I'm adding you to my favourites and will be part of my daily reading.

I would agree with the most important, but also put right up there with it "picking a stock and business model you can easily understand". As I alluded to in my previous post I think that many investors neglect to understand the business model of a company and focus instead on factors such as EPS growth, dividends or stock price.<BR/>That's part of knowing your limitations as well if you choose to invest in a business or sector that you don't understand properly.Nurseb911http://www.nurseb911.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4886595570005494885.post-89382855326576869062008-11-18T04:27:00.000-05:002008-11-18T04:27:00.000-05:00Great list. I would say the most important of all is "Know yourself and your limitations"... this is by far the hardest one for someone to realize on their own.<BR/><BR/>Human beings seem to thoroughly enjoy overestimating themselves. And when it comes to personal finances this overestimation can be extremely damaging to your wealth and health.<BR/><BR/>Know yourself and your limitations!<BR/><BR/>Cheers.<BR/><BR/>EthanEthan Blochhttp://thewaytobuildwealth.orgnoreply@blogger.com
