Investor That Can See The Future

Chapter 12

It was around lunchtime when I woke up.

“Ugh!”

My head hurts like it’s going to break. I should have drank in moderation yesterday.

But where are you?

Looking at the comic books on the floor, I know it’s Taek-gyu’s house.

After sitting unconscious for a while, Taek-gyu said.

“Did you sleep well? I ordered a hamburger for you to relax.”

“·················ogue.”

Didn’t you make it because you wanted to eat it?

If I knew I needed Haejang, I should have ordered Yukgaejang or Jjamppong!

However, I was in a predicament, so I sat on the floor without saying a word and opened the package of the hamburger.

“What happened yesterday?”

“that······.”

I met my ex-girlfriend, and she foresaw something.

I stopped talking.

If I said that I foresaw that I would become the CEO of OTK Company, wouldn’t it be misunderstood that I was trying to take over my company?

I have no intention of doing that, but I’ve been fooling around to avoid misunderstandings.

“I don’t really remember.”

Taehyung was perplexed.

“Then what about our oath last night?”

“What swear?”

“Friend!”

I blocked the hamburger shards from Taek-gyu’s mouth with my hand.

“Okay, let’s eat and talk.”

I’m hungry anyway because I drank on an empty stomach.

As I unwrapped the hamburger wrapper, I asked a realistic question.

“Have you ever invested?”

“I am not, but you are.”

Taek-gyu is far from finance. Bantcoin is not for investment purposes, but only received instead of cash by disposing of online game characters and equipment.

I didn’t even know it was going to be a hit.

Well, if betting on WTI is an investment, it is an investment.

Fortunately, I have some investment experience.

As soon as I entered the school, I joined the ‘Practical Investment Club’ and studied, opened an account and made direct investment.

the problem is······.

“That’s right, it was at the level of making a joke with 1 million won.”

The bigger problem is…

“Half of it was blown away.”

After hard investment, 500,000 won flew away. In terms of return, it is a whopping ?50%.

“But, since you went to Korea University Business School, you must have learned something, right?”

“You’ve only been here for a year?”

You may think that you are learning something very grand when you say business administration, but in your freshman year, you only have three majors. Even so, it’s just basic content like licking the watermelon.

Most of the knowledge I know now is what I learned while doing club activities.

“How much do you have in your account now?”

“About 12.55 million dollars.”

“About 13.8 billion?”

“If you subtract your money, it’s only 13 billion.”

The purchase of WTI increased $630,000.

It is a huge amount that ordinary people will not be able to see in their lifetime. What can you really do with this money?

The size of the capital is very important in investing.

To make 100 million won from 10 million won, you have to make 1000% of the profit, but with 10 billion won, you only need to make 1% of the profit.

That is why Taek-gyu was able to easily earn 700 million won by investing in WTI.

Well, to say that the capital is large means that when it is blown up, it is blown away…

In any case, the situation will be better than if it was a joke.

“Then what shall we start with?”

Taek-gyu was burning brightly. I’ve seen him since middle school, but it was the first time I’d seen him so ambitious.

What the hell does a guy with 13 billion want to invest in because he regrets it?

Even if you only receive interest, it wouldn’t be a hindrance to your life.

“What do you want to do to earn money?”

Taek-gyu blinked his eyes in response to my question.

“What should I want to do?”

The world is full of things to do with money. Everyone can’t because they don’t have money.

“A nice house or a nice car.”

“This house is worth buying, and I like the car now.”

Taek-gyu eats just about anything, and picks up his clothes and puts them on. Outside of his hobbies, he has nowhere to go.

“Then why are you trying to make money?”

Taek-gyu said it was natural.

“The more money, the better.”

“·················ogue.”

It’s so true that it’s hard to argue with.

“And it’s fun.”

It’s actually fun when you earn. It’s not fun when you lose.

This time Taek-gyu asked me.

“So are you? Is there anything you want to do to earn money?”

“I’ll tell you later.”

In order to invest, you must first be proactive.

Like last time, a hologram should appear in front of my eyes. However, it is not clear when and how this will emerge.

I remembered the situation at the time. I’m not sure, but it felt like I was automatically reacting to certain information.

Is it possible to predict things related to finance as Taek-gyu said?

“First, I need information.”

* * *

I told my mother and decided to stay at Taek-gyu’s house for the time being.

For a few days, I sat in front of my computer and read through the latest economic articles. We also looked at large-cap stocks listed on the stock market in order of market capitalization.

