team. Ernest brings the knowledge and experience acquired from his hedge fund manager mentor to the table.

It does not matter how young or old you are. It is never too early or late to learn how to master investing.Clients of The Profit Room are taught how to both understand and invest in stocks, cryptocurrency and futures independent of market fads, news and trends. Members of the community have opportunities to mentor and be mentored.
Latoya comments, “When I was able to replace my income trading, I partnered with Ernest to launch The Profit Room and it has been great working with savvy individuals from all over the world. Our global impact is incredible and I am happy to be a part of this movement.”
