Weekly Wisdom: Tips for a Life O’ Luck

March 14th, 2010

Good luck is something you’re born with, right? A lucky star. A numerological event? A rabbit’s foot or a lucky shirt?

Expect Good Fortune

If you expect good fortune, chances are you’ll get it. People who believe they are lucky find that lucky things happen to them. And it’s beyond a mind-over-matter thing. If you think good things are going to happen, you’re going to keep looking for great investment opportunities.

Turn Bad Luck Into Good Luck

When that stock price drops, is it really the end of the world, or a totally new world opening up. Most people who see an item on sale don’t curse their bad luck for low prices, they buy it and focus on the luck of finding it on sale.

As the economy undergoes its current shift, keep some of these tips in mind. New industries will be developed. New opportunities will be created. New ways to invest will appear.

The successful investor in this new age of finance will be the most nimble and the investor who is ready to adopt new ways of thinking, utilize new technologies, and seize his or her own good luck.
