Tue, 19 Jul 2022 07:00:00 GMT

Each of us was uniquely born designed by GOD
with talents, confidence, gifts, skills, and abilities.
The way you are 'wired' is not an accident.

When you are living on purpose and feel good,
you don't have to be concerned about anything else
because your thoughts, words, and actions will be good and expressing your purpose

What can I do?

Who do I have a desire to help the most?

What is the problem that need to be fixed?

What is the perfect solution to fix it?

What are you willing to sacrifice for?

What would you love to do to help fix it?

Where am I going?

Does 'fear, hurt, doubt' stop you from pursuing purpose!

How does your purpose change other people lives!

Living your purpose leaves your legacy

Invest $42 week at 10% interest, work 10years = $1 million dollar

Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR), shows 10.04% average S&P 500 return from 1928 to 2020.

Where to Invest

Best recommended........ Pick Market Leading Growth Companies by Industry (stocks)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Best recommended strategy long term.....Buy and Hold in S&P 500 index mutual funds

Historically, if interest rates are low, stocks and bond returns are high (no CD's)
and if interest rates are rising up may mean move to cash (CD's)

Historically if dividends < 3 means stock are expensive,
if yields > 6 stock market stocks are cheap to buy
....purchasing yields between 4 - 7 has been profitable long term for most investors

Note: if a stock has p/e > 25.....may mean stock price is to high...move to cash or low p/e stock

Note: buy (low) if your stock p/e > 4...rising to..... p/e stock > 26....sell (high)

Historically if a stock price/sales fundamental is rising from 0.25 to 3 it will make money, when your stock or stock market hit p/s > 3 may mean move to cash or to a low p/s stock

Nomopofolks: Moving on from Poverty to Better

Mon, 27 Jun 2022 07:00:00 GMT

No one is born into a perfect life, you came here on earth to make your dreams come true, and no matter where you are now, what bad circumstances and obstacles you must overcome, you are fully equipped with everything you need to do it!

Network,
You can move from broke to better just by having the right conversation with the right person.

You were born with belief in yourself to be successful, and so if you don't believe in yourself today it just means that in your life you have accepted other people negative opinions as 'truth'.....and have maintained that lack of belief by repeating to yourself those lies.......stop it. THINK OPPOSITE and say to yourself, daily
'I can do it and people and resources will show up to help me succeed.'

One step at a time is all you can ever take....... The path out of poverty to become better will never unfold in the way you think anyway, so just keep bringing yourself back to 'what is the next wise thing to do' in prayer to receive instructions to pull yourself up and out.
