How good is the food you eat…
Tuesday, 1 September 2009
I have been interviewing to replace my PA/client service administrator as she is getting married and then off travelling for a year…(perhaps she has it right not me!).
One of the prospective candidates had previous experience as a part-time waitress.
In the discussion we agreed that most people do not complain unless the food or service is really bad to make a difference. Most of the time, most accept that the food or service is sometimes exceptional, but most of the time, its average.
In the investment world, most people don’t really want average, understandably, you want the best returns, in fact it’s natural to think that way.
Yet, here’s the bad news. Many investors do not even get the average return in the market. In fact, it’s often less than average. But if you think it’s above average, you will take no action to change how you invest.
Unlike food, where you compare the tastes, you can make judgments about what is good food and exceptionally good food. Your money is different. You may only find out you have less than you expected at retirement, then it could be too late to make a change.
It is therefore so important to review our investments. We can give your investments a Michelin Star or not as the case maybe.
