Investment Help

If you are seeking investment help, look at the video here on my services. If you are seeking a different approach to managing your assets, you have landed at the right spot. I am a fee-only advisor registered in the State of Maryland, charge less than half the going rate for investment management, and seek to teach individuals how to manage their own assets using low-cost indexed exchange traded funds. Please call or email me if interested in further details. My website is at http://www.rwinvestmentstrategies.com. If you are new to investing, take a look at the "DIY Investor Newbie" posts here by typing "newbie" in the search box above to the left. These take you through the basics of what you need to know in getting started on doing your own investing.

DIY Investor Newbie - Risk Tolerance (Cont.)


As you view the video, notice the questions that have to do with emotions. Emotions are the enemy of the investor. Emotions cause investors to get carried away as prices rise and to capitulate at bargain basement prices. If you are too emotional, you are better off letting a professional handle your money.

  2. I read somewhere that it was the Economist magazine's most popular cartoon and traders said that it gives the actual feel of the trading floor.
