This week, I came across one of the most brilliant posts I’ve seen in a while – Jason Marquez, who says he’s “just a truck driver who likes to listen to Michael Saylor on YouTube,” revealed that Listening to them has been massively beneficial. Advice from the Executive Chairman of MicroStrategy.
According to Marquez, he invested big in Saylor’s bold Bitcoin bet, and now owns $866,000 worth of $MSTR stock, at an average cost of $46 per share – a profit of more than $750,000.

After seeing the collapse of Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX in 2022, Marquez They say He was scared of the market and “went all in on Sailor” because he felt it was the safest bet. This was not the first time for Marquez that he ran out of money in crypto, and it has happened Said He was burnt to death over a hack in 2018. After that, he did not feel safe holding any crypto, including Bitcoin.
This is the reality for many people trying to get ahead in the Wild West industry. Losing money in hacks and exchange collapses is no fun, and it can easily turn people away from wanting to buy and hold Bitcoin. I can totally understand why Marquez would invest in a stock that is accumulating massive amounts of Bitcoin after seeing these hacks.
Fortunately, after becoming more comfortable in this position, Marquez They say They feel they have enough MSTR and their next step is to do DCA in Bitcoin. I applaud them because it’s a smart move because actually owning the keys to your Bitcoin in cold storage is the best thing in the end, as all fiat trends towards $0 versus Bitcoin over time.
Regardless, at this point, Marquez is a soon-to-be millionaire from just this one stock trade, and is financially well prepared because of it. He worked to learn about the potential of Bitcoin and MicroStrategy’s BTC accumulation plan, executed a plan of action, invested his hard-earned money in stocks and made big profits.

This is a legendary bear market story to be told for years to come. This is reminiscent of the story when the American HODL sold his car to buy more Bitcoin, then rode around on a moped until Bitcoin went higher.
As for me, I refused to get my car fixed. I would take it on and off with a screw driver, so I could pile up the cheap Bitcoins and recover the vehicle later at a higher Bitcoin price. Marquez’s story is another amazing example of an everyday person taking advantage of the opportunity in Bitcoin and turning it into massive life upgrades. His business earned him more money in a year than truck driving. Think about that.
Salute to you sir, well done. And good luck to you with your Bitcoin deposits now!
