A Risky Investment That Will Make It Right

After Jake returned to the hotel he finally can relax, Jake took a shower and then lay down to rest, but he still had to call his mother to give the good news, Jake tried to call several more times Eva was not attending so he had to give up.

In fact, Eva was not sure how to use the cell phone and only Jake and Anna had her number, when Jake had a game Eva kept the cell phone nearby because she knew he could call but usually she leaves in her office while working in the kitchen.

As Jake did not say anything that was running a marathon she did not even think he could call, Anna was even worse and had not brought the phone to work, but Jake did not bother with it, he would have to wait a few days before he could talk to them personally.

So Jake thought of getting some sleep to rest his body before it was dinner time with Tiffany at night, but the system did not seem to want Jake to rest.

[Congratulations to Jake for winning this Chicago major marathon, even if that was expected with the latest results from his workouts, it's still incredible that you can win even with all the pressure of a real marathon.]

"I'm really happy about it, it was a dream come true and now that I've won I want to continue to win other marathons and win the Olympics too."

[It's good to see that you keep trying even after you've won, I've talked to you even though you're tired to give your reward.]

[For having won one of the 6 major marathons of the world you gain 1 point in Resistance and 1 point in Agility and greatly increased the proficiency in your abilities.]

Jake really had an unexpected surprise, he did not think he could get statistics points in any sport other than basketball, with that point in Resistance he could have more confidence in basketball and marathon.

Even so Jake learned that the system statistics were not absolute, after all even though he could finish the marathon after a few months of training thanks to the system, but his Resistance is now close to the person in the world who has more Resistance in numbers.

Even though Jake is still away from those athletes who can run an Ironman, it was that same marathon that he did and more swimming and cycling, if it depended only on the system he could only do this with 50 or more of Resistance, but these people have neither more than 40 in Resistance.

After that Jake was learning not to rely so much on his statistics, even so, Jake was very pleased to gain a few more points in statistics because Jake was different from the others and could only rely on his statistics to get things.

If he had reached 50 in all three physical stats he was confident in winning any sport that relied more on his body with some training.

[I realized that you did not expect to score points with your third job, but you won one of the 6 major marathons in the world, after that there are only 5 major marathons, the Olympics and the athletics world that you could win statistics.

[And if you win all those stats by winning those competitions you could say that you've reached the top of the marathon, and if you think the stats are not the same as the others you're wrong.]

[The difference between you and these people is the technique and skill if you had the same stats as now and were SS in the Second Lung and Iron Body skills you could be able to finish an Ironman competition.]

[After all, even if it's not like basketball is important sports that count on skill and talent if you think it's that simple, it's wrong.]

So Jake realized that he missed out on many things with these people who had the talent to run and train for several years, it seemed like he had to think about how best his own abilities were.

"Fate, let me see my statistics window of my third job."

[Here it is]

[Name: Jake Smith]

[Age: 16 years]

[Job: Runner]

[Height: 1.89 m]

[Weight: 87 Kg]

[Force 32]

[Agility 33]

[Resistance 36]

[Intelligence 58]

[Luck 99]

Techniques

[Second Lung C]

[Iron Body B]

So Jake can see that his stats increased a lot in almost 6 months, of course, this improvement is related to the 2 statistic points he won for the reward for winning the marathon, yet he could now understand why it had become easier for him run the 50 km in training.

His two skills also went up only one rank, but thinking that the system had said he thought it was good, after all the system had said that these skills were not the same as basketball, it did not have several levels and when it actually reaches SS rank it would be the most he could get.

In SS rank he could easily run an Ironman competition with a few more statistics, but even if Jake had an interest in that was not his final goal, he wanted to try to narrow the gap and get more into athletics in general.

Of course, this was a plan for 5 or 9 years from now that would be enough to greatly increase his speed and stamina, even if it was a long time Jake would only be 25 at that time so he could think long term like that.

After Jake finally could sleep for a few hours, when dinner time arrived a hotel employee said that Tiffany had come to the hotel hours ago and had said something urgent had come up and she had to catch a plane to Miami before.

Jake was curious to know what it was, but Tiffany must have thought Jake was very tired after the marathon and decided to leave without saying anything to him, yet the next day Jake would have enough time to talk to her in Miami.

So Jake dined at a nearby restaurant and returned to the hotel to rest for a while to catch the plane the other day, but nothing was going as Jake wanted, he received information that someone was waiting for him in the lobby of the hotel.

Jake had to go to see who it was because it could be someone from the race organization to say something to him, but coming to the salon he found an elegant woman waiting for him.

Jake did not know what this woman wanted, but it did not look like someone from the organization of the race.

"Hi you must be Jake, I recognize you a bit of the television commercial I saw, but you were younger and younger than now, my name is Chloe and I'm the WBBM-TV reporter who is from CBS."

"Hi Chloe, nice to meet you, I wanted to know what you wanted with me?"

"I know you're tired but I wanted to schedule an interview with you on television, it's exciting to see a young American winning the Chicago marathon after more than 10 years after the last time an American won, and you still have many interesting facts."

"I could even do this interview with you, but it looks like you did not get ready today and I have a flight booked for Miami tomorrow afternoon, so I do not think we'll have the time."

"You could go in the morning at the television station, then the station could pick up a car to take you to the airport, I wanted to even record it right here, but you chose a hotel that does not allow cameras to enter."

"Alright, tomorrow you have a car get me early and then take me to the airport after the interview is over."

"Combined then, see you tomorrow."

Jake thought about rejecting this interview, but thinking about what he would have to do in the future he could use that opportunity to get what he wanted more easily, using television to solve a problem was not something Jake did.

In the morning when the car arrived Jake was already ready with his things in hand, they arrived at the station quickly and Jake was taken to a studio to do the interview, luck would be recorded, if it were live Jake would not accept.

"Hi Jake, thanks again for agreeing to give me this interview."

"Alright, I just do not want to miss the flight later in the afternoon."

After a while, the staff set up the cameras and made a brief check and then began the interview.

"Hello everyone, I'm Chloe and I'm here today for a special interview with one of the most talented youngsters I've ever met, he's the winner of the Chicago marathon that happened yesterday."

"Jake is only 16 years old this year and he is an American from Miami, we are very happy to see an American win the Chicago marathon after more than a decade."

"Say hi to Chicago Jake."

"Hi, Chicago, I appreciate your invitation to be here."

"We who thank Jake, what motivated you to participate in the Chicago marathon which is one of the world's top marathons as your first marathon?"

"I've always loved running, and I've always had good resistance since I've been a kid I run a lot more than the others and I do not tire so easily, and since it's my last year at school since more than 6 months ago I decided to run this marathon."

"And as I had to run I wanted to win too, so I trained a lot for that day and everything went very well."

"It really is an incredible story, in his debut marathon with 16 years becoming now one of the top names in athletics is impressive, you say you trained for this marathon?"

"Yes, I ran whenever I could almost every day on my school's athletic field, at first I was running about 10 km, and over time I was increasing my daily running and increasing my confidence as well."

"Your school is Elite school, is not it, this school is not very well known for athletics, but many should know that in recent years this school has excelled in basketball, and this has a lot to do with our guests today."

"That's what makes him so special apart from the fact that he's only 16 when he won that marathon, Jake here as well as a marathon runner is also a basketball player."

"But he's not an ordinary player, but the captain of his high school basketball team who was the national championship champion last year."

"And there is more, Jake here was the MVP of the last national championship with a record of 16 games in a row making a Triple Double, and this record is now bigger because his team has won the regional championship, that record is 21 games now.

"Jake like you, does a basketball player get time to train for a marathon and still win this marathon?"

"As I said it is a dream of mine, I always wanted to run and I thought I could, I would train the team after school and after the basketball training I would do the training on the athletic field."

