"Invest in gold, the most stable investment ever!"I tell you, it's all just a pep-talk. We won't get rich. Best we can be with the investment? Most probably a little bit more money than we have before.
"Invest in stocks, the opportunity is unlimited!"
"Invest in mutual funds, the interest is consistence!"
"Invest in property, the most profitable investment ever!"
Or just wait till the bubble burst, we'll lose most of it, or some. And what they'll say?
"Invest more! It is time to buy! Soon they'll go to the moon!"And in all those time, who profit the most? The one who is trying to SELL you the investment, the MIDDLEMAN!
The one who sold us the gold, the one who sold us the stocks, the one who sold us the mutual funds, the one who sold us the property.
THE MIDDLEMAN!
Each time we buy our soon to be rich investment, we are a bit poor minus the fees.
And the same each time we sell our investment. Minus some more fees.
The one who is selling or the middleman is the only getting richer. Accumulating the wealth without any loss. Solid profit.
So, we go back to the basic question. How do we really get rich?
Start selling. Or be a middleman.
Hi Abrak,
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more. I actually get the idea on how these "methods" can generate extra money for us. It's proven, it's true. But like you I can't stand the fact that the middleman is making more money than us! But that begs the question, why don't we become the middleman?
Something about being the middleman is bothering me though. I feel like I am in the position of power to gain as much as I want with very little control. Haha I feel like I'd be drunk with power :P
