Goal

Grow your net worth as much as possible before the timeline ends. Net worth is your cash plus investments and venture value, minus debt.

Market Basics

Pick a company, choose how much to buy, and your stake changes as market cap moves. You can sell any time. Try to avoid oversized bets while learning.

Cash, Debt, and Bankruptcy

Banking Services lets you borrow and repay. Borrowing can boost returns, but debt adds risk. Bankruptcy happens when net worth is below zero while you still owe debt.

Venture Capital

VC unlocks at higher net worth. In VC, you invest in private companies that can grow, fail, or IPO. It is higher variance than public stocks.

Career Paths

Path choice is unlocked once reputation and net worth requirements are met. IB focuses on deals and fees. VC focuses on portfolio building and fund mechanics. Solo stays purely market-driven.

Reputation

Reputation rises from strong outcomes and falls from bad ones. It unlocks career opportunities and affects progression.

Stress

Stress increases from heavy deal load, drawdowns, and adverse periods. It falls when conditions calm down. High stress can hurt decision-making, so manage pace and risk.

IB Deal Flow

Pitch deals, run valuation, then execute diligence to close or fail. Better valuation quality usually improves close chance and outcomes.

Practical Beginner Loop

Start with smaller positions, keep some cash reserve, use debt cautiously, and scale up once your net worth and consistency improve.
