Principle #1: Be educated
More than any other field of learning, responsibility for your financial education lies with you. Sure, you need to continue learning for your career, your family, your life, etc. But these tend to be facilitated by your company, your church and community groups. Financial wisdom is far less likely to fall into your path — it needs to be pursued.
The goal of this blog is to help you get there. It will regularly review the current news in context of well-known investing principles. It will provide key insights from some of the leading books in the field. And it will discuss investment, investing principles and investment opportunities. I hope you enjoy your time here — but remember, it’s up to you to ensure that are preparing for your future (home, holidays, kids, University, retirement). So take control today, and do some reading, some talking and some thinking. Get a group of friends who want to learn together, to share success, failure and discuss opportunities. Get educated!
