Chapter 6: The Next Move
Leon Carter sat at his desk, his laptop screen glowing in the dimly lit apartment. His heart still pounded from the excitement of his last deal.
[Total Cash on Hand: $79,172]
[Mission Progress: $98,954 / $50,000 Earned]
[Time Left: 3 Days, 12 Hours]
The real estate flip had been a huge success. He had taken a big risk, leveraging his loan and system guidance to make a nearly 80% return on investment.
But there was still time left on the mission clock, and Leon wasn't the kind of person to sit back and relax when there was money to be made.
The Financial God System chimed in with a soft ding, and a translucent blue interface appeared in front of him.
[New Investment Paths Available!]
1. Stock Market (Options Trading – High Risk, High Reward)
2. Wholesale Real Estate (Fast Cash – Low Risk, Medium Reward)
3. Small Business Investment (Steady Growth – Low Risk, Long-Term Profit)
Option 1: Stock Market – Options Trading (High Risk, High Reward)
The system recommended leveraging his capital to trade stock options.
> [Strategy: Short-Term Momentum Plays]
[Potential Profit: 30% to 100% in 24 Hours]
[Risk Level: High]
With $79,172, he could execute multiple trades, using the system's high-accuracy predictions.
Leon considered it.
With the right trades, he could double his money overnight.
But one mistake, and he could lose everything.
---
Option 2: Wholesale Real Estate (Fast Cash, Low Risk, Medium Reward)
This method involved finding undervalued properties, getting them under contract, and selling the contract to an investor—without needing to buy the property himself.
> [Potential Profit Per Deal: $5,000 - $25,000]
[Timeframe: 1-3 Days]
[Risk Level: Low]
It was less risky than the stock market, and Leon could lock in profits quickly.
But the earnings were lower, and he'd need to find motivated sellers fast.
---
Option 3: Small Business Investment (Steady Growth, Low Risk, Long-Term Profit)
The system had detected a local business struggling with cash flow but had the potential to double its revenue with proper funding.
> [Business Type: High-End Coffee Shop in Prime Location]
[Owner Needs: $30,000 Investment]
[Projected ROI: 40% in 6 Months]
[Risk Level: Low]
Leon liked the idea of owning a share of a business, but the growth was slow.
If he put $30,000 into this, he wouldn't see returns for months.
Leon rubbed his chin.
Each option had its pros and cons.
• Stock market trading had massive profit potential, but one bad trade could wipe out his gains.
• Wholesale real estate was a safe and fast way to flip contracts without needing capital.
• Investing in a small business could provide steady, long-term income, but it wouldn't help him hit his mission goal quickly.
If he wanted to maximize his profits, he needed to be bold but calculated.
Leon cracked his knuckles.
"I'll do both stock trading and wholesaling."
Step One: High-Stakes Stock Trading
Leon decided to risk $40,000 in the stock market while keeping $39,172 for real estate wholesaling.
He activated the system's Market Scanner, which immediately began analyzing thousands of stocks in real time. The screen flickered before presenting three high-probability trades.
[Scanning for High-Profit Trades…]
[Three Trade Opportunities Detected!]
1. Tech Stock Call Option (High Growth Potential) → $15,000 Investment
2. Energy Stock Put Option (Market Downtrend) → $10,000 Investment
3. AI Startup Short-Term Swing Trade → $15,000 Investment
Leon had never traded options before the system arrived, but now he had insider-level predictions.
However, just as he was about to execute the trades, a red warning flashed.
[Caution: Market Volatility Detected]
Leon frowned.
The AI stock he was about to invest in had a high probability of manipulation. If he wasn't careful, he could get caught in a pump-and-dump scheme.
He hesitated for a moment.
Then, instead of going all in, he adjusted his trade:
• $10,000 into the AI stock instead of $15,000
• Reallocated $5,000 to a stable blue-chip company
[Trade Execution Complete – Results in 24 Hours]
Leon sighed in relief.
If he had blindly followed the initial recommendation, he might have been wiped out in a market trap.
The system was powerful, but ultimately, he was the one making the decisions.
Now, he had to wait for market results.
Step Two: Wholesale Real Estate – Fast Cash
While his trades were running, Leon turned his attention to real estate wholesaling.
Unlike flipping houses, wholesaling didn't require him to buy properties—just find sellers and investors to connect.
He activated the Property Scan feature.
[Scanning Local Market…]
[One Motivated Seller Found!]
• 3-Bedroom Home in Foreclosure
• Market Value: $180,000
• Seller Asking Price: $90,000
Leon immediately dialed the seller's number.
After three rings, an exhausted male voice answered.
"Hello?"
Leon spoke confidently but politely.
"Hi, I'm interested in your property."
The man sighed. "You're the fifth investor to call me today."
Leon smirked. "Then let's not waste time. I can make an offer now."
There was a pause. "Go ahead."
"$85,000. I can close in 48 hours."
The seller hesitated. "I… I was hoping for at least $90,000."
Leon leaned forward. "I can do $90,000, but I need time to arrange financing." He let the silence drag. "Or I can do $85,000 right now with a cash contract."
Another pause. Then—
"…Alright. $85,000."
[Property Secured Under Contract!]
Now, Leon needed to find a buyer fast.
Using the system's Investor Matching, he found a real estate investor willing to buy the contract for $95,000.
He set up the deal, signed the contract transfer, and within hours—
[Wholesale Deal Completed!]
[Profit Earned: $10,000]
Final Results (After 24 Hours)
After a long night of working deals, Leon finally checked his balance.
His stock trades had finished—and they had paid off big time.
• Options Trading Profits: $40,000 → $76,000 (+$36,000 profit)
• Wholesale Real Estate Profit: +$10,000
• Total Profit Earned: $46,000
• New Cash Balance: $125,172
Leon leaned back in his chair, exhaling.
He had just made $46,000 in a single day.
And he still had two days left in the mission.
The Financial God System chimed again.
[New Investment Opportunity Available!]
[Would You Like to Proceed?]
Leon grinned.
This was just the beginning.
Mission Progress So Far :
• Total Earned: $144,954
• Remaining Cash: $125,172
• Time Left: 2 Days, 12 Hours
Leon cracked his knuckles.
It was time for the next move.
