You don’t have to be The Oracle of Omaha<\/a> to build wealth from the stock market. You don’t need inside information. You don’t need to waste time reading financial statements. And you certainly don’t need to pay expensive fund managers to lose your hard earned money<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, you can generate modest returns (above 10% per year) that beat over 90% of Wall Street professionals, and you can do this without even picking a stock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n How is this possible? <\/p>\n\n\n\n By using a strategy known as Index Investing<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Index investing is a strategy that uses a low-cost, passive approach to investing in the stock market.

His advice affirms the strategy of low-cost, long-term, broad-market index investing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most normal people like you and me, don’t have time to read financial statements to find out what companies are the best to invest in. We also don’t want to choose an expensive portfolio manager because they often do not outperform the market and sometimes fail altogether.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The solution, is to use an index investing strategy to build wealth from the stock market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You don’t have to be The Oracle of Omaha to build wealth from the stock market.
