Profile of Shun Hirose (Hirose Shun)

Actor and investor, the “Investor Actor.” Active on stage and in film both domestically and internationally, he started investing to break the current situation where acting alone cannot sustain him, studied under instructor Kojirō, a senior from Waseda University’s theater research group, and became his top disciple. He also updates his own trading blog energetically day and night. His specialties are swing trading using a 1-hour chart and making desserts.

Deciding to Earn through Investment to Continue Acting

Hirose's main job is acting, but that income alone is not enough to live on, so he toiled at part-time jobs to make ends meet. However, the more he performed, the busier he got, and the busier he became the less time he could work part-time, which naturally reduced his income—a vicious cycle. At that moment, he looked for something that could earn money with a small amount of capital, and FX caught his eye. He then decided to live a side business lifestyle of earning money for living costs through FX while continuing to act and pursue his passions.
