<h4>Chapter 188 A Risky Investment That Will Make It Right 2</h4>


    "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 yer."


    "But he’s not an ordinary yer, but the captain of his high school basketball team who was the national championship championst year."


    "And there is more, Jake here was the MVP of thest 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 yer 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 sses 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 yer 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 ne 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 televisionmercial, 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 L 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 inte made all the information more essible 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 rxed 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 ce 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 theirst year and they were both good yers 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 receiveints 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 ying Jake was the one who had to decorate several tactics and ys 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 rmendation 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 thest 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 finallye back with the investment report that Jake had asked for in more actionsst 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 hispany, but for now you have to tell me if this person has already opened apany and what the current value of thepany, 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’spany 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 thepany 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 apany in Seattle, look for him for me and try to find him before the end of the year."


    "He has apany that seeks to make a profit on the inte, just like Cisco, but since thatpany 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 hispany because even if I invest little I can earn a lot in the future."


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


    "I’m counting on you, Emily."


    Amazon was one of the biggestpanies 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 ept it, so it was better to be discreet and try to get at least 20 percent of thepany.


    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 yer, he would not have to worry about ack of money on a million-dor sry, but now was the best time to invest.
