Taking a breather

It seems as if a lot of investors took a breather today as the JSE softened. The only stocks that I have that rose slightly were mining stocks...I am told because of the softer rand. I am sticking to the golden rules, and I don't take too much notice of fundamental and technical analysis. I am not a day trader and if the shares fall outside of the golden stock trading rules I don't buy or sell them. You may think this is silly but remember where I am coming from. I will learn slowly, using small amounts of cash on small positions. I need to make an overall 13% average profit on my capital. If I can learn to pick the correct stocks and I do this consistently, I will make a good return.

On the R35,000 I am currently using as working capital, I aim to make a profit of R4,55O per month. If I can trade with R350,000 capital and achieve the same returns, I would earn R45,500 per month. If I am sounding repetitive it is because it is repetitive. I will trade unemotionally, and not chase any shares at all.

"So have you made any money?" you ask

This last month has actually been a bad month. I haven't made any money but I have learned alot. I am happy with my progress, and figure if I have done ok in a bad market I will do better in a good market.

BLOG about "BUYING TIME" and making sure you "BANK IT!!"

My life has been an adventure with many milestones, with many directions and ambitions, but the one underlying theme been "BUYING TIME". I believe time is a commodity which can be bought like any other commodity, and can be stored up and used at will later in life.

I am a businessman, an entrepreneur, and hope my journals will give you hope, that's it is possible to live your dreams.

In this site you'll discover two terms I use frequently, "BUYING TIME" and "BANK IT!!", a term I share with my life long friend, photo journalist Roger Horrocks.

I know that these two sayings will enrich your life and define it as a life with purpose, if you grasp them with both hands and embrace their concept.
