Million Dollar Path

Small account. Real numbers. The long, boring road from $8,400 to $1,000,000.

Disclaimer (a.k.a. the "please don't sue me / please don't be me" page)

The one-sentence version: This blog is one guy's journal. It is not financial advice, not a recommendation, and not an offer to manage your money. Trading involves substantial risk of loss and most retail traders lose money. Past performance — mine included, even the good bits — does not guarantee future results.

1. Educational and entertainment purposes only

Everything on Million Dollar Path — the posts, the trade log, the charts — exists to document my own trading and maybe keep you entertained while I do it. I'm not a registered investment advisor, a broker, a financial planner, or anything with letters after it. I'm an operations manager in Phoenix who is fascinated by markets and honest enough to post the red months.

2. Not financial advice

Nothing here is a recommendation to buy, sell, or so much as glance at any security. When I write about a trade, I'm writing history: what I did, why, and what happened. If you copy a trade and it works, nice. If you copy it and it doesn't, that's on you — and I say that with love. Do your own research, and if you need real advice, hire a fiduciary, not a blogger.

3. Risk is real

Options and equities trading can lose money faster than most hobbies. I've had weeks that cost me over a thousand dollars and I've written about them here so that's not a hypothetical. Only ever risk capital you can afford to lose, and understand that leveraged instruments can move against you quickly. If the drawdowns on this blog stress you out to read, that's useful information about what they'd feel like to live.

4. The numbers

P&L figures are my own account records, believed accurate, provided "as is." They include commissions and are on a cash account. They also include deposits from savings — the about page has the breakdown — so the "journey" is part trading, part saving. I present them as accurately as I can, but I'm one guy with a spreadsheet, not an accounting firm.

5. No course, no signals, no affiliate wheeling-and-dealing

Currently this blog earns nothing. No course, no Discord, no "free signals" funnel, no sponsored brokers. If that ever changes I'll update this page loudly. If a Jordan Reyes ever DMs you a "risk-free opportunity," it isn't me — I barely DM anyone.

6. Affiliate-ish stuff, if it ever exists

Some books or tools might get linked casually. If a link is ever an affiliate link, I'll say so. Right now, there aren't any. This sentence is here so future me has to update it, publicly.

7. Privacy, briefly

Blogger sets basic cookies for this site (session stuff, comment state if you comment). That's about it — no ad networks, no tracking pixels I control, no email list. Email me at jordan@milliondollarpath.com if you want something deleted; I don't collect much, so it's an easy ask.

8. And finally

I've lost real money making the mistakes on this blog so you can read about them for free. That's the whole business model. Take what's useful, leave the rest, and be careful out there — the market doesn't know your name and it doesn't care about your plan.
