Current Investing Strategy |
1. Maximizing my prime asset which is my stake in the company I run which I track on here. I believe that the true value is double the amount I put down (Business Value). Maximizing this asset is my prime wealth building strategy. 2. Invest conservatively for retirement in my 401K, IRA accounts and stock market accounts. 3. Live a life without debt besides mortgages on real estate |
