Invest in yourself first (e.g. financial knowledge, marketable skills, etc.) before investing a penny into any external investment. Everything in business and investment revolves around you and your decision-making. The better you are as a person, the better you can do in business. Inpatient people would not agree to this, but time will always tell. In 10 years or 20 years time, you'd see the difference between those who invested in themselves first and those who like taking hasty uninformed decisions. Just take a look at people like Warren Buffet, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, etc. These are people who chose to invest in themselves first, and now they are the best in their respective field. Don't just take my word for it. If you're reading this right now, test it for yourself. Choose one field or area of expertise you love. Develop yourself in that field either through schooling, self-education, or apprenticeship for the next 5 years. Endeavor to learn all you can and try to be the best in doing that thing. Come back in 5 to 10 years and you'll notice the world of difference between you and many others who choose to pursue money without investing in themselves first. Just try it and see for yourself. Self development is the basis of all human endeavor. This is an unpopular opinion and only few people subscribe to it. 4 Likes 1 Share |
