It Isn’t Just About Money!

My earlier post on - Seven Ways To Survive a Stock Market Correction!, got me several e-mails and it was really touching to hear from all of you. I might have not been able to reply to all of you personally, but please know that I do understand what each one of you feels. A few of you told me how you almost had tears in your eyes while others thanked me for motivating them. I accept and thank each one of you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your thoughts and emotions with me. It means a lot as I have made it my mission to empower and help each and every Indian investor. I want you to know that I am an investor just like you and know investing isn’t just about money.

I know how hard it is to just start investing and see a 30% or 40% red in the portfolio, because investing isn’t just about money. It is much more. It is about human emotions, desires and fears.

We invest because we all aspire for financial freedom and security. Money gives us a sense of freedom and safety. Whenever we see our money being wiped out, we feel a sense of loss which makes us feel insecure. We feel scared and afraid of the future. Most of us feel this way, because we have all worked hard and honestly for our money.

Those who say money doesn’t matter and is nothing are probably people who have large amounts of money or people who have nothing. For most other people money is necessary and a source of security.

Just one friendly advice, please do not think of investing as a means to get rich quick. Instead look at it as something which is about building assets for the future. For something which will give you financial security and independence. It is easily possible to get lucky and get rich quick, but it is even more likely to get unlucky and get poor even quicker by making the wrong investment decisions.

The next time you decide to invest, think with both your heart and head. I assure you that you will make the right decision. And always remember life isn’t just about money, it is about living, smiling and being happy.

I would request each one of you to support each other and share your thoughts and ideas. The more ideas are shared the more opportunities are created. The more opportunities are created, the more wealth is created.