"So you ran more than 20 km almost every day after attending classes and still attending your basketball team's training?"

"That's right."

"Really incredible, an inspiring story for people who dream of running the marathon and say they do not have time to train, if you feel like doing it, you can do it."

"But one thing before finishing the interview, have you decided whether to go to a university or go to the NBA if you have the chance?"

"I go to a university, I have not decided yet, but I want to continue studying after school."

"Alright then, we'll soon see Jake at college games, the university he's choosing will have a basketball player and a marathon runner along, thanks for the Jake interview."

"My pleasure."

After that Chloe ended the interview and Jake took a ride and arrived in time to catch a plane to Miami, he wanted to rest at home today.

On the same night that Jake left Chicago, some of the station's sports newspapers and programs liked the interview and decided to run Jake's interview on their shows, after which even the CBS headquarters spent part of the interview across the country.

So Jake again became known to many people, much remembered Jake from the newspaper's television commercial, Jake's story was already known by people and if one day someone mentioned it again it would be easier to remember him.

The other day after resting well at home from the weariness of everything that happened in Chicago, Jake first tried to call Tiffany to try to figure out what had happened, but Tiffany did not answer the phone as she always did.

So Jake could tell that something was happening, but he had no way of knowing what it was and if he could help with something he was sure Tiffany would try to talk to him, so he decided to forget about it for a while.

So Jake decided to go to the restaurant to personally tell his mother and Anna about the marathon, even though many had seen this story about Jake, people often forgot about these things, so Jake was still stranger in the streets of the city.

Arriving at the restaurant Jake can see that Lola was busy and so went along to the kitchen to look for his mother, so he told Eva and Anna that he had gone to Chicago and had won the marathon there.

Eva was very happy for Jake as always and hugged him and Anna was also happy that Jake had won a contest, but Jake himself may realize that the two seemed not to know what it meant to win a major marathon like Chicago.

Thinking about it, it was normal for many people not to care much about athletics outside the Olympics, people usually only knew about sports better known to teams like basketball, but they only cared more about athletics when they got to the Olympics.

Of course, after the internet made all the information more accessible to everyone, people started getting more interested in other sports more often, but Eva and Anna only knew the sports that were most talked about on television.

So Jake was helpless as to this, he could not just teach them how great and important were the major marathons because that would be the same as showing up for winning, he was sure that if one day he could win a gold medal in the Olympics the two will realize just how important the marathon is.

After having relaxed a little talking to his mother, it was time to go back to normal training with the school basketball team, after all the state championship would soon begin and the team had to be ready to win.

David and Harrison were training very hard because they were really starting to be afraid of Nathan and Lucas, after all, everyone could see how the newbies were talented and improved very fast.

Nathan and Lucas were also training very hard as well because they could feel that they could have the opportunity to get a place in the starting lineup, the one who was happier and satisfied with it was coach Mike.

But he was also divided, in the beginning, he had never thought of taking David and Harrison out of the team because it was their last year and they were both good players and even if they had a poor defense they were good at attacking.

But even he did not expect Nathan and Lucas to improve so quickly, they were very good at defense and were improving in the attack, not to mention that defense was now the most important for the Elite team in more difficult games.

That's because if it was necessary the coach Mike could count on Jake to make most of his team's points, but not even Jake could alone improve the team's defense, he could only help the team with just over 10 steals in the entire game.

This was normal after all because basketball is a sport that depends much more on the team than on the individual's only skill, so the training now was to improve the tactics that the team could do during the match.

Only Jake did not receive complaints from coach Mike, the others even thought at first that it was coach's favoritism, but realized that Jake did not make any mistakes like the others in training, this was normal after all when he started playing Jake was the one who had to decorate several tactics and plays to pass as hand signals to his teammates.

Now Jake, who had an intelligence score of 58 could easily remember the tactics he decorated and follow much better than the others, so his teammates had to learn to do better and stop feeling jealous of Jake.

After training with the basketball team Jake returned home only, he decided on the recommendation of the system to take a week off from his running training, after all the system could help maintain the shape of his body by that time.

Even with the system helping your body to rest and recover better to not have many risks of injury, the system said it was better than Jake sometimes took a break so that his muscles could rest and breathe naturally.

But Jake was only resting like that because in another month he would have another marathon to participate and he had won two points of statistics in the last marathon, so Jake felt he could rest because that point in Resistance was much better than training for 4 months.

In addition, two skills also improved and Jake could improve on a Resistance spot if he won the next marathon, so he thought he could rest a bit.

After a few days of training, Emily had finally come back with the investment report that Jake had asked for in more actions last time.

"I got everything you asked for Jake, $ 910,000 invested gave over 18,200 shares as we expected."

"Very good job Emily, now that I want you to investigate a person for me, I want to invest in his company, but for now you have to tell me if this person has already opened a company and what the current value of the company, then I want that you get a phone number so I can talk to that person."

Emily was a bit puzzled by Jake's request, he wanted to invest in a person's company was up to normal, but from what she saw Jake did not even know the person's phone number and not even if that person had opened the company just like he could invest in such a person.

"What's the name of this person, Jake?"

"That person's name is Jeff Bezos, he must be starting a company in Seattle, look for him for me and try to find him before the end of the year."

"He has a company that seeks to make a profit on the internet, just like Cisco, but since that company has not yet entered the market, I think I can make a lot of it."

"But how did you know about it?"

"His family was from Miami and an acquaintance of mine told me about him, so I wanted to invest in his company because even if I invest little I can earn a lot in the future."

"You can let me find him if he has a company in Seattle."

"I'm counting on you, Emily."

Amazon was one of the biggest companies in the world before Jake went back to the past, so he could not afford to miss out on that chance of investing in the beginning, if he could, he'd take all his shares from Cisco to invest in Amazon in exchange for more, but he knew that Jeff Bezos would not accept it, so it was better to be discreet and try to get at least 20 percent of the company.

In addition, if he bought everything he had in Amazon shares he could not sell so he would not regret it, so he thought he was making the right decision by investing heavily in Cisco and selling it all in a few years, so he would have much capital to invest more and use for himself.

After all, Jake knew that after he became an NBA player, he would not have to worry about a lack of money on a million-dollar salary, but now was the best time to invest.

In fact, Jake could not be considered as having much money now, these deals yielded up to 100 times more often, but even if Jake took out everything he earned even though he was considered successful he could get 6 million to invest until 2000.

But so he could at most win 20 times more and that was not even a lot of money if it were to analyze things well, after all, Jake could make close to 300 million dollars in his career as a basketball player at least if he became a star.

Thinking about it Jake would not earn much from these investments, so he wanted to invest in long-term companies such as Amazon, Google, and Facebook where he could invest millions to earn billions of dollars in the future.

So Jake was just trying to earn more to invest more in these stocks, Jake was also thinking of giving 1 percent of the shares of the investment company to Emily who would be who else would work in that company.

It might not seem like much, but if Jake had $ 1 billion in profit Emily would have $ 10 million, for the investments Jake wanted to make in the hundreds billionth that 1 percent could be worth more than the value of a whole midsize company in the future.

As for opening a company of his own was not Jake's style, even in his past life he wanted to know only about investing and not managing anything, and joining a company at its inception like it would with Amazon was the same as opening a own company as he would have to open up capital to invest in the company, he could end up with less money than investing in a company.

As Jake waited for Emily's response the day of the first state championship game was coming, the team was just training to improve the match and was ready to play anytime.

Everyone was much calmer and confident in winning because everyone was more experienced than last year and also had two new players who could play as well as the team holders.

Even if some players had a bad game they could still guarantee the victory with the substitutes that were the height, so it was quieter.

