Top 7 Reasons to Invest in the Market

Calendar August 6, 2007 | Posted by Jorge
  1. When prices at the pump skyrocket, you laugh because your portfolio did the same thing.
  2. You feel important telling the Dominos order person you’re a shareholder and receiving something called the 5-5-5 Deal.
  3. Getting your financial statements in the mail makes your significant other think you’re important.
  4. You’ve always wanted a cool nickname like the person that broke the Bank of England (see George Soros).
  5. You’ve always wanted your own bobblehead doll…
  6. Remember when you were picked on in high school for being a math geek?
  7. You can’t live without the streaming ticker on CNBC.

    It was something I came up for fun. I'd actually like to create a more serious list on why folks (like you and I) need to invest in the market and not be so afraid of it. That was my biggest issue. Fear and panic only lose you money.
  • I like the list. The first one on the list best fits me. I decided I wasn't going to sit back and just be upset every time the price of gas went up, so I profited from it!
