Lectures on Investing
revised Sept. 27, 2008


I took the time to study investing in great detail and as a result I have made a lot of money with wise investments. There is no short cut -- you have to do the work.  The money you make from investing is what you earn for making the effort. It is not free money nor is it luck.  People who believe in luck do not make money. 

I am working on, as time permits, a number of articles about the science, mathematics, and thought process of practical investing.  You lose money the easy way. You make money the hard way.  There are many popular myths, gimmicks, and scams that provide the easy way to transfer your money to someone else.  When the man with money meets the man with experience, the man with the money gets the experience and the man with experience gets the money.  If you take the time to study investing then you can avoid the traps, make money, and live a rich life.

My hope is that sometime during 2008 and 2009 to have at least a few articles ready to be posted below.  These articles will form a series of lectures on investing. Stay tuned ...

Investing versus Gambling   This is an age old question with lots of mis-information.  This article explains the real difference which you must understand in order to become a good investor.
