The Canadian Contrarian

Brayden R. Sutton has been a contrarian, independent thinking capitalist since he was a kid.  He left home at 15 to get a “leg-up” on the world, and found himself managing a retail computer store and a staff of 4 by the time he was 18 years old.  That led him to a senior IT role in Calgary, Alberta with both Hewlett Packard and Suncor Energy as an independent contractor, all before his 20th birthday.  Brayden invested wisely early on, and bought his first piece of real estate in a booming Calgary market at 20 years old directly from the developer.  He sold the finished property less than 13 months after the purchase for more than an 80% return on investment.  Realizing early on that money is made in selling, not buying; he immediately went back into cash sensing a real estate “peak”, and waited for the next opportunity to present itself.

That same year, he took the capital and jumped into the worlds equity and commodity markets to take advantage of the rise in the price of oil and metals.  Seeing much success early on; he was instantly hooked – he’d found his passion.  Brayden now trades stocks, options and commodities every morning in the comfort of his home office, in the beautiful Fraser Valley of British Columbia.

He founded B. R. Sutton Holdings in 2007 and has been increasing it’s asset size steadily through these turbulent times.

When not in the office, he can be found on one of BC’s beautiful golf courses, travelling, riding motorcycles, reading a good book, or hanging out with his wife and their three kids.  He figures life’s too short to waste; so live with enthusiasm, learn, love and make every hour count
