Why Are We Here?

By David Pitt – 11/11/2023

Why are we here? It’s not a trick question. It’s also not philosophical. If you have found your way to this webpage, I am assuming the simple answer is: “To make Money!”. This is a website dedicated to doing just that, whether it is in the stock market, real estate, or precious metals. The name of the game is invest. Simply put, you are here to learn new avenues to make money. I am here to make that process easier by explaining the steps I have taken and distilling my collective experiences, learning’s from reading books, and diligent studying of the investing world. My hope is to make this process as simple and easy for anyone to follow.

No matter what your age, education level or financial situation is, there are options for you to start investing. Investing is building wealth over time. True wealth creation can start from any amount of money but it takes time. The idea of investing is to grow value over time, It is not a get rich quick endeavor. Whether you are investing in real estate or stocks, the hope is that you grow money over years. Most of us have heard the phrase,
“Time is Money.” This is absolutely true. This is best shown by two factors. Factor 1 is called compound interest. Compound interest is one of the greatest powers in the world of investing. Lets say you start with 1000 dollars in the stock market and you make 10 percent gains. That means you made 100 dollars and now have 1100 dollars. If you make 10 percent the next year, than instead of making 100 dollars, you will now make 110. While that might not seem like a big difference, imagine this process repeating for years and years. After all, investing is for your future, and after 20 years that original investment could be worth 7,000 dollars. If you add money into your investment over the years that number grows at a very impressive rate. Compound interest takes any amount of money and over several years grows it a rate that only becomes more impressive the longer you let it grow. The second factor that represents the idea that “Time is Money” is Inflation. Many of you will notice that prices this year have been quite high at times for various products, whether it has been for Gas, Eggs, or other basic necessities. Inflation is constant and unending. Google the price of anything from, homes, cars or gas from 1986. I guarantee you will see that everything cost less than it does today. You may be saying: “Yea duh, so what?”

Something people forget to consider is how this affects their money in their savings. Lets say, you have 10,000 dollars in savings today. In several years that 10,000 may still be there safe and sound, but it won’t be worth what it is today. Every year your money sits in your savings account it is becoming less valuable due to inflation. This is inevitable! If your money is losing value every year than the only way to fight back is to make your money grow in value. This is why we invest. Even by investing in low risk, low reward systems like bank CDs or Bonds, your money will grow. By taking any steps to make your money grow you will at least be fighting inflation, by taking your first steps of investing you will find you are already doing what so many Americans are not. Set yourself up for success and take the first steps in growing your moneys value while everyone else has theirs shrink.
