“Conceptual digital image symbolizing a 20-year public wealth-building journey, inspired by Warren Buffett’s early years, representing long-term investing, discipline, and financial independence.”
I’m not waiting 20 years to start sharing. I’m sharing for 20 years, while I build it. Start your journey today.

Why I Am Documenting My 20 Year Wealth Journey in Public Even If It Looks Crazy Today


Warren Buffett did not start out as a legend.


He was not on CNBC

He was not giving keynotes

He was not trending on social media


In Year 10 of his investing career, Buffett was quietly buying undervalued companies, managing a few small partnerships in Omaha, and writing investor letters almost no one read.


That is what greatness looked like back then. Silent. Slow. Private.


But I am not from that era

And I am not building that way


So no, I am not Warren Buffett

But I have one thing in common with him: conviction


The difference?


He built in silence

I am building in public


Loudly. Relentlessly. From day one



Buffett Built Quietly in Year 10


In the early 1960s, Warren Buffett had already spent a decade sharpening his investment philosophy.


He was managing money through the Buffett Partnership, buying what he called cigar butt stocks, cheap companies with one last puff of value. He had begun realizing the compounding power of owning entire businesses.


But no one outside a tight circle of investors cared.


He was not famous

He was not quoted

He was not being reposted


He was not chasing attention. He was stacking shares.


That was Buffett’s Lane. Invisible. Intentional. Unbothered.



I Am Playing the Same Game in a Different Arena


I am not in Omaha. I am not managing partnerships.


I am a bus driver, builder, and long-term investor documenting a modern wealth play. And I am doing it in full public view.


Here is my blueprint


• I invest 50 dollars every weekday into Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy

• I do it publicly

• I document every single week for 20 years

• I post every update, screenshot, and receipt of discipline whether people are watching or not


This is not a content strategy


This is how I build wealth



What I Am Doing in Years One and Two as I Head Toward Year 10


I started in April 2025 with one clear goal:

To invest every single day, like Bitcoin trades nonstop


Here is the structure


• 50 dollars per weekday, automated through Robinhood on all 252 market days

• 100 dollars every Monday, a manual buys to cover the two weekend days

• 50 dollars on every holiday, to fill the gap on market closed days


That is 18,250 dollars per year

Roughly 365 receipts of behavior

Not for likes. Not for claps. For legacy


Most daily investing strategies stop at market hours

Mine does not


Bitcoin trades 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. So does my discipline


I document the entire journey every Saturday at BakoInvest.com

Every share. Every update. Every screenshot


This is not theory

This is proof of work



Why Strategy Is My Anchor


This is not a random stock


Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, is the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in the world


• More than half-million Bitcoin and counting

• A mission driven founder with a century long mindset

• A company that does not just believe in Bitcoin, it is structurally tied to it


I am not guessing

I am not gambling

I am placing a multi decade bet on


• Bitcoin adoption

• Strategic leverage

• Behavioral edge

• Asymmetric upside


Every 50 dollar buy I place is one step deeper into that conviction



What Buffett and I Have in Common


Most people will never confuse me with Warren Buffett, and they should not


But we share four traits that matter more than status or capital



Conviction Over Consensus


Buffett did not follow crowds. He followed logic.


He looked wrong for years and became the richest man in the world.


I am buying Strategy while most people sit in index funds and chase shiny trends.


Conviction means you act early and stay long



Decades Over Days


Buffett thought in 10-year increments. Not 10-minute charts.


So do I.


Every day for 20 years. No panic selling. No ego when it is red



Simplicity Over Complexity


Buffett’s approach bored Wall Street. That is why it worked.


He was not chasing complexity. He was compounding clarity.


I am doing the same. One stock. One plan. Infinite reps



Ignoring the Noise


Buffett never chased headlines


I do not care if Strategy is down 40 percent or up 80 percent


If it is a weekday, I buy

If it is a holiday, I buy

If it is the weekend, I already bought


That is the edge. Showing up when others flinch



What Makes Me Different by Design


I am not copying Buffett

I am building something he never had to face, because his world didn't include the digital arena



I Am Building in Public from Day One


Buffett became famous after decades


I am inviting people into the process while it is still raw


You are not watching a product. You are watching a process



I Am Embracing Volatility


Buffett loved predictable businesses. That worked in his time


I believe volatility is the tax you pay for upside


Strategy gives me exposure to Bitcoin’s range with structure and leverage


I am not smoothing the ride. I am aiming for the destination



I Am Turning Documentation into Discipline


Buffett compounded capital


I am compounding capital and content


Every post is a brick. Every update is a timestamp


This is not performance

This is identity



Why I Do Not Wait to Be Seen


Most people share after they win


Not me


I am publishing the process while it is still uncertain


Because if I only show up when I am winning, I am not really building


Visibility is part of the commitment



Where Year 10 Could Lead


If I stay the course, by Year 10 I will likely have


• Over 1000 shares of Strategy

• More than 260000 dollars invested

• A full digital paper trail of behavior

• A platform that proves discipline scales wealth


Not because I am perfect

Because I am consistent



Want to See It Play Out in Real Time

Final Word


Buffett’s Year 10 was quiet

Mine will not be


Not because I am louder

Because the world is


People need to see what long term conviction looks like

They need to believe discipline still works


So no, I am not Warren Buffett


But I have the one thing that made him unstoppable


Conviction