As the days went by and the day of the first game of the state championship game, Jake woke up early in the morning and ate Eva's breakfast.

Even though it was the way Jake always liked it because he knew that only when you lose something that you start to add value, like when Eva went to all the final games, after a few times Jake was used to it.

But when she had to stop going because of the restaurant that Jake missed most so he had to take advantage now, because when he was in college he would not have anything like that.

After Jake got his things and went to the game site, so after a while everyone was ready for the game, the two teams went to the court and the game began, Mark went up high and took the first possession of the ball for the Elite team.

Jake received the ball and calmly began to organize the game, he advanced a little and passed the ball to David who was open on the right, David advanced and passed the ball to Carter, later on, Carter held the ball a little and passed to Harrison on the left.

Harrison got the free ball and ran into the inside area and did the layup to make 2 more points for the Elite team, Harrison and David were very excited in today's game but they had to play thinking about the team as well.

The reason for this was that the coach seeing the good performance of Nathan and Lucas in the games and mainly how the team's defense improved when they were on the court decided to change their thinking.

So coach Mike decided that each pair would play 2 periods in all state championship games if someone was playing poorly in the game would be immediately replaced, so the coach wanted to see their performance in the games to decide the national championship if they win.

So David and Harrison wanted to prove they deserved to be the starters of the team at least playing those first games well, the problem was that they knew that Nathan and Lucas were thinking of doing the same from the third period.

The best players on the opposing team of today's game were PG Axel and PF Micah, these two positions had Jake and Carter who were the best defenders of the Elite team and so they were more relaxed for that game.

Axel received the ball to advance to the attack, passing from the middle of the court he passed the ball to the SG of his team, the SG received the ball and advanced for a while until David reached the defense by pressing, so SG passed the ball for the SF that made the mid-range shot before Harrison arrived for the defense and made 2 points to tie the game.

Jake received the ball and began to organize another attack for the Elite team, before the middle of the court he passed the ball to Harrison on the left, Harrison advanced and passed the ball to Mark, Mark turned easily and made the dunk to make 2 more points for the Elite team.

Axel got the ball and started another attack for his team, he advanced until after the middle of the court and passed the ball to the SG of his team, the SG passed quickly to the Center, The Center tried to make the move, but Mark was firm in defense.

So the Center had to pass the ball to Micah who received and already made the mid-range shot to tie the game to his team, in those first moves Jake can see that the opposing team was not very strong in defense and attack.

Even though the game seems to be balanced it was because the Elite team was still studying the opponent, but when the defense starts to press the opponents will not have so much room to make the plays with such ease.

Jake advanced again with the ball and began to accelerate the pace of the game, before the line of three points Jake passed the ball to Carter who was open to the right near the bottom of the court, Carter held a little and passed to David that was behind.

David received the Carter ball and made a step back and attempted a shot from outside to make 3 more points for the Elite team, Jake saw that David and Harrison seemed to be more excited to make the plays as long as they did not lose an attack he did not would care.

The game continued like this and the Elite team finished the first period winning by 8 points of difference when the Elite team began to press more in the defense the adversary team began to err more.

The best players on the opposing team were defended by Carter and Jake, Micah even attempted a few plays over Carter, but Axel and a lot of opposing players were fleeing from Jake passing the ball quickly.

So the opposing team was messed up by Jake and missed more, but at the same time, Jake did not get any steal in that first period of the game.

Jake made 6 points so far in 2-point plays and also managed to make 4 assists, he was out because the opponent was weak and because David and Harrison were looking for more plays.

At the end of the second period the elite team already led by 20 points and had the easier game, Jake struggled more in defense and made 4 steals in the game so far, Jake made 14 points and 9 assists, the Triple Double for that game was well underway.

In the third period Nathan and Lucas entered and did not change much the result of the game, the Elite team finished the third period with 30 points of advantage and the adversary team was already more discouraged to play the game, thus the defense of Nathan and Lucas was a slightly erased in this game.

Jake had 21 points and 12 assists in that third period, plus he got 5 more steals to complete 9 in the game so far, so after a while, the game ended with the Elite team's easy victory in that state championship debut.

Jake got another Triple Double and increased his record, even more, Nathan and Lucas were not very happy because they could not do anything to change the game, but the trained Mike understood well that they played better in games more difficult what was important for the coach.

So Jake went home first because a win like this did not bring much satisfaction to him, coming home he called Eva who was waiting for the call and was happy to receive the news of the victory.

So Jake went to rest to prepare for next week, even though he expected Emily to find Jeff Bezos quickly he knew it was impossible by now, in addition, he asked Emily to evaluate Jeff's company now so as not to look like Strange to invest in it.

Jake had received the news that the company's digital camera began to be sold in stores across the country, it looked like the camera was selling well despite the price and the camera was not as advanced as the others on the market.

Jake was surprised but realized that it was because the name of Matthew's company was well-known for more than 30 years making cameras, so the public was more confident in the new product, and the camera was even of good quality taking the limitations.

Jake also did not know exactly what Matthew considered well sold for his company, for the total value of the company if the camera sold 10,000 units would already be considered a success for Matthew's company in the first few weeks.

But for Jake 10,000 unit was too little to have sales for this camera, if Matthew was more determined he could start selling overseas for a slightly larger amount.

After all, for a thousand dollar camera is worth to pay a value to export to Europe and Asia to try to sell at least one million cameras worldwide.

So Jake decided to go to Matthew's company to give this county to him, after all, he had already gotten so involved in Matthew's business on the market that it did not make sense anymore to be shy now.

As soon as Jake entered the company was well received by employees who were all very polite to Jake after the company began to sell well digital cameras Matthew made an alarmist speech to the company.

He told everyone that the company was actually close to bankrupt the way it was, even though everyone was very quiet and did not think about innovating in the last few years, even Matthew, who was always an animated man, began to lose his will and that was why thinking about closing the company.

So when Jake told him that the company needed a change and could even develop more in the market, even if it did not risk the company to fail Matthew would have decided to create the digital cameras.

And many company employees were against this change that could save their jobs, were it not for Matthew to have the absolute majority of the company's stock could happen the company could not make that change.

So the employees were very grateful to Jake who saved the company they worked for. Jake did not know any of this and thought everyone was just being polite and thanked him as he went to Matthew's office.

"Hi Jake, I did not think you'd come here today, I was thinking of calling you only at the end of the month when I got out the first month's sales report."

"I wanted to talk to you about something, how's the sales?"

"We sold 4,000 cameras in just over a week, I expect 15,000 sales by the end of that month."

It was worse than Jake thought less than half of the sales that he considered good, but Jake understood the animation of Matthew, after all even after selling all the machines that would not be used more to make the digital cameras he still had to invest another 4 million just to be able to make the cameras.

In addition to more than 12 million spent on technology and product development, even if most of these 12 million went to develop the technologies of digital cameras in the cell phone and computer was still a lot of money invested.

Yet if it was only to count on the profits Matthew's company could recover more than 4 million dollars in only 1 month of sales, it was impossible that he would not be happy.

But Jake hoped that Matthew would not be blinded by this apparent good result and keep looking to sell more of these cameras, after all, it would not be that they would always be the market leaders with that little thought.

"Jake I said I'd call you here at the end of the month, but since you're here now I'll tell you what I had for the end of the month now when you gave me that idea to save my company you said you wanted it I hired your company."

"I know this was just to bring more credibility to what you were talking about, but I said that if everything went right I would give you a reward, and it seems like everything has gone much more than right, so I'm going to give you your reward now."

"Jake, I'm going to give you 5 percent of the company's stock of digital cameras for you, that's the least I think you deserve, but I can not give you too much either, so I hope it can pay off at least a little What you did for my family."

