Ironically, if we do nothing, our money diminishes through inflation. Money in the mattress is not safe, and our most “secure” investments are being seriously depleted by inflation. Our most risky investments or trades are handsomely rewarded only to be devoured shockingly overnight. We gather ourselves up, and proceed with our daring adventure, our profession. We must to remain in the game. Here and it’s gone. There and it grows. Unless we are willing to lose some of our “secure” finances, we cannot trade or invest. What a dilemma! What a state of affairs! Where is our security?
What are we to do? It seems to me the only thing we can do is to realize that financial security is a state of mind and not a number or a physical stash. The only gold that is safe is the gold of the human heart and mind. Security comes from believing in our skills and our ability to develop and hone out trading and investing abilities. Security comes from admitting our mistakes and learning from our successes and failures. And we look backwards and forwards and realize we can always create enough money to meet our needs and wants.
