The Retail Investors Guide To The Stock Market - How To Maximize Returns and Minimize Errors
Investing is a lot like sex, everyone thinks they're good at it.
But it's pretty easy to be searching in the dark, lost as to where you are going. When I started investing, I had zero idea what I was doing. I didn't know what success even looked like.
Not only was I dumbfounded as to what long-term success looked like, but I also didn't know:
- Which mistakes I was making that were losing me piles of money
- What to look for in a wonderful business that can compound money
- How big of an impact my emotions had on my investing success (or in my case, failure)
- Where to look for great stock ideas from likeminded people
- Why I should've been researching history to learn from others' mistakes
- Which tools to use to 100x the speed I could research stocks
- And probably a million other things.
With this in mind, I wanted to create a book that retail investors could read to help them achieve wealth with stocks.
This isn't a get-rich-quick book. In fact, it's the opposite. It's a get-rich over time book. If you want to achieve financial independence one day, you'll need to have wealth. Get-rich-quick schemes are just as likely (if not more likely) to lose wealth than to gain it.
The secret to getting rich in the stock market is to put your money into the market and let compounding take care of the rest.
If you do this you'll have a massive pile of money to live off sometime down the road.
It's taken me 7 years to learn all the lessons I've learned in this book.
The beautiful part about the internet is that I can share these lessons with you instantly. If I had been able to know what I knew when I first began investing, I'd:
- Have more wealth
- Be closer to financial independence
- Lost a fraction of the money I've lost
- Have experienced less stress and anguish through the investing process
- Spent a fraction of the time reading, researching and thinking to end up where I am now
Now you can take advantage of all these mistakes by reading this short guide to help you maximize returns and minimize errors.
Investing isn't an intuitive activity.
In order to improve at investing, you must actively fight your basic instincts. The problem that the majority of investors have is they don't know which of these instincts are helping them and which are causing them harm. If you never address these issues, then you'll be the type of investor who:
Worst case scenario: loses money
Best case scenario: lags the performance of an index
To transform yourself into a good investor, you'll need to spend some time thinking about the mistakes you've made. Many investors will spend their entire lives thinking about this (consciously or subconsciously) but may never attain the transformation they desire. By reading this book and spending just a few minutes a day answering questions and thinking about the lessons in the accompanying workbook, you'll rapidly improve your thinking faster than you'd ever do from learning on your own.
I'm convinced that improving your thinking in investing is the key to unlocking great long-term results.
