#14 - Andrew Diaz | Trading Made Me Rich… Then Nearly Cost Me My Family

He made his first million at 26… then lost $100,000 in a single day. This is the real story behind Stock Market Wolf, Andrew Diaz.

In this powerful episode of the Wealth Made Simple podcast, Andrew Diaz shares his journey from being a 19-year-old single dad who couldn’t afford diapers to becoming a millionaire through investing and options trading. He breaks down how Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki changed his mindset, how he built wealth through biotech stocks and day trading, and how discovering options unlocked explosive gains — including $10,000 days and even million-dollar runs.

But this episode goes deeper than profits. Andrew opens up about his biggest trading loss, how ego, greed, and overconfidence nearly cost him more than money, and the moment he realized success in the market meant nothing if he failed at home. From blowing $25,000 early on to losing nearly six figures in a single day, he shares the emotional and mental transformation that helped him rebuild not just as a trader, but as a husband, father, and leader.

If you’re interested in day trading, options trading, risk management, or becoming a more disciplined entrepreneur, this conversation is packed with real lessons. Trading is just a piece of the money game — and the money game is just a piece of life.
