If you want to invest successfully you are going to need to take two actions. Start as soon as possible and invest wisely. Forty years of investing $100 dollars will net you $326 if you invest it at 3% or $37,872 if invested at 16% which some mutual funds have done. The difference is investing wisely!
Configure a good asset allocation; add money regularly (Dollar cost averaging), choose the best funds and you will be on your way to financial security.
Assume back in late 1974 you had placed $1,000 in the Royce Pennsylvania Mutual Fund, Symbol PENNX it would be worth about a quarter of a million today. By adding just 1 dollar a week for the next eight years and the value today would be over one half million! If you had placed the same money in a single stock such as General Motors your investment would be worthless assuming you reinvested the dividends in General motors stock. The same can be said for a host of bad investments.
Start today and invest wisely.