Jake was shocked at this, 5 percent of the company, even if Matthew had 80 percent of the company, that was a lot to give to someone, especially because Jake did not come up with any investment and gave just one idea so that the company Matthew did not fail.

"I can not accept this Matthew, it's a lot of money, it's more than money is a piece of your family's assets, I can not accept that."

"I know it may seem like a lot, but if you think about it, it's not that much, after all, if it were not for you, that company would have failed, even if we were quick and we would sell that company before it faltered we would lose a lot more than those 5 percent on that sale."

"And even if that company can be worth 10 billion or more in the future it will all be thanks to your advice, then those 5 percent is little even for what you did to my company."

"But I think stocks are a lot, after all, you'll be giving me a share of the voting right of that company, so if you insist you can give me that 5 percent cash and you get the shares."

"I'm going to tell Jake, I'm very worried about the future of this company, after a few years who will replace me here is Joseph, even though I know you will try to help him too, with those 5 percent you will be our family from now on."

"And even if he does not want to hear those 5 percent you have can save that company, so please accept Jake."

So Jake got lost in what to do, he knew that Matthew was being sincere in giving these actions and his motive is also very well thought it seemed so Jake did not want to deny after seeing Matthew asking him to accept.

"All right, Matthew, I'll take these actions, thank you very much, I'll do my best to make sure you do not have a loss even after you give me those actions."

"Hahaha you've done more than enough Jake, I'm still paying you for what you've done if you do what I said I'm going to have to give an even bigger share of the company."

So Matthew asked that Oliver, who was also Jake's lawyer, organize the transfer of stock, Jake did not insist anymore because Matthew seemed to have thought of everything, but 5 percent of that company now without increasing the value after the success in the sales of the machines is at least 16 million.

So Jake got even more into the group of millionaires after being a millionaire with 15 years after his actions and his patronage surpassed that value, that's one reason Matthew loved Jake so much, a young millionaire who came out of nowhere was someone that he should have in his company.

"Well then Matthew, as you know I did not come to your company knowing that I would win these shares and we still have an important subject to talk about."

"True, I had even forgotten that, well then what did you want to tell me?"

"I'll be honest with you Matthew, I thought this digital camera should not be released now, but it should still take another 1 year at least for you to improve the camera model to market another."

"Still I have to admit that your vision is better than mine for sales as these cameras seem to be doing well in the market, but I honestly think this is too little for your company Matthew."

"What exactly do you mean by Jake?"

"I fully understand that the camera market was very full these past few years, every country was trying to gain from it, so you just sell your cameras in their stores is a great idea."

"But you have to understand now Matthew is that his company now has become one of the leaders in the world market for digital cameras, they should have just over 10 companies that manufacture digital cameras in the world now."

"And from what I saw your camera is in the top three in quality, so I think you should first increase your production and then sell in more points in the United States and Europe, you have to advertise this better with commercials for the television."

"I'll be honest, if I did not know you I would not even know that this camera was for sale in the market, I did not see any promotion anywhere."

"You have to understand Matthew that you have to take advantage of this rare moment when you are one of the leaders of the world market and let everyone know your brand, so you must make many advertisements because even if you do not sell to everyone, know about your company."

"You have to take advantage of this time when your camera costs a thousand dollars and you have a lot of money to sell to Europe and get everyone to know your business because in the future you will have to sell that camera at a maximum of $ 400."

"At that time you do not have as much appeal to advertise to the whole world and still make a profit, but if people remember your brand they can buy because it will be quality and not very cheap."

Matthew was listening to all this with a twinkle in his eyes, he realized that the years really left him with no ambition, Jake was right, they had to take advantage that they had little competition and win a large part of the market.

And Jake was certain that in the future they would have to lower the price of one camera to be able to sell many, so this was the time to make their company one of the world market leaders.

And Matthew realized that Jake was really thinking hard about it and was not being blind, because Jake suggested and Europe and not Asia that had several companies that dominate the market, Matthew also had to think about investing now.

Just for that idea, he saw that it was worth giving the company's 5 percent share to Jake, and Matthew was sure they would have a lot more opportunities to grow in that market.

"I agree with you Jake, I was being very careful and I was treating this digital camera as one of the products I was selling before, but we have to take that opportunity to gain a piece of that market."

"I'm going to invest in those first months all the money that I receive from profit in advertising and also to increase the production capacity of the company, how many cameras do you think we have to target to sell Jake?"

"It has to be at least 1 million Matthew, at least one million and these cameras will patronize the entire future of your company."

1 million cameras sold, Matthew never thought about that number of sales for cameras of that magnitude and with that high-profit margin, Matthew would be happy if he sold 80,000 cameras in total.

So Matthew could have 24 million profit to invest more in the company, and Matthew had only close to 40 stores selling their cameras across the country, that is to say, that these 40 stores sold 100 cameras on average each.

So if Matthew could have 3000 stores around the world selling his cameras only in the country and Europe with more propaganda they could sell 300,000 cameras in a week at least, so selling 1 million was not just a dream but a reality.

Not to mention that if they sold so many cameras so their profit margin will increase and the cost per camera will drop a lot, so they will only have to gain by investing in this goal, they can get to earn 400 million in profit from all this and increase a lot the production capacity and also the points of sale for the future.

So Matthew can understand why Jake said that this camera could finance the future of the entire company after all this camera will pay for all the investments for the future and still give a lot of profit for the company.

Matthew could never imagine earning more than his company's profit worth in a product only, his company's market value will ultimately exceed 4 billion in value, so the 5 percent of Jake could be worth 200 million in just 1 year.

So Matthew said it was worth giving these shares to Jake after Jake left. Matthew did not hesitate and asked for the first time in more than 10 years a loan for his company putting part of his shares as collateral and began to invest in the future that he wanted.

Jake had no idea that Matthew was going to be that decisive, but it was certainly best for the company, Jake was well aware that the brand of a company sometimes had to be worth more than the profit the company made.

Now Matthew had to invest in increasing the brand value of the company, this could help even in the future negotiation to put their cameras in the handsets of the biggest companies in the future.

After a few days Oliver handed over the document stating that Jake had 5 percent of the shares of Matthew's camera company, Jake was wondering what he could do with it.

After all, now he would have more money to invest if he needed to, but it would be too stupid to borrow a loan from Jake's actions because all his actions always valued a lot in a short time.

So Jake thought it better to expect another investment opportunity with Amazon to invest in the future, not to mention that Jake would earn a dividend fortune by the end of next year with the profits from the sales of that digital camera.

After seeing that Matthew's company was going again on the right path, Jake was only concerned about doing his training, he felt that he was increasing a lot of rambling his skills in basketball after he rose to the level of a college player.

Jake knew it would be difficult, but he did not think it would be so much, fortunately by the end of his high school senior year he still had time to improve his skills a bit, after all, he wanted to get well into college not to be put in the staff when you arrive.

But Jake knew that now the only way to improve his skills beyond constant training was to actually play with players better than him and thus further develop his potential.

But there was hardly anyone like that in high school, this was his last year and Jake was thinking about doing something special, so he thought about being selfish at least for a game and trying to do something special that would mark his career.

As another record, the only record he could get when he wanted now was just one of the most points made in a basketball game, the problem was that Jake did not know exactly what that record was.

So he thought he could only make as many points as he could and of course break that record, so he would again make his mark on youth basketball history.

But he could not forget to try the record with another Triple-Double as well, it would be difficult, but it would give Jake a boost in the next game, so he talked about it with the coach and his teammates.

Everyone was shocked at Jake's thinking, normally no one would ask that to the team before the game and it would just happen naturally, but so they understood that Jake was saying he could do this in any game and was holding on for the team's sake.

