From Surgeon Dreams to Wealth Creation: The Inspiring Journey of Philip Chan

3 min read

The Deep Wealth Podcast and post-exit entrepreneur Jeffrey Feldberg dives into the amazing journey of Philip Jayhawk Chan. Philip is the President and CEO of Lightspeed Investing who brings a fresh take on finance and investing.

Philip’s journey began with dreams of becoming a surgeon. But life had other plans. He faced burnout and disillusionment in the medical field. This led him to a surprising discovery: the power of Lightspeed Investing.

Philip didn’t just give up on his dreams. He pivoted. He transformed his career, diving deep into the world of finance. His story is a lesson in resilience and adaptability. That’s something every entrepreneur can relate to.

The Power of Relationships

One of Philip’s key messages is the importance of relationships. He says, “At the end of the day, we are all in the people business.” Whether you’re shaking hands with Apple or a local business, it’s all about the people involved.

Philip’s success didn’t happen overnight. He surrounded himself with mentors and immersed himself in high-caliber rooms.

Philip originally aspired to be a surgeon, but his experience in the medical field left him feeling burnt out and disillusioned. “Yes, I could be making half a million dollars plus minus as a guaranteed annual salary. But the exchange is I would be stuck in the OR rooms pretty much all day, every day,” Philip shared. He decided to pivot to entrepreneurship to find the financial freedom he desired.

The Lightspeed Investing Formula

Philip’s journey led him to found Lightspeed Investing. The firm offers a proprietary trading education system based on the strategies used by high net worth individuals. “We manage money successfully for high net worth individuals in the past 15 years,” Philip explained. The firm’s focus is on alternative investments, specifically derivatives, futures, and commodities.’

So, what exactly is Lightspeed Investing? It’s a proprietary trading education system. Philip and his team teach clients the skill sets they’ve used for 15 years. They focus on alternative investments like futures and commodity financial markets.

Philip explains, “We would teach you the skill sets where you can have a supplemental income to grow and scale your business without relying on sales.” This approach offers a new way for business owners to leverage their assets.

### The Secret Sauce

What sets Lightspeed Investing apart? It’s their focus on technical analysis. Philip shares, “Everything you need to be successful is in the charts in front of you.” This isn’t about guessing or gambling. It’s about recognizing patterns and making informed decisions.

What’s fascinating about Philip’s approach is his emphasis on technical analysis rather than fundamental analysis. “Everything you need to be successful is in the charts in front of you,” Philip stated. He highlighted the importance of pattern recognition and proprietary indicators in making informed investment decisions.

Philip’s team uses a range of factors: candlestick patterns, proprietary indicators, volume, and more. They’ve honed this system over a decade. This takes the guesswork out of trading and provides a structured approach to investing.

### Addressing Fears and Misconceptions

Philip acknowledges that many people see trading as risky or like gambling. But he emphasizes, “Retail traders lose money because they have no fricking clue what’s going on.” With the right knowledge and tools, you can navigate these markets with confidence.

Philip was quick to debunk the myth that investing in derivatives is a get-rich-quick scheme. “Don’t look into this if you’re not willing to commit to learning something. Don’t look into this if you’re not willing to put the time in, to better your life and your family,” he cautioned. The system requires discipline and a willingness to learn, but the rewards can be substantial.

For those worried about the commitment, Philip has solutions. “We can teach and train your team members,” he says. This allows business owners to focus on their core operations while still benefiting from Lightspeed Investing.

Success Stories

Philip’s methods aren’t just theoretical. They’ve transformed lives. One client, a real estate investor, went from making $60,000 a year to potentially earning $200,000 a month. That’s the power of the Lightspeed Investing system.

Philip breaks down the process into manageable steps. First, clients practice in a simulated environment. This helps them gain confidence and skill without financial risk. Only then do they move to live trading. This disciplined approach ensures success and minimizes risk.

What’s the endgame for Philip? It’s not just about making money. It’s about creating financial freedom and independence. He wants to change lives, one trade at a time.

Philip’s journey from aspiring surgeon to financial expert is inspiring. It shows that with the right mindset, relationships, and tools, anyone can achieve their dreams. Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, there’s something to learn from Philip’s story.

Final Thoughts

As we wrap up this episode, Philip’s advice rings clear: “If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, go together.” Embrace relationships, invest in yourself, and be open to new opportunities. Your success might be just one connection away.

To sum it up, Philip Chan’s journey from aspiring surgeon to investment mogul offers invaluable lessons for anyone looking to achieve financial freedom. His emphasis on mentorship, disciplined learning, and the power of technical analysis provides a clear roadmap for success. If you’re willing to put in the work, the rewards can be life-changing.
