This is a follow-up to yesterday’s Mad-as-Hell blog. If you didn’t read it, I encourage you to now.
If you’re like most investors, you’re not satisfied with the returns on your investments and are concerned about achieving future financial goals. These sediments have been prevalent and pervasive for the past 10 years with investors, yet they continue to play the game the financial service industry has defined.
Investors have chased ‘hot’ stocks, funds and fund managers at the recommendation of their advisor, while other investors have chased the next ‘hot’ advisor. These are meaningless changes as long as investors continue to play the same game with the same rules, guidelines and results, all dictated by the self-serving and greedy financial services industry. Investors have failed to recognize that their wealth is being confiscated, while playing ‘their game’.
If investors truly want to realize better results when it comes to return on their investment and provide themselves the greatest probability to achieve their future financial goals, they MUST:
Do This– Leverage ‘meaningful change’ by learning how to play a new investment game, one where investors:
- Commit to improve their investment knowledge, a little each day. (Financial success is a journey…not a sprint.)
- Learn to become their own most-trusted financial advisor. (Being in complete control is the only way to provide the greatest probability to achieve financial success.)
- Understand there is NO excuse or barrier that cannot be overcome with the right coach, mentor and partner. (This can easily be accomplished at an investor’s pace and within his/her lifestyle.)
- Make the choice to play a winner’s game, starting today. (So your money starts building wealth for yourself…NOT your advisor!)
Not That – Continue to play a loser’s game as defined by the financial services industry and those that work in it.
If you’re serious about change to your financial future, why not make it meaningful? Can your financial future afford anything less?
