Also establishing yourself as an expert helps to. And understand, you're only an expert when the industry in general refers… -
Re: Investing and Stocks
Lot of good advice in this thread. Few comments I'd like to make here, as I'm trying to get my financial life in order. First off, I wholeheartedly agree that spending gobs of time playing the stock market is usually not going to be nearly as much of a return in most cases as investing your time in yourself.

The material surprisingly hadn't changed that much from…
