"When there is panic in the market, I have more fun"

Living a few wages away from bankruptcy makes us more vulnerable to any economic turmoil or setback. An experience that she lived in the flesh of her own Francisca Serrano when at the age of 28 she was diagnosed with cancer that forced her to be off work for a long period and lose a good part of her income. "That's when I decided that if the doctors saved my life, I would also save myself, and so began my desire to earn money in another way," she says. And she did it: in a few years she amassed a fortune investing in the stock market.

The woman from Malaga, considered the best Spanish trader, opens the doors of her school for us in this new episode of the 'Pocket' podcast, where she explains the recipe for her success as a stock market operator. Knowledge that she also shares in her classes and in various published books, the profits of which she allocates to charity and cancer research. When asked if she fears a new financial crisis, Serrano replies: "It is practically impossible for a trader to go bankrupt." And she asserts: "When there is panic in the market, I have more fun" ".