So everyone naturally backed Jake's decision and said they would try to help as best they could, this was a game that the team did not even have to care much about the defense because Jake should make more than 60 points on his own if he wanted to break a record.

More than a few days to go, Jake was thinking of training again for the New York marathon in just over a month.

With these points in Resistance and Agility, Jake was much calmer for the next race, of course, it would never be easy to run with so many talented athletes, but Jake had to try if he wanted to win an Olympics.

At the same time as the last time he felt he was easing the first 30 km of the race, he only began to feel tired after the 40 km, and ended more easily the 50 km of training, Jake felt he could even run 60 km if you tried.

But it was not yet time to force the training with the marathon so close, so at least Jake felt he could do it again if he could run the 50 km in 150 minutes then he thought he could run the little more than 42 km of the marathon in less time.

If he ran by taking 30 seconds per km he could finish the race in less than 5 minutes in the final time, of course, Jake knew that it was impossible for him at the moment because so he could achieve at the same time the record of 10 thousand meters.

But if he took 10 seconds per km it seemed possible with a lot of effort, so he would have 7 minutes less in the whole marathon and could even beat the record below 2 hours, these were goals that Jake could try to follow for the next marathons.

The other day he tried first to take 5 seconds per km, so he would take 3 and a half minutes at the end of the marathon, which means he could finish the race in just over 2 hours and 3 minutes which would be the record in almost all the proofs of the world.

That was Jake's goal for now before raising another point on endurance or a skill rank, it seems easy to decrease that time by km, but for runners who run in the limit any second down is a win.

Jake tried to run in that time, but in km 39 he had to stop, the system warned that Jake was at risk of an injury if he continued running, so Jake who was exhausted sat and ate a bar of stamina.

So he felt his energy coming back and his muscles relaxed a little, yet Jake sat still waiting, after all, what Jake was most afraid of was an injury, no matter how small.

Part of it was because Jake had a trauma of being a long time without walking, Jake felt that if he stayed too long without walking he would wake up from a dream and still be in a wheelchair, even if he knew it would not happen, he could not take this fear out of your heart.

Another simple point was that he had many things to do next week and an injury would ruin everyone's plan, so Jake sat there for a few minutes until he felt safe getting up again and going home.

This time he did not feel leg pain after walking, it was because this time he sat down immediately after the system gave the warning and also ate a bar of stamina that relaxes the muscles a little.

Even so, Jake was brave and tried again the other day, this time he did 4 seconds less per minute, so he managed to run the 43 km before he stopped exhausted.

It was not because of any system warnings, but because he felt he could not end anyway, so he at least felt he could finish the marathon, he would finish in 2 hours and 3 minutes and 40 seconds, already a great time for any marathon in the world.

It was the limit Jake thought he could now after increasing a point in Resistance and a point in agility, so Jake understood that he should have been able to improve his skills before the reward and not after, otherwise the improvements would be more apparent.

That was better for Jake because after that next marathon finish he could be able to raise those skills again with the reward for beating a major and thus getting more confident for the Olympics next year.

Jake knew he was more excited now about athletics than basketball, first because he loved basketball and running in so much then because he was clearly seeing the improvement in athletics now.

He was close to winning another major marathon and then it would be an Olympiad, then he could try something else for athletics yet, but in basketball, he had only the national championship that was harder to beat.

Then it was college, and only after he'd get the most out of the basketball that was the NBA, it was normal that what was nearer to conquer would cheer him up, not that he was not happy with basketball as well.

But now Jake had to think about the next game where he was trying to break a record, Jake wanted to at least make 80 points because then he would feel like it really was a record.

The days passed quickly and the day of the second game of the state championship arrived, this was to be an ordinary game, but as Jake was thinking about breaking a record the whole team was excited.

It was incredible that after that interview on the television nobody remembered that Jake had also won a marathon, it shows how rare this situation was and that few people cared about the marathon at that time.

This was shown in Jake's interview with Chloe, even though he has just won a 16-year-old the Chicago major marathon reporter in the middle of the interview changed the subject to basketball.

It was as if the reporter was more interested in the fact that Jake was the MVP of his basketball team than with him having won a marathon, many were like that at the time.

Jake woke up early that day and ate Eva's breakfast fondly, she was happy to spend that time with Jake even if it was only a few hours in the week that they spent together.

Even Jake was getting used to seeing his mother for a short time in the week, of course, Jake would never allow it to be the same as in his past life, he accepted it well because Eva was happy in the restaurant with Anna.

So Jake packed his things and went to the place of the game when he arrived everyone was more relaxed than normal, after all, today's game for them was not about winning more, but about how many they would win.

Jake's luck was acting as usual and the team was on the same level as his first opponent, so Jake would have less difficulty in winning that game, his opponents were preparing tactics for this game that would be difficult for them.

Jake felt sorry that Eric was not in the stands, in fact, few reporters who as soon as Eric thought that all the Elite team game could have anything were there.

In fact Jake was not sure that he could get this record as his teammates said, he just warned his teammates before because today he would have to make several plays alone without passing the ball so he thought he had to warn before.

As he wanted to try to make a triple-double was also agreed that in the first period he would try to get the 10 assists as well, and as much steal as possible, before the opponents lose their will to play.

The opposing team was called Penguins and it was very balanced, only PG Maddox was the team's greatest standout, the others had the same level of skill as the state championship, but they could not get more than that.

After a few minutes the game began, Mark went up more than all and won the ball possession for the Elite team, Mark soon passed the ball to Jake, Jake advanced and passed the ball to David before the three-point line.

David passed the ball to Carter who was open on the right and Carter held the ball for a while, when the defense came to press Carter passed the ball to Jake who was further behind, Jake passed the ball to Harrison who was free on the left and Harrison tried the mid-range shot to make 2 points for the Elite team.

Maddox received the ball to start an attack for his team, he advanced until after the middle of the court and passed the ball of the SG of his team, the SG that received advanced to the attack and passed the ball farther left for the PF your team.

The PF felt Carter coming on the mark and passed to the SF from the right who tried the mid-range shot to make 2 points for the Penguins team and get the tie in the game.

As the Penguins team made the move Jake was watching to be able to steal as fast as possible, Jake picked up the ball and began to organize another attack for the Elite team, after passing through the middle of the block he passed to Harrison on the left.

Harrison got the ball and tried to overpower the opponent, seeing that he could not Harrison passed to Mark who was in the inner area, Mark received the ball passed to Jake again, Jake received the ball and passed to Carter who was free on the right.

Carter who received the ball already made the mid-range shot to make 2 more points for the Elite team, so far it seemed like a game like everyone else, the Elite team passed the ball and tried to make the points and the opponent did the same, but all the plays ended with an assist from Jake in that first period.

After a few plays Maddox received the ball to organize another attack for his team, after passing through the middle of the court Maddox passed the ball to the SG of his team that was on the left, SG advanced a little and passed the ball to the PF of your team.

The PF tried to pass through Carter and saw that he could not and was prepared to pass the ball, but Jake who was following the ball made a steal in the ball that was with the opponent PF, the ball was left for Harrison who advanced to the attack calmly.

Before the middle of the court Harrison passed the ball to Jake who continued to advance, Jake went up to the three-point line and passed to Mark who just turned and did the layup to make 2 more points for the Elite team.

When Jake made the first steal he already had 6 assists in the game and not a point, so when the first period ended Jake had 4 points and 10 assists along with 4 more steal that he got in 6 plays of the opposing team.

With the first period, so the opponents were thinking maybe that Jake was trying to score fewer points in the same game, the Elite team was 8 points clear in that period.

At the beginning of the second period Jake advanced until after the middle of the court and passed the ball to David, David advanced and passed the ball to Carter who was further ahead, Carter passed the ball back to Jake who was out of the line of three points , Jake tried the shot from outside to make 3 more points for his team.

