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

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

Total Shares: 1.384556
Average Cost: $361.13

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.

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

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!
