MEET OUR FOUNDER
Vlad Tayman
I was born in Kiev, Ukraine. My family and I came to America when I was 7. We were ridiculously poor. We lived in the poor neighborhoods of Brooklyn, NY. My parents worked in a local restaurant delivering food and waiting on tables, so you can imagine the money could have been better for new immigrants trying to find their way with no English and no friends to turn to.
Eventually, my family figured it out and ended up living the American dream: owning a house, having great careers, the picket fence, and all that other feel-good stuff. It was tough because we moved so much during my early development years. I went through 16 schools anywhere from Ukraine, Italy, New York, Wisconsin, and New Jersey, so making long-term relationships with people over the years was impossible.
Being an only child and going through all these changes resulted in social anxiety during high school, but I didn't want that to define me. So I decided at 17 to talk to as many people as possible by doing sales. That was the very beginning for me! I succeeded in it and eventually became a leader for a big corporation where I worked for 20 years. Finally, I reached the top of the corporate ladder and what people consider the American dream. I went from a young salesperson to manager and regional manager and eventually earned my favorite position, a training director.
Don't get me wrong, this was my dream too, but finally, it started to turn into a nightmare. When I was single, it was smooth sailing. I lived my job every moment and loved it; however, it was no longer fun once I started building a family that consisted of my wife and two kids.
Trying to manage all the hats I was wearing at the company with over 400 people under me, traveling the whole northeast, and being a dad just caused havoc. I'm not the type to slack on my responsibilities to eventually become human, and I started having severe mental issues because of all the stress. I knew I had to figure out a way out where I could still make the money I was making but focus most of my time on my family.
After many years of trials and tribulations, I had different opportunities with real estate, penny stocks, day trading, etc. Finally, I figured out Swing Trading Options, which ultimately allowed me to escape working for others.
After doing that for a few years, I decided it was time to give back to the universe by sharing my knowledge in a way that was shared with me through 1 on 1 coaching. That is the reason I designed this program! Anyone who figured out a way to create success for themselves. They should figure out a way to share it with others and contribute to the better good.
