Volunteer Story｜Lucía Hernández

Occupation: Retired Housewife | Location: Guadalajara, Mexico

Hello everyone, I’m Lucía Hernández, 65 years old, from Guadalajara, Mexico. I’ve been retired for several years now, living a quiet and simple life. My biggest hobbies are gardening at home, cooking, and video chatting with my children.If you had told me a year ago that “AI can help you manage your money,” I definitely wouldn’t have believed it. But today, I want to share a personal story that changed my view completely.
In 2024, I learned about the AFE AI 3.0 global public beta through my son, who works at a bank. He encouraged me to give it a try, saying the system was especially suitable for people like me, those without financial knowledge, but who want to preserve and grow their savings.So, I decided to invest $50,000 from my life savings and chose the most conservative option: the “Principal Protection Mode,” which ensures the safety of the principal while aiming for steady returns.The system performed very steadily in the first few months. The monthly returns were significantly better than what I would get from a fixed deposit at the bank, and I could clearly see the daily performance of my funds through the mobile app, which gave me a great sense of security.
By the fourth month, I began to get curious about the “Compounding Mode.” My son explained that although this strategy carried slightly more risk, the AI would work to maximize returns while still managing risk carefully. I decided to switch from principal protection to the compounding strategy.
That decision became a turning point in my year.In the months that followed, my account started growing at a noticeably faster pace. Even though I didn’t make any manual adjustments, each time I opened the app and saw the performance curve rising steadily, I felt a sense of hope and satisfaction.By the end of the year, my account had grown from $50,000 to $160,000.
As a retired older woman with no professional background and little understanding of English, I never imagined I could take part in something like this. But AFE AI 3.0 showed me that technology isn’t cold or distant it can be gentle, supportive, and truly designed to help everyday people like me protect our retirement savings, while also earning a little extra with peace of mind.
More importantly, it reminded me that even at my age, I can still make my own decisions, learn new things, and keep up with the times.It turns out, it’s never too late to change.
