Ross Cameron got into the stock market when he was in 5th grade or around the time he started junior high. He found out that his great great uncle made a substantial fortune in the stock market. According to Ross himself, his uncle’s children and his cousins were still prospering off the fortune created by his great great uncle.
Once he began 7th grade, Ross got involved in a school program that learned about the stock market. He went on a field trip to New York City to learn more about the stock market and how it functions. It was this time during the Dot.Com bubble that he learned about the markets and how he can prosper once working as a trader. This is how Ross Cameron began a whole successful trading career.
During junior high, Ross Cameron worked with a classmate where they put together a portfolio of stocks and managed it throughout the semester. Ross purchased shares of all of the companies he knew about. This helped him and his classmate manage a profitable portfolio. This inspired him to pursue a career in trading once he finished his compulsory education. Shortly after completing the stock portfolio project, Ross decided to begin putting his own money in the stock market.
He contacted Edward Jones and said that he wanted to invest $100 into a ski company based in the United States. While he was looking to invest that $100, the advisor told him that the firm receives a $50 commission for each trade. As a result, Ross Cameron decided to hold off on investing in the stock market until he had more capital to invest. In 2001, Ross Cameron opened up his first brokerage account by putting in $1,000.
