When I completely understood what investing is, I have no idea why not everybody invests.

This is key event #6 in my life - realizing the power of the investing.

What does it mean to invest?

Investing is spending some funds, time, resources or efforts in order to be happier, more wealthy and more healthy.

In a few words: Give in order to receive more.

I don't talk about money. I mean everything that is related to progress. Actually, we don't invest money.

We invest time.

No matter you want to increase your bank account, to lose weight or to run a marathon, it is always about spending your time and efforts chasing your greater good. 

Investing = Progressing

How my mind was invaded by the thought of investing?

Just one name - Robert Kiyosaki.

Before realizing what the real principle of investing is, I weren't available to give the definition above. I associated the word 'investing' with financial markets, shares and Wall Street.

I started reading Robert Kiyosaki's books in March-April 2016. I was 17 and still in the gymnasium. The first book of Kiyosaki I have read made me want to invest. I had no idea what to do but I stated I would buy shares. I had just a faint idea about shares and had no money to invest. Everytime I remember this moment I smile broadly.

In June 2016 I enrolled in a course about FOREX trading. I got the course which was two months. In October 2016 I started to trade with real money because of my amazing result on a demo. And guess what- I started to lose money. I was very disappointed in myself and the fact the reality didn't meet my expectations.

Know I am investing in cryptocurrencies and altcoins. The cryptomarket is very, very bullish so it is still hard to be a loser trading in it but I am trying to develop my own strategies for buying crypto.

What are my investment goals?

My goals are building a diversified portfolio and opening an own business. I believe that the money should work for me and not the vice versa.

Now I am wealth advisor and study Economic and Business chasing my investment goals. 

Just build your capital and invest and you will live a wealthier life and will retire earlier.
