THE HARVEST OF JOY AND FORTUNE IN INVESTING IN COMPANY SHARES

Shares are unit of capital or ownership interest in a company.
Investing refers to sowing and after sowing comes the harvest of joy and fortune. Investing is a great means of wealth creation for a stable and dependable financial future.

Different spheres of investing include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, treasury bills, property, savings account, bank CDs, etc. Investing in stock and company shares is proven to be the most ideal, attractive and rewarding.

To be successful therefore, one has to learn the basic tools and techniques of investing. Proper knowledge and understanding of the marketing procedures and its controlling factors becomes essential.
In as much as investing points to the future, wise men and investors like you don’t live for today but with the power of second sight lays a good foundation for the days ahead.

BENEFITS OF INVESTING IN COMPANY SHARES: Harvest time is a time of joy and rejoicing. ”They that sow in tears shall reap in joy” says the Holy Writ. Like a dream come true, the wealth of rewards associated with investing include;

· Dividend, that is divided profit
· Capital appreciation (pillar of investing)

HOW CAN I BECOME A SUCCESSFUL SHARE HOLDER?

As simple as ABC, make adequate financial plans with concerted effort to own an investment port folio. Enlist the services of qualified, certified and registered stock brokers. Based on the advice of your stock broker, you may buy either from the primary market (public offers) or secondary market (stock market).

Endeavour to buy more shares when prices are low and sell as soon as possible when they appreciates.In this regard, a good broker will be of help.

“YOU GOT TO ASPIRE TO ACQUIRE WHAT YOU DESIRE.WHEN YOU PERSPIRE, DON’T RETIRE BUT REFIRE TO ACQUIRE YOUR DESIRE”

DANGER TO AVOID IN BUYING COMPANY SHARES:

Permit me to mention here that there are pitfalls to be avoided in order to excel in investing.
Don’t just throw in your hard earned income for a company whose profile of past financial records and dealings is neither reachable nor accessible. Be quite selective in your choice of a company to invest in.
Don’t enlist the services of unqualified stock brokers. Gather all the necessary info about the broker to avoid falling in to wrong and fraudulent hands as this could cost you a great deal of fortune.
Personal follow up of your transactions on a daily basis is very important.

So invest today, invest tomorrow. Cultivate the habit of investing and saving for the rainy day. The sky cannot be your limit
Your generation yet unborn will rise and praise you calling you a blessing.

Cheers!
