Ryan Sorrell was only 8 years old when he made his first investment in Bitcoin, after his dad taught him about crypto.“I understood part of it, but I ultimately did more research,” Sorrell, now 15, told The Post.Now that he has his own money from bussing tables at a retirement home, he’s doubling down.For the past year, the teen has put his entire paycheck — about $800 a month during the summer — into the market on CashApp. He’s mostly invested in Bitcoin and MicroStrategy.“This summer I want to make as much money as I can to invest, and I want to set myself up with a portfolio that pays high dividends so I can keep reinvesting in the future,” Sorrell said.So far, the 15-year-old has $6,000 in Bitcoin, $3,500 of which is profit. He has made another $337 in the stock market.He spends about an hour each day researching the market, teaching himself primarily with AI tools like ChatGPT.
Nice job, Joel.
