Financial Gaps – Ignorance & Confusion can be Expensive

Financial gaps and how ignorance is not a virtue.

Obama’s speech at the Rutgers University in New Jersey will be long remembered:

‘In politics and in life, ignorance is not a virtue’ he declared.

Ignorance might be ‘bliss’ in the short-term but generally is a disaster long-term. This is true in life and it is more than true in the world of finance.

Ignorance is expensive

Ignorance around finances can cost you lots of money – it can be very expensive. It can cause you to have a false sense of security.  It can have you blindly trusting others who appear to know more than you, it can rob you of the potential earning power of your capital and it can eventually takeaway your peace.A more mature, informed sense of awareness around real risks and opportunities is where the true power of your hard earned money lies.At Wealthwise, we say ‘when it comes to money, your greatest asset is your financial knowledge’. At Wealthwise it’s all about replacing ignorance with realising, learning, discovering, and understanding.Increase your power

It’s about not being caught up, charmed or enrolled in all the confusion. When you know more, you can identify those that talk to confuse you and they lose their power.

As a new investor, without knowing how the stock market really works, your chances of success are low. Even if you have been investing for a while, you may be getting by without the clarity you deserve.

Get knowledge & clarity
