I really haven't paid even once on trading and investing seminars. But I did tried once paying a forex trader that introduced to us a pro. We ended up losing overall and I lost nearly a thousand dollars too. Still the best way is educating yourself thru books and some good guides in the internet. All are free.
I agree.It's still the best way to expose yourself in all trading resources like some trusted books or articles in the internet and even some youtube videos.Even myself i had learned from my own research and studies that has open my mind to a world of crypto trading and even until now i'm still in the learning process.
I have been learning from top universities of the world for free. Despite using your money to get enrolled in unauthentic courses with uncertain outputs, you should rather register with the edX, coursera or HarvardX which are the platforms that give you world class education free of cost. You can get the same knowledge for free unlike the students who pay thousands of dollars in MIT for a degree. The ultimate quest is to learn of course.
