Well...this is how:
It was 1997, I just landed in San Francisco as a fresh new commercial Architect/Designer... and I was just starting coding in my spare time.
I got lots of contracts designing new .com Startup and was invited to there "opening" parties. At one of the party, someone asked me a question that will change the course of my life.
<<are you going to invest in our coming IPO?>>
IPO... what the hell is this ??? I said...
A few days later, I came across an article about how Miami was fighting crime using a Pattern Recognition Software.
And I thought I could apply the same kind of software onto the Stock Market... and this is how I found my passion.
