Copy Trading Change My Life Story 16 The Power of Compounding

     I started with $100. It felt pointless. "What can I do with $100?" I asked myself. But I committed to adding $20 a week to my copy trading account. It was a tiny amount. A couple of cups of coffee. A pizza the returns weren't huge sometimes $2, sometimes $5. But something beautiful happened when I stopped looking at the dollar amount and started looking at the percentage. I started to understand compound interest. It's the eighth wonder of the world. That $100 is slowly turning into a snowball rolling down a hill.

Story 04 Credit Card Sera the Skimming Scam in the Big City

Keywords: Identity Theft, Fraud Alerts, Chip Technology, Digital Wallets      Sera was a tourist in New York City. She swiped her magnetic stripe card at a shady bodega ATM because she needed cash. Two days later, her bank app pinged: a $400 charge at a gas station in Texas. She was a victim of identity theft via skimming.      Because Sera had opted into fraud alerts and used digital wallets (Apple Pay) for most transactions, her bank caught the anomaly quickly. She learned that in the USA, you must use chip technology (insert, not swipe) or contactless payments whenever possible. Sera filed a police report and froze her credit. "Never again," she promised, vowing to only use ATMs inside reputable bank branches.
