Why do it yourself investing?

Because DIY Investing is easy, but most importantly you are fed up of your fund manager enriching on your back.

If fund managers were so good, why did they lose some 50% of your money in placements like 401k or IRA? It's true that we entered a recession period, but shouldn't your fund manager have foreseen it and protect your investment? Isn't what you pay them for? Fund managers shrewdly disguised their management fees by deducting directly from your account balance. Trust me when I say, fund managers look after themselves first, before looking after you. Actually, trust is not to be taken lightly these days. So see for yourself - Here are the ten investing nuggets  from a great book by Michael Edesess called The Big Investment Lie.

 

1. Investment management is a con set up to separate investors from their money.

 

2. Brokers own yachts, but their clients don't.

 

3. The market moves randomly, so past performance will never be a guarantee of future performance.

 

4. Professional investment firms go to great lengths to hide the fact that they consistently underperform.

 

5. Fund management fees are sometimes double the returns to an investor.

 

6. Sales techniques aim to blind investors with numbers and apparent science.

 

7. A passive investing strategy is the only reasonable approach to the stock market.

 

8. The market price of a stock is a reflection of all the relevant information available.

 

9. Hedge fund managers do not have a better record over the long term than any other type of manager.

 

10. Thrifty investing is the only way to make money on the stock market.

 

The Stock Market Reality

The reality is that no one can predict the stock market (see nugget #3). It is a chaotic system that seldom follow any rules or trends. If it does, then there would be hundreds of Warren Buffet on this planet. All these performance charts from financial advisers are just pure masquerade to create the illusion that investing in the stock market is a highly complex business and you need so-called 'professionals' to help you out.

 

Investing in the stock market is fairly simple. You start by opening an online broker account and follow basic rules of investing such as don't pull all your eggs in one basket - have a diversified portfolio of stocks. ScottAdviceTM can show you how to open an online broker account easily if your don't have one already.

 

How can ScottAdviceTM help you?

In many ways, investing is like dieting. Americans spend billions of dollars on dieting gimmicks from pills to diet programs when we all know that the key to losing weight is to eat less and exercise. It sounds so simple, yet most people fail to shed weight because lack of mental and emotional strength, often coined as al fortitude. It's proven that dieters who work with weight loss coaches have much better chances of losing weight than those who don't. This is simply because there is always someone guiding them to do the right thing.

 

An Investing Coach is just like a weight loss coach. Once you decide that do-it-yourself investing is the best way to invest in the stock market, you will be much better off by having an Investing Coach by your side. Now I'm NOT talking about a financial adviser - They don't know better than you do (and remember they are the one owning yacht, not you. See nugget #2 above).

 

ScottAdviceTM provides you with investment guidance in plain, simple English. Unlike 99% of so-called financial gurus who went to the same university, studied the same course and work on the same (Wall) Street and talk the same jargon-full language, ScottAdviceTM is truly a breath of fresh air. We seldom perform technical analysis because the market is too complexed to be simplified by mathematical equations. Instead, we follow the laws of uncertainty, which is the best way to understand a chaotic system.  For instance, did you know that you have a 66% chance of losing money if you invest in an economic downturn. In contrast, you have a 66% chance of making profit if you invest during a period of economic boom.
