We are strong believers in investing here at E.M. We think it is an absolutely MUST-DO for differentiating yourself (in a good way) from the average American/human being, whose life is riddled with debt. That’s why occasionally, we’ll be giving you primers on investing concepts and why you should care.
We will make sense of the basic concepts and contemporary news and try to keep it high level so you don’t have to be some sort of “financial lord voldermort” to understand it while still being able to make use of it in your everday life. Honestly, we go nuts for this shit, and here’s why:
1. Investing will make you money – This may be the single most no-brainer thing I’ve ever said…but it is more than true. Investing, in any form should be a part of your financial life. If you are in debt, you should GET OUT of debt quickly, so you can start investing. A vast majority of America will spend the vast majority of their adult lives working for their precious dollars. Investing is the way that you can get that money to work for you. Investing is what will pay the down payments for your house(s). Investments are what you’ll cash in on to pay for your kid’s college education. Investments are what you’ll be living off of when you decide to finally stop working. Investing will bring that day closer. :) Investing is what will get you that money to help you accomplish whatever selfish, selfless, philanthropically, or bizarre dreams you wish to fulfill in your lifetime. Investing is important.
