Have you heard these “bits of advice”????This is not a good time to look at property investment? Now is not a good time to invest in the stock market? Now is not a good time to buy oil futures? We have heard this from every “GURU” on the nightly news. The fact that this is a common belief does not make it true. Now is the time to go against the flow of popular opinion and buy an investment.

Did I have to prey on some one else’s misfortune?? The answer was no. However I did need to learn to take somethings to heart,and NEVER let go of them.

My own set of personal laws that would keep me on the “non predatory” path. Doc’s Rules for investing:
