I'm My Best Advisor

I spend a lot of time writing articles for this website, but I spend even more time re-reading and thinking about these articles. That's because some of the best ideas that I can find on investing are usually located within the confines of this website. I'm not sure what other writers do, but I actually transact the ideas laid out in these articles. And so far I've given myself some great ideas. 

This week dividends were deposited in my accounts and I thought it might be a good idea to put those funds to work earning more dividends. So I went to the Best Ideas portion of this site and re-read about those Best Ideas. As a result, I added to my positions in Apple Inc and Time Warner Inc. In a few weeks I'll know if these were good investments but whether they're successful or not, I'll have a way of looking back at my research and see where the trade went good or bad. It's this reassessment and reevaluation that makes my personal investing strategy work over time. I'm able to learn from my mistakes and benefit from my successes. It's really the beauty of having a website like this. 

If you're a struggling investor trying to perfect your investment philosophy like all the rest of us....

Welcome.

And I hope you'll come back again often.
