Here It’s only Week 2 of my 20-year Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) challenge—and I already own more than one full share.

Visual Share Progress — Week 2


“Bar chart showing Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) share accumulation from Week 1 to Week 2 of a 20-year $50/day investing challenge on BakoInvest — growing from 0.73 to 1.38 shares.”
From 0.73 to 1.38 shares. This isn’t about price. It’s about stacking Strategy ownership.

If you can stay consistent, you don’t need to go big—you just need to keep going.



This Week’s Numbers (April 28–May 2, 2025)


  • Total Shares: 1.384556

  • Average Cost: $361.13

  • Market Value: $548.28

  • Total Return: +$48.28 (+9.66%)

  • MSTR Price: $396.00

  • Bitcoin Price: $96,417.69

  • MSTR Weekly Change: +8.49%


This week, both Strategy (MSTR) and Bitcoin surged in price. Despite the green week, I stayed disciplined and didn’t add any lump sum buys—just $50 per market day, as planned.



Missed the beginning?

What I Did Differently This Week


Because prices were running hot, I didn’t add any lump sums. I stuck to the base plan:


  • $50/day

  • Every market day

  • No matter what



Why?


Because I’m not here to chase green candles.

I’m here to build something that lasts decades.



What Hit Me This Week


Even though it’s just Week 2, I caught myself thinking:


“This is going to take forever.”


That’s when I reminded myself of something I wrote in Week 1:


“You don’t build a legacy by rushing. You build it by refusing to quit.”


This journey will outlast market cycles, bull runs, and news headlines.

It’s not just an investment. It’s a lifestyle commitment.



The Bigger Vision


Publicly, I’ve said I want to reach 1,000 shares of MSTR.


But secretly?


I want 100,000 shares.


That number scares me.

It feels massive. Maybe even unrealistic.

So I don’t say it often.


But that’s the real vision.

And I know the only way to get close is to stay consistent—and to go hard when the market gives me a dip.



I plan to:


  • Buy heavier during bear markets

  • Flip options to raise more capital

  • Trust the math, not the mood


This journey is long. But it’s real.


See Where It All Started


If you’re new to this journey, here are the first chapters:




Start Your Journey with the Tools I Use




Final Thought for Week 2


“You can build your own Berkshire Hathaway—one disciplined decision at a time.”


Right now, I publicly say I want 1,000 shares of MSTR.

But secretly, I want 100,000 shares.


That number sounds crazy even to me.

But that’s the kind of goal that keeps me focused.

And it’s why I show up—every single week.


1.38 shares in. 998.6 to go. But I’m already ahead—because I started.


See you next Saturday!