Countless information came up every day. In investing, information was as important as capital.

Based on that information, stock prices, oil prices, gold prices, exchange rates, and bond yields went up and down repeatedly.

These days, the disclosure system is well developed, so institutions and companies are obliged to post important information.

Therefore, with a few clicks, I could look into the good news and the bad news.

The problem is that the information I have access to is accessible to everyone. And information that everyone knows is less valuable as information.

Good news or bad news was already reflected in the price.

Stocks for good things were high enough and stocks for bad things were low enough.

If you start trading after seeing the published information, it is easy to go backwards.

Like the Mountain Hill bankruptcy or the OPEC production cut agreement, I needed information that no one else knew but only I knew.

But all day long, I looked at the monitor with my eyes falling out, but nothing came to my mind.

“Are there any reactions?”

“Not at all.”

All I have learned is that the government’s economic policy is a hoax, and the economic situation is as difficult as it was during the IMF.

“Even if you do foreknowledge, it doesn’t happen right away. Think slowly.”

“·················ogue.”

Am I being overly impatient?

I think so, Taek-gyu said.

“But don’t you have to write a contract before doing it?”

“What contract?”

“It’s a contract to split the money in half.”

“Isn’t it meaningful to receive such a thing from the person who will receive it?”

it means in a good way.

If he had not kept his promise, he wouldn’t have sent me 500 million in the first place. That’s why I’m not worried even though I have 800 million won in Taek-gyu’s account.

Nevertheless, Taek-gyu dared to write a contract and handed it to me. The content was that Taek-gyu would be responsible for all the losses, and the profits would be split in half.

“As my older sister says, the closer we are, the more certain we should do this. You sign it too.”

We each signed two contracts and were given one each.

I folded the contract, put it in my wallet, turned off the computer, and stood up.

“I should have a cup of coffee or something.”

When I opened the refrigerator, there were beer, cola and juice inside. Unlike me, who likes coffee, Taek-gyu had the principle that drinks should be sweet.

This makes me fat

As I was contemplating whether to go out to buy coffee or not, my phone rang.

Tirling!

It was the first number I saw. Is it spam?

I received it once.

“Hello.”

[Kang Jin-hoo sunbaenim, is this your cell phone?]

It was a female voice.

“Yes, but who……?”

[Ah! This is Yuri Shin, senior.]

“Shin Yuri…?”

[Yes. Remember?]

I remembered the freshman I saw at the drinking party. I quickly remembered it because of the characteristic blonde hair.

“How did you know this number?”

This is a new cell phone opened after being discharged from the military. So no one knows the number.

[I asked Min-young senior.]

“Alas.”

How could this child hand over someone else’s personal information so recklessly?

[Where are you now?]

“It’s Gangnam…”

Then Yuri’s voice brightened.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

[Good for you. I’m from Gangnam too.]

“okay?”

But what’s good?

[What are you doing now?]

“I’m going out to buy coffee.”

[It’s better. I was thinking of drinking coffee too. If it’s okay, would you like to go to a cafe together?]

“Huh?”

see you all of a sudden? Why?

[Where are you in Gangnam?]

“Here at Eonju Station.”

[Then how about Lydia Coffee Lab in Nonhyeon-dong? It will be close to where you are.]

I was going out for coffee anyway.

“Okay. How long can I go?”

I hung up the phone and got my clothes on.

Taek-gyu, who was playing the game, asked.

“Where are you going?”

“I’ll come get some coffee.”

“Buy some lunch boxes at the convenience store on the way home.”

“·················ogue.”

We have a lot of money, so let’s eat some good things.

* * *

The cafe Yuri mentioned was not far from Taek-gyu’s house.

15 minutes on foot?

After crossing the crosswalk and walking up the hill, I saw a large building in the middle of the hill.

A woman in her early 20s in padding was sitting at an outdoor table near the entrance. Her slender legs in tights were exposed under her short skirt.

She flicked her hair and looked at her smartphone, then jumped up from her seat and greeted me as I approached her.

“Hello, senior.”

“Uh, hello.”

I raised my hand to say hello.

In the warm sunlight, her hair glistened with gold.

There are very few business school students who have such a gorgeous hair style. This is because the atmosphere at Hankuk University is conservative and the professors are strict.

At that time, the lighting was dim, so I couldn’t see in detail, but in bright light, she is quite beautiful. I think I can see why Kyung-il treated him so kindly.

By the way, why did you ask to see me?