Maddox received the ball and tried another attack for his team, after the line of three points he passed to the SG of his team, SG made a feint over David and can pass by David after the SG passed by David, Jake who was on the roof made the steal and got the ball.

Jake advanced in speed and the defense of the Penguins team can not keep up so Jake kept running until finishing the play with a Slam Dunk to make 2 more points for the Elite team.

And Jake continued like this until the end of the second period, Jake made 31 more points for his team and he got the 10 steals, so Jake had 35 points in the game so far, his teammates were impressed when they saw what Jake had done the Triple Double still in the second period of play.

But despite that Jake allowed Maddox to score 10 points in the game, in five plays he tried to steal the opponent's PG ran out of defense and can make the points easily, so it was not something Jake could do with the better teams.

Even though it would be harder than he thought to do 100 points in a game like that this was to be expected because he had only 32 minutes in total such a game and Jake still wanted to try the Triple Double along with his record.

In the third period Jake kept trying to score points, he made 25 attempts from the outside, 21 came in and Jake had made an incredible 46 points in the third period, so Jake had 81 points in today's game after the end of the third period.

The Elite team had a 42-point advantage in the game and this was because the team's defense today was more relaxed with Jake making so many points, after understanding what was happening the Penguins team totally discouraged and became practically an expectant in the game.

In the last period, Jake scored 42 points and made a total of 123 points in the entire game, the Elite team won with a 70-point lead and all Jake's teammates celebrated as if they had won the national championship.

Jake was very happy with that as well, he felt he could have overstated, but he did not know what was the record for high school players so he had to do his utmost, of course, this was because he even tried the Triple Double together making 10 assists otherwise he could make 30 more points in total.

Jake made 36 attempts from the outside and hit 30 of them, so he 90 points in the game with shots from outside, an average of 3.8 points per minute which is not the maximum he could do.

The reporters were very happy and interviewed Jake with great joy, they knew that going to the Elite team games one day could give some result, this was certainly a record, even if it was not the game with more points was in the top 5 with assurance.

The good thing about a game like that was that it increased one player's average points in the year, Jake had an average of 28 points per game and now must have increased a lot with that game, his state championship average was at least 75 points per game.

After that Jake thanked his teammates and went to talk to the opposing players, all were well with it and although they did not like to lose at least they were happy to see an incredible record being made.

Jake knew that his opponents made it a lot easier for him in the last two periods of play, not pushing him too hard in defense and also not making too many fouls so he could not score more points in the game.

In fact, Jake did not know but he did not have the record of most points made in a game so far, in college basketball in the '50s a player made 113 points, Jake was remembering a piece of news he read in 2012 where a player college students scored 138 points in one game.

But Jake was now in 1995, so he was far from 2012 yet, at university he could try to break that record again with more game time, yet without the internet people just remembered Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point record.

But that record was far more impressive than Jake's 123 points because even if an NBA game had more time, the opponents were much more difficult and the game was much more tiring.

Jake still had a lot to improve in another 5 years to get the chance to do that many points, but nowadays this was impossible even with another 5 years Jake still thought it was impossible for him to reach that level even with the help of the system.

After that Jake went home happy and satisfied, he had achieved a difficult thing and a difficult goal in a player's life, so he was much more motivated to reach the NBA and improve even more.

In fact Jake had heard of a 100-point curse in his past life, people who could make 100 plus points in a game ended up not playing for the NBA in their careers, so he was more than willing to do away with it.

Jake did not forget to call his mother to tell him about the victory and also about the record, Eva was very happy with the news about the victory, but she could not even know how to react by listening to Jake's record.

After all, it was something that nobody talked about much, but as Jake was happy she was happy too, so Jake can rest well after a game like that.

But the other morning Jake heard a piece of news that made him sad, that he had not been able to beat the record for more points made in a single game in high school, Eric was the one who had heard this from his fellow reporters and called to warn Jake about this.

The record was for Danny Heater and it was in 1960, it was a record with 135 points in 32 minutes, Jake thought it was incredible he had a triple Double, but Heater had done 7 assists and 32 rebounds in the same game, which was more incredible for Jake.

If Jake had not tried to keep Triple Double making 10 assists he could have made at least another 30 points in the first period, but now it was too late to complain, yet it was still an incredible record.

Jake thanked Eric for warning him otherwise he could have been ashamed, fortunately, he told his mother that he had just broken a record and did not say he was the one who had the most points.

Now Jake thought it was a good idea to forget about it, after all, he was very selfish in this game and should not try again.

At school no one else commented on this, Jake was a little sad because this was a private school that was more focused on studies, so people cared more to get good grades than what was happening in the sport.

Of course, at this point Jake was very respected for having the highest grade in the class, now they could say that Jake was the best student of the school with his perfect grades in the last year and still contributing with titles in the school basketball team.

Joseph who understood more about basketball congratulated Jake a lot on this incredible record since he started dating Liza and still with the university coming they were less time getting together.

Jake was also very busy with business, basketball, athletics, and his mother who thought it normal for Joseph to be busy too, but Jake did not know Joseph did not feel the same way.

When they met the two were only 10 years old, Jake liked Joseph because he was very simple like him and had no friends and even being rich did not care about the money he had.

But Jake forgot that in fact Joseph was still 10 years old at the time and was alone for not having friends, so he looked like that when the years went by as normally happens when he grows older Joseph's personality also began to change.

And Jake was still the same because his mentality was over 40 and would not change anymore, so after 6 years of friendship much changed for Joseph, he became aware that his family was rich and what it meant to have money.

Before his friends were all selfish and so the money was bad for Joseph, but he was still young at that time and forgot everything, so Joseph sought to be the best student in the room and also to lose weight to look like Jake.

After Joseph slimmed down and his grades improved and he still got a girlfriend he was proud to be better than Jake as his family was richer then Matthew and Oliver told Joseph that Jake had saved his family company with business tips.

Also, Jake was getting acquainted with basketball and was earning his own money with effort, so Joseph's pride became envious of his friend's success, Jake was still more handsome, had better grades, was better at business and saved the company from Joseph's family.

And now Joseph learned that Jake helped the company a lot to make a lot of money and they could raise the company's worth by more than 10 times in a few years, so Matthew had given 5 percent of the company to Jake.

So Joseph's envy only increased, Jake was playing basketball and doing business while he was the best student in the class, while Joseph was still having to stop seeing Liza just to be able to study harder to get a better grade.

Even though he still liked Jake and still considered himself a friend of his, he was grateful that he helped his family's company, he supported his grandfather's decision to give 5 percent of Jake's stock.

Oliver, who was his father, perceived this very well, but he thought it was normal for Joseph, who was in his teens, all of which could help Joseph build his personality and character more by the time he grew up.

So Oliver thought it was important to choose who was his son's friend because it all influenced a person's personality as he grew up, and Jake was the best friend Joseph could have.

That's because even though Joseph was jealous of Jake he was still a lot better than most of his age, but with Jake as a comparison he could be humble even with all that, and Oliver thought that humility was very important for a man to have.

After Jake went to the basketball team's training, he told everyone on the team that he had not broken the record and everyone was a bit disappointed as he was, so everyone asked what Jake would do.

And so Jake said that he would forget about this subject that had not worked, but his companions did not agree with him if Jake had put as his goal to break this record it was better that he could do it.

So everyone said they agreed that he had to try again to be worth it, even coach Mike and Liza weighed the same, so Jake would put the Elite team's name back in history, even the school president agreed with this when he heard that Jake almost got in last game.

Even Eric said that if Jake was to try again he would go to the game to register all this it was rare that a player could have confidence in breaking a record of this and to plan before a game, usually this was an accident and sometimes even if the player stayed alone on the court for 32 minutes could not make more than 135 points.

