Advice about investing in the Stock Market.

A huge thing about the stock market is an investor must understand is that it fluctuates. A smart investor never rushes out and sells their stock when prices drop, in fact they should do the opposite and perhaps buy more of that stock. Let me explain, what goes down must come back up and it has been proven over time that this is particularly true when it comes to stocks. Since this holds true when the price of stock goes down why not purchase more and enjoy the profits when it eventually goes back up. Another huge thing an investor must understand when dealing in the stock market is that your in it for the long haul, another words do not micro manage your investments on a daily basis. Check out how your stocks are doing once a month because we are beginners and not day traders. For more on stocks visit this awesome site for great tips.

 

 

Real Estate by far the best way to build wealth and set yourself up for retirement.

Real Estate is the number one way to build wealth hands down and its been proven. Investing in real estate is more for a seasoned investor and you must know what you are doing or you could end up losing money. Here are some tips on a few different ways to purchase real estate. You can go to your local court house and purchase foreclosed homes, you do have to have the money at the time of the sale but I have mentioned this is for the seasoned investor with capitol. You can contact real estate agents and let them know that you are looking for fixer upper homes and at what price range. Another great way to get really good deals on real estate is to contact banks and let them know your interested in purchasing their bad paper loans, its another term for houses that have foreclosed and did not sell at the court house. Good luck and remember to take your time and ask questions or you might end up losing money and that would defeat the purpose.
