If you are paying a portfolio manager to handle your investments, it is even more important for you to ask what he is doing with your money.
You must always understand what you are investing in and the possible risks that you are taking.
It is not the most entertaining of subject matters, but financial investments work much better for you if you know exactly what you are investing in.
So break out that portfolio and get a gleaning of what every single investment line stands for.
The Economy.
The economy is bad, worldwide. Even if you do have a job, usually it doesn't pay you enough for you and your family to live on. So you have to go get another job, is this the type of life you want?
Do you want to improve your financial situation? Are you working in a dead-end job? Do you want more for you and your family? Would you like to work for yourself?
Do you want to fulfill your dreams? Can you find 15 to 20 hours a week to make good money? Learn to believe in yourself. Achieve your goals. Stop letting others control your life. Live without regrets. Live more abundantly.
