Warren buffets advice for 2009 We begin this New Year with dampened enthusiasm and dented optimism. Our happiness is diluted and our peace is threatened by the financial illness that has infected our families, organizations and nations. Everyone is desperate to find a remedy that will cure their financial illness and help them recover their financial health. They expect the financial experts to provide them with remedies, forgetting the fact that it is these experts who
created this financial mess. Every new year, I adopt a couple of old maxims as my beacons to guide my future. This self-prescribed therapy has ensured that with each passing year, I grow wiser and not older. This year, I invite you to tap into the financial wisdom of our elders along with me, and become financially wiser. * Hard work: All hard work bring a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty. * Laziness: A sleeping lobster is carried away by the water current. * Earnings: Never depend on a single source of income. [ At least make your Investments get you second earning ] * Spending: If you buy things you don't need, you'll soon sell things you need. * Savings: Don't save what is left after spending; Spend what is left after saving. * Borrowings: The borrower becomes the lender's slave. * Accounting: It's no use carrying an umbrella, if your shoes are leaking. * Auditing: Beware of little expenses; A small leak can sink a large ship. * Risk-taking: Never test the depth of the river with both feet. [ Have an alternate plan ready ] * Investment: Don't put all your eggs in one basket. I'm certain that those who have already been practicing these principles remain financially healthy. I'm equally confident that those who resolve to start practicing these principles wil quickly regain their financial health. Let us become wiser and lead a happy, healthy, prosperous and peaceful life. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Asalam o Alaikum, You Are Receiving This Message, Because You Are A Member Of FOCUS ON ISLAM, A Google Group [..:: The Best Group For Nice Islamic Mails ::..] \/<<<<>>>>\/<<<<>>>>\/<<<<>>>>\/<<<<>>>>\/<<<<>>>>\/<<<<>>>>\/<>\/ You can Post Your Comments and Suggestions to Me [Moderator of this Group] on this email address: [email protected] To visit your group on the web, go to: http://groups.google.com/group/focusonislam/ To post messages/mails to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] Please forward our Mails to Your friends, and convence them to join our Group.
