Wealth Creation – Rule 8 (Invest your Savings with
Discretion)
If you must create
wealth then you should invest your savings with discretion.
Sometimes
it is not just all about savings. A man who lacks discreet saving investment
plans will perpetually live in poverty. It is not just about planning but
planning wisely. Great business empires in the world today started because
their
owners made wise investment plans.
A story
in the Bible talks about a master who has three servants. While he was about
traveling he called three of them and distributed talents to them. He gave 5 talents, 3 talents and 1talent to the trio respectively. On
coming back, he called on the trio to account for the talents. The first and
second who made good use of their talents made profit and so they were hououred
but the last of them who did not invest his was dishonoured.
So if
you must create wealth you should be in the habit of investing your savings
wisely. In order to invest your saving wisely, you are expected to be
informative of current trends in your
environment. You don’t just invest because
people are investing. You study the trends carefully to determine if it
is ideal for you.
I happened to have a
chat with a friend of mine who is into forex trading. He made a statement that
struck my heart. He said “forex is made for only the intelligent minds”.
Although
I have not attempted going into forex what I learnt form his statement is that
if perpedventure I am to venture into
forex then there is need for me to first understand the do’s and don’t’s of forex. That means I have to first acquaint
myself with the necessary technical know-hows and skills in order to be a
successful forex trader.
Food for Thought:
“Don’t start what you know nothing about”.
