Building people’s ability to think and act with confidence when investing for their futures. We realize that the economy combined with high energy investing styles may appear to be worthwhile, but let me tell you it is only for a short period of time and is meant to entice the small and emotional investor. While I have been one who studied many different styles of investing I have found that Technical "Charting Based" and Fundamental "News Based" investing is still a shot in the dark. I on the other hand I believe in Realistic "Book Based" Investing.
Fundamental Investing consist of guessing the market because of what the public believes. The news that comes from big banks, investment shows and big business can drive a company anyway they want. Technical investing believes that and investment will act a certain way just because that is what has happened in the past, followed by many different confirmations to confirm what charting history says.
I am not one who thinks that these investing strategy's are bad but I am one who believes that when people invest in a good company that makes money, pays the shareholders and is currently undervalued that these are the company's who will make the small investor money. Mutual fund and investment companies have a hard time investing in such company's because they don’t want majority ownership. The reasoning is because when a mutual fund or a hedge fund sees opportunity they place millions of dollars in that opportunity. The Fund won’t do this in a small company because the amount they would invest would in essence purchase the small business or at least majority of the share of that company. When this happens they have to do all sorts of annoying procedures with the Security and Exchange Commission. Second to this however is that a fund worth billions of dollars needs a place where they can invest the majority of their cash to receive a large enough return on investment and a company making 50 million a year can’t give a large enough return to amount to anything. For example: A 500 million dollar fund invest in a 500 thousand dollar company. That company doubles in value to 1 million dollars. Even though this company doubled in value, the gain for the entire portfolio is only 500 thousand dollars or .1 percent of the fund. A small investor would have gained a huge return while the big fund had a return of insignificant amount.
People are always after the big money "The Gold Mine". The investment no other person has thought about. Getting in first and riding the wave of success. Well I’m here to try and help people do just that but on a small and personal scale. I’m not about to recommend anything to you but I will teach you correct investment principles so that you can decide if a investment is really as good as your neighbor says. I’m all about not going with what others say will happen "unless what they say is true" and “if you don’t get in now you’re not going to make a huge return”. This type of skepticism is not fair to the little guy who has built a trust with whoever it is that is recommending the investment. In fact I believe that when you go to a party and people are talking about a great new investment or stock that everyone should invest in, It’s time to sell that company as fast as you can. I call this "Going against People Think". Consistency, patience, and research will drive success. When people tell you that “That you are analyzing too much about your investment” Don’t believe them! It is not worth losing your money just because some guy tells you at work that "You just have to make a decision without understanding the facts". That might be true in quick business but it is not true in our style of safe investing. I want to know what is going on with the companies that I own. And because I’m a shareholder or Future Investor I have the right to know what, where and when my money is.
It comes down to building your nest egg so that you can retire the way you want. You don’t want to just leave your future to just anyone’s opinion. You need to know the facts about what you’re doing with your money. Just don’t leave it to chance but leave it to an educated decision.
