WHAT ARE THE BEST INVESTMENTS YOU HAVE EVER MADE ?

My Answer: 

The best investments I ever made was at the age of 28, though I regret for having started so late.

I some how got attracted to good books while I spent time on railway platforms waiting for the trains and could eventually manage to buy the following books:

1. Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.

2. How to Avoid Loss and Earn Consistently in Stock Market by Prasenjit Paul

3. Value Investing and Behavioral Finance by Parag Parikh.

4. Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham.

These books introduced me to a complete new world, the world of value investing.

Today, I fully attribute my success in investing to the above books.

I followed the principles and practices of the great authors relentlessly and with full faith, which eventually helped me to build up a strong portfolio of diversified assets for myself with ease.

I am sure, I couldn't have done better by working hard or otherwise chasing money.

Now my aim is to help people gain the right knowledge about stocks, paper assets and to help them adapt the practices of value investing.

My suggestion to all my friends .... start investing as early as possible, the power of compounding helps in a big way to create wealth AND stick to appropriate asset allocation without greed and fear.

Nurture your investments as you nurture a plant or a child.

Happy Investing ...... May all my friends create wealth for themselves.
