Our General Rules for Investing

Submitted by Van Beek on January 7, 2011 - 11:34

As a smart investor, you need to set a number of rules and guidelines for yourself to which you will adhere.

Here are our rules.

  • We do not invest in individual stocks but only in index funds and low-cost mutual funds with a good track record.
     
  • We only invest our savings that we do not need for at least 5 to 10 years. We never borrow money to invest in the stock market.
     
  • We limit our exposure to foreign markets/currencies that show a declining trend to our home currency to a certain percentage of our overall savings that we have earmarked for investing in the stock market.
