I had literally watched both of my parents work endless hours with their hands throughout their entire lives and after loosing my mother at a young age to cancer, I had decided I wanted a different future than the path I was currently on. At a young age I was a struggling student who didn’t excel very well academically and college wasn’t really in the cards for me, but I was always a disciplined worker. When I had put my mind to something, there was nothing that was going to stop me from reaching and exceeding my goals I had set for myself. So, as life had evolved, so did my desire for freedom. It was never much about the money for me, but it was about the success and the freedom that accompanied that success. Over a decade ago, I decided to specialize in just one sector of the market. I knew that I only needed to be proficient at just one area of the market to achieve the goal I had set forth. Trade passively while producing massively. Well, that’s exactly what I did. After several years of failed attempts, endless education, trial and error - I had finally yielded myself the success and freedom I was desiring. After making myself over $1,000,000.00 trading this very method, it was time to share my success with those who also desire the freedom I did. After a lot of work, time, effort and sacrifice - Big Energy Profits went from merely a concept into a very real reality.

Light At The End Of The Tunnel

You likely lost money again after the broader markets posted negative returns yesterday. For many, that was another terrible day to have money in the markets.

Sad Truth About The Middle-Class

You’re technically in the middle-class if you earn between $47,189 to $141,568. For years, you could probably get by with a decent middle-class income, but now, inflation, debt, and interest rate hikes have unlocked a new level of financial discomfort. Soon, the middle class won’t exist anymore. And when that sad day comes, only few…

Moral Of The CPI Story

As expected, stocks tumbled following the release of the September CPI report. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) — a measure of prices consumers pay for goods and services — increased by 0.4% in September and rose by 3.7% year-over-year.

Your Income Level & Your Dreams

As I said in yesterday’s piece (money lesson from the mortgage crisis), the new cost of home ownership equates to paying over 2x your purchase price, which means rising costs could easily dwarf your wages unless you have a secondary income stream. Today, I want to discuss another factor that could be widening the gap…