So Jake agreed that he would try one more time, he would have just one more chance as it was almost impossible for something like that to happen in a semi-final or state championship final, the national championship was even harder to come by.

While I thought Matthew had gotten more comrades across the country and in Europe too, with Matthew guaranteeing that these companies would not lose money selling their cameras, his reputation helped a lot.

Matthew had also increased production at his factory, so he was prepared to sell 1 million digital cameras if customers wanted to buy, so the company's stock market appreciated the company's good income outlook.

Matthew thought of going to Asia too, but Jake was against it, he thought it was not good for competitors to take notice of the company before they sold too much and were more entrenched in the digital camera market.

The commercials were also being planned to go to television, Jake wanted to help in the commercial, but gave up when he learned that Matthew's company had a department specialized in that, this was to be expected of a company that was more than 30 years in the market.

Jake had no news of Emily as well, it was normal for him to be slow to find someone like that and Jake gave him more than 2 months of time, so Jake wanted to make sure this business worked out fine.

The thing that worried Jake more now was Tiffany and Clara that did not give any news, as Jake had not been able to speak with Tiffany after returning from Chicago he tried to speak with Clara and also it did not obtain anything.

So the two did not know that Jake had nearly broken a record, yet it was an incredible feat that could get some attention for his sponsors as John and Alan used for their company.

But now Jake could not do anything about it as no one asked for his help, besides, Jake was busy thinking about the best way to break that record in a week, and he still had to train for the next marathon.

So in the week Jake continued his racing training, yet he could not do the 50km of training by taking the 4 seconds per km, but as soon as he could, he could consider himself ready for the marathon.

After a few days, Jake was still in doubt as he could get the Triple Double and makeover 135 points in the next game while he was thinking about that Mark had the solution and came to talk to him.

"Jake, I heard you have a hard time thinking about how to get Triple Double and make the necessary points, you know very well what you need to do, you do not have to have any regard for me."

"I do not know what you're talking about Mark, I consider you all, but I'm not doing anything special to you."

"It's okay, everyone on the team knows you are like that, I also think as a captain it's cool that you consider the well-being of all your teammates, but in this game, you have to be selfish if you want to achieve that record."

Mark was right, actually long ago Jake was being considered with Mark, but he thought his teammates had not realized this since Jake got over 1.85 m with his many training games it was obvious that he could always dispute and even win Mark's rebound.

But Mark always helped a lot with the rebounds in several games that the team needed, and when it was Jake who missed the shots outside or mid-range Mark was the one who helped the team not to lose any attack.

In addition, Jake trained a while with Mark and learned the Center's position with him, so just to further improve his achievements he did not think he needed to dispute the rebounds with Mark.

But in this game, Jake needed an easier triple-double in which he scored several points, so even though it was not easy he could be like that without needing 10 assists in the game and could attack in all the plays.

This was possible because Mark and Carter shared almost all of the team's defensive and offensive rebounds, and yet Mark had a medley of more than 9 rebounds per game, Carter averaged 5 rebounds per game.

"Okay then Mark, thanks so much for this, but only for this game, then we'll get back to normal."

So Jake was quieter after resolving this, he would not make the 10 assists and would try to score in all attacks if Jake could count on the luck he could even miss fewer shots from outside and less mid-range shots as well.

But Jake learned that luck has no fundamental performance when doing more than 20 shots per game, otherwise it would be obvious that Jake had something different in every game, but at least in this game he wanted his luck to help more points.

While Jake was doing his training for the game Emily called him saying that he needed to talk to him about something important, so Jake was excited to think that Emily had managed to find who he was looking for.

They met as always in a separate restaurant because these deals were still a secret from Eva, when Jake got there they greeted each other, but the subject was not what Jake expected.

"Hi Jake, I'm sorry to call you urgently while you were busy training, but I needed to talk to you."

"No problem, so you managed to find who I was looking for?"

"Unfortunately not yet, but in a few weeks I will have this information for you, the subject has to do with my father and other businessmen."

So Jake was disappointed in this, he was anxious to do business with Jeff Bezos, it was like Jake thought that the longer it took him the more chance of going it wrong was, while Jeff had not yet sold stock Jake knew he could convince him.

"You do not need to be so sad so I think something good for you, I always tell my father about working for you, but whenever we talk to the businessmen who are my father's friends we speak that I work in a company the which is true."

"So I told you that you had made an investment and had a return of several times the amount invested, so all of them were interested in investing in a technology company, but were afraid of losing a lot of money."

"But they did not want to go into big investment companies for fear of being cheated, so knowing that I whom they knew worked in an investment company was working with investments they wanted to invest in the company."

"But as the company is practically your investments I wanted to know what you think of it."

This was really unexpected for Jake, he just created this company to take care of his own investments, after all, he was a minor and the values were high for a common business, so a company could help Jake better control his investments and pay taxes.

But he never really expected the company to receive investments from other people, even when he suggested that Matthew, Oliver, Clara, and Tiffany make the investments, either they could do it on their own or find a really specialized company.

Of course, he could not deny that with his future knowledge he could easily indicate which investments were right for these companies, now was a great example, there were several companies that were valuing themselves in the stock market because of the internet.

But Jake knew exactly which companies would have the best returns and when stocks would have the biggest declines, some companies would fall in value in 2000 and then recover in a few years.

Cisco would be a company that would have a huge fall in stocks, as a large company would recover, but it would never reach its peak again and would only recover in more than 15 years.

Other companies like Microsoft and Apple would have losses and recover and earn much more in more than 10 years, so it would be worth investing a few million in stocks to have a millionaire retirement.

But Jake thought it was not worth waiting that long, after 10 years he would earn that money from NBA salaries, so he invested in Cisco to make a lot of money and then sell it all.

In contrast, it had Amazon that it would be one of the largest companies in the world in more than 15 years, so it would invest little and earn a lot, not to mention that more companies like Amazon would still exist in the future to invest.

But for someone who did not come from the future as he companies like Cisco were too risky if he did not know the right time to sell, and companies like Amazon would only be recommended for those who have little money to invest.

But Jake had a problem doing this, it was that companies like Amazon he wanted to invest as much as possible in a short time, these companies Jake would never recommend to others, but in a few dozen years the people who invested in the company would complain to see Jake billionaire that he did not recommend this company to them.

So Jake said what he was thinking to Emily with other words and Emily just smiled as she answered him.

"You do not have to worry about it, Jake, these people just want to work with your company for a few years at the most, no one wants to risk losing money so you can just help them make lots of money and they will not complain."

"So I agree, but I want 10 percent of their investment profits to be worth my time to think of the best investments for them and once a group comes in we will not accept anyone else."

"Alright, I'll tell them about it."

"In addition, we will have to separate the company into their accounts, my personal investments and the investments of these entrepreneurs, and you can not tell them about the companies that I am investing separately."

"You can count on my ethics, I will not talk about it."

"You've done a good job, Emily, hire people to always check the stocks we're investing in and focus on finding Jeff Bezos for me, I was already thinking about it, you're going to get 1 percent of the profits from all of that company's business, you deserve it and work harder for it."

"Thank you so much, Jake, I'll do my best."

Emily was well aware of how good it was to get 1 percent of the profits of an investment firm like these because she would not use any penny of her own money to invest and still make a living out of it.

Jake, for example, invested $ 250,000 a few years ago and now earned more than $ 1 million, she would get $ 10,000 to invest nothing, and that was just the beginning, now Jake still had that money invested if he earned 5 times more she would earn 50 thousand this time.

In addition to the salary she already earns that is little now, but Jake said that it would increase a lot in a few years because all the money that Jake wins he invests again and she also did not have much to do a few years ago.

