Confused about the subject of Investing? Wondering how to create an investment strategy? Not sure where to even start? I started managing my own investments over 25 years ago, I have made my share of mistakes but overall have been successful in making my own investment decisions. However, when I first started out, before I started investing in stocks, mutual funds or contributing to a 401(k) plan, I wish I would have had a better perspective on where to start – a better understanding of the investment landscape.
