The S.E.I. Tip of the Week - Understanding There's Two Investment Games Investors Can Play

Some of you may have noticed that we recently decided to add a new twist to our daily blogs. Instead of writing totally independent blogs on a daily basis, we've concluded based on our reader's input, that investors would be better served if our daily blogs focused on a weekly theme.

Starting this week, we’ll begin to communicate the specific theme so you’ll have a better idea in advance what our blogs will focus on for the week, while continuing with our daily segments; Tip of the Week, Inspiration, Mad-as-Hell, Do This…Not That and our weekly recap.

This week’s theme will focus on; The Importance of Understanding Alternatives.

Our goal at The Self Empowered Investor is and has been, to inform every investor of the two games they have a choice to play. To have a choice though, investors must first understand what these two games are and how they differ. To best convey this message, we’re sharing a video titled: Tim’s Story; a story of one of our co-founders, how he bridged the gap moving from investing with an advisor to becoming an informed self empowered investor and what he learned along his journey. (Hopefully, you view your financial future worth this informative 10 minute video?)  

So, here’s our Tip-of-the-Week: Understand the two investment games you have a choice and opportunity to play.

If you’re convinced after watching this video that using a financial advisor to manage your financial future is your best alternative, ask yourself this question; who sleeps better at night when it comes to your financial future, you…or your financial advisor?
