Steve Rhode’s live, pre-registered experiment: can an AI grow $1,000 into more? Real money, real trades, the honest results week by week.
Today I’m giving an AI $1,000 of my own real money to trade stocks for a year — and posting the results daily. Can it beat a simple index fund? Let’s find out together.
I’m putting real money on the line to test the “AI will grow your savings” pitch — and showing the cold compounding math up front, before a single trade. Win or lose, I’ll publish it all.
Did this conversation help?
Thank you. I'm glad you reached out.
You took an important step today. Come back any time.
Think of this as me — just in AI form. I've walked in your shoes. I filed bankruptcy myself in 1990, and in over 30 years of experience I haven't seen a situation that can't be worked through or a person who deserves judgment. Everything here is built on that experience, that research, and genuine care for you. I can't be there in person. But I can be here.