So after a few days, Emily warned Jake about the investment information, 23 business owners who were friends of his father would invest in stocks and let the company take care of their investments, Emily again asked the people who were known to Jake if anyone wanted to invest.

But no one showed interest again, not because they did not trust Jake, but rather because they had to invest in their own companies, Matthew even had until he got a loan to invest in his own company.

Still, Jake was surprised that so many entrepreneurs were investing in it, especially when he heard the value that these 23 entrepreneurs would invest, 30 million dollars, was much more than Jake initially thought.

He felt bad for having charged 10 percent of the profits, of course, some people would invest more like Emily's father who would invest 4 million dollars, and he promised that half of the profits would go to Emily.

Jake asked Emily to explain exactly that some could lose something in a few years more than 15 years would gain much more while some would earn a lot and not lose anything in a few years.

To earn more in more than 15 years or to earn less in a few years, everyone obviously chose to earn a lot in a few years, many of these people were old and wanted to have the money in a short time and were investing only because they saw that they had much to gain from the internet.

Nobody wanted to lose money even if it was to recover after more than a decade, not to mention that nobody believed that Jake could predict the market in so many years ahead, was what Jake really expected.

So Jake told Emily to still invest everything in Cisco stock, after all, it was the most profitable company and Jake knew the exact time to sell the stock, in other companies the gain was smaller and Jake did not remember when it was the best time to sell.

Even so, Jake thought this was the best time to invest in Cisco, the company would still appreciate nearly 20 times before the bubble burst, so that 30 million could become more than 600 million dollars.

Also, Jake thought that 30 million was too much to invest carelessly after all could even have a large part of a smaller company and interfere with their moves, Cisco would still not care about those 30 million now.

Jake might even say that these investors could have 40 times that amount in profit, Emily would certainly be a millionaire if he was entitled to half of her father's profits, so Jake wanted everything to be on a notary's record.

Because if he earned 10 percent of that value he would even be rich just standing there waiting for everything, even so, Jake was still more focused on doing this deal with Jeff Bezos because, in the long run, it would certainly be more money.

Too bad their friends did not want to invest now, that would be their last chance to make a lot of money on that investment, glad that Jake still knew more profitable investments in the future.

But nothing would be like that to earn 40 times the value invested in 5 years only, only if they try to invest in a company like Amazon after opening and waiting for more than 10 years to receive the investment.

But even Jake would not do anything like that, only if he did not really need the money by that time, so it might be worth it.

After leaving everything in the hands of Emily in the company they returned to concentrate on their training, marathon training would take time to see some result, but in basketball, he was just preparing for the challenge in a few more days.

At least now Jake knew how many points he had to make to break that record, he thought he would not have another chance to do it and now that he has again received the confidence of his coach and his teammates he should be able to break that record.

When Jake told Eva that he was trying to break that record again, Eva could not know how important this was, but she felt Jake was very serious and focused on it so at least she encouraged Jake by saying that he would succeed.

While Eva talked about this with Anna who also did not understand much about basketball Lola ended up hearing about it and was impressed, she was someone who understood well of basketball of so much to hear it of the young people who lived in its street.

So she had already been impressed with Jake winning the MVP award in the national championship and having done Triple-Double in several games, she knew how difficult it was against a weaker opponent.

So hearing that Jake would try to score more than 135 points, she honestly thought it was impossible, many young people on the street would show up when they scored 40 points in a game and said their goal was to score 50 points in a game.

So making more than 100 points was impossible for Lola, even the pros could not do it, but as she listened to the conversation she heard that Jake had already scored 123 points in the last game trying to break that record and would try to get it this time.

So Lola could no longer doubt that Jake could be capable of this, even more, she heard that this was an important moment for Jake, so she told Eva and Anna that she wanted to go to that game to cheer for Jake.

She was really curious to know if Jake could actually do this and also wanted to be there to cheer for Jake in the game, she was the one who was most unoccupied sometimes in the restaurant, Eva and Anna knew Lola liked Jake and how it was Jake's game, they let her make this surprise.

And so the days went by quickly and soon came the day of Jake's game, it was the third game of the state championship and everyone was more excited about this game, Jake woke up very early in the morning and ate his breakfast made by Eva.

Eva did not tell Jake even after he left that Lola would come to her game, she knew that even though Jake was more mature for his age since always he always was happy when someone known would go to a game of it.

When Jake arrived at the game site, everyone had arrived and was as relaxed as in the last game, Harrison himself said it would be good if Jake could try to break a record in every game, so they would be calmer.

Of course, everyone knew that this would be true until the state championship final, then they would have to have increasingly difficult games, so in this game, they would have to see if Jake could break his record.

The opposing team also had no players who could make a difference in today's game, plus everyone knew what Jake did in the last game and felt that it could be repeated in today's game, so the PG of that team was the most discouraged for having to defend against Jake.

Jake looked at the bleachers and saw that there were a lot more reporters for this game, Eric had also come as he had promised so Jake took another look at the bleachers and saw that Lola had also come to see this game.

Jake was happy about this, he was glad that someone he knew was in a game so important to him, Eva was sure he liked things like that.

So after a while the game started, Mark took possession of the ball to his team and passed it to Jake further back, Jake advanced to make the first attack for the Elite team in that game.

Jake passed the ball to David who was ahead, David advanced until after the line of three points and passed to Carter, later on, Carter held the ball for a while and passed back to Jake who was behind.

Jake got the ball behind the three-point line and tried the shot from outside to make the first 3 points for him and the Elite team, so the opposing team started the first attack of the game a little apprehensive, they did not know if it was just a normal attack or if Jake was trying to make over 100 points again.

So they made the move until it fell into the hands of the SF team that with space made the mid-range shot to make the first two points for their team, they realized that the Elite team seemed to be giving even more space for the play to end fast.

So Jake received the ball and advanced quickly to the attack, as everyone knew that Jake had to try to break this record they had to make the moves as quickly as possible to have more attacks in the game.

In the defense they could not give so much freedom to the opponent because Jake had to try to do 10 steals to obtain a triple Double also, so Elite team advanced quickly and the ball was passed to Jake that did another shot from outside to do 3 more points for the Elite team.

So the opposing team saw that something might actually be happening, but they could not do anything about it, they advanced quickly too and tried the mid-range shot with SG, but the ball did not go in and Jake was the one who went up to get the rebound.

So Mark, who saw this, knew he was right about what he said, so even if he wanted to play that rebound with Jake even though he was taller he would have lost that ball, so Jake was really letting the rebound for him and Carter.

At least the defenders in the offensive rebounds Mark and Carter were still the best positioned to take the rebound, yet Jake was not rushing and even if the team attacked quickly he expected everyone to position themselves before attacking.

After all, this was the third game of the state championship and they would have to respect their opponents if they did not want to risk being defeated.

After more than half of the first period to have passed Jake had made 10 attempts to shoot from outside and hit 9 of them, so he had 27 points in that period already, it seemed that his request worked and his luck was working harder today.

The opposing team had only 14 points so far losing 2 attacks that Jake took the defensive rebound, in that attack they were attacking quickly because they were following the pace of the Elite team, the SF of the opposing team passed the ball back to the PG.

But Jake anticipated and intercepted the ball making the first steal in the game, Jake immediately advanced to using his speed left the defenders of the opposing team behind and finished the play, making a dunk to make 2 more points in the game.

So the game continued and the first period ended and the Elite team was winning with 50 points against 20 only of the opposing team and Jake had made all the points, he tried 19 shots from outside and 16 entered so Jake still had a high average of the hit.

Even the opponents were impressed with this was almost 3 attempts to shoot from outside per minute, of course, this was possible only because in the three attempts he missed Mark took the rebound and passed it again.
