Brad bought his first stock in high school and has been hooked ever since. After graduating early from college, success in the market enabled him to pay off his student loans and buy his first house. And although he has experience in everything from momentum investing to options, one of his proudest investing accomplishments has been buying and holding on to Apple since 2014.
Brad believes that successful investing doesn't have to be complicated and that anyone can achieve financial independence regardless of background.

His writing has been featured in outlets like Yahoo Finance, Nasdaq.com, and MSN Money, among others.
An experienced powerlifter, Brad spends his time renovating and working on his property in Texas and tending to cattle when not following the market.
