Every aspiring investor should listen to this short video.

The first place to start in any endeavor is to start with building your knowledge base. This video gets you on track with investments.

We live in a society that most are looking for a miracle solution that is the “key” to success. People want a shortcut for everything, but in reality, there is no magic elixir. Educating yourself is the best tool to reach your goals. Books abound to help you. And, now with the internet, videos such as this, are right at your fingertips. 

Take advantage of the wealth of information right at your fingertips! Peter Lynch’s book”One Up on Wall Street” was one of the essential classics I’ve read several times to develop my investing approach. Just like getting into shape. You can’t expect to buy a pill, drink a potion, join a club or buy a piece of equipment to suddenly get you into shape. The only thing that will get you there is hard work. Investments are no different.

Don’t expect miracles in your journey to investment success. Expect to work hard, and learn a lot of lessons. As any successful person will tell you, if they are truly candid, success is built on many failures. Educating yourself minimizes those failures!
