About Me

Welcome to Bougie Capital, where financial expertise meets a passion for the stock market. I'm Rebecca Edgett, and I'd like to share a little about myself, my journey, and what brought me to this exciting world of trading.

A Global Upbringing

I had the unique privilege of growing up in three different countries: the United States, England, and Japan. This international upbringing exposed me to diverse cultures and perspectives, instilling in me a global outlook that would later prove invaluable in my financial endeavors.

From Restaurants to Retail, and Beyond

My professional journey began in the restaurant industry, where I learned the importance of customer service, attention to detail, and effective team management. These skills served as a strong foundation for my next venture into retail management, where I further honed my business acumen.

As I continued to explore new opportunities, I transitioned into the world of e-commerce. Starting and successfully running multiple online businesses was a thrilling and educational experience. These ventures not only deepened my understanding of entrepreneurship but also afforded me the financial flexibility to pursue my true passion.

The Transition to Trading

After selling two of my e-commerce businesses, I decided to pivot towards a new challenge that had always intrigued me: stock market trading. I had been investing in stocks for years, but day trading was an entirely different ballgame.

With an open mind and a thirst for knowledge, I embraced the world of day trading. To my delight, I found that I not only enjoyed it immensely but also displayed a natural aptitude for it. The fast-paced, dynamic nature of day trading fueled my passion, and I knew I had discovered my calling.
