Because
investing is not a sure thing in most cases, it is much like a
game – you don’t know the outcome until the game has been
played and a winner has been declared. Anytime you play almost
any type of game, you have a strategy. Investing isn’t any
different – you need an investment strategy. An investment
strategy is basically a plan for investing your money in
various types of investments that will help you meet your
financial goals in a specific amount of time. Each type of
investment contains individual investments that you must
choose from. A clothing store sells clothes – but those
clothes consist of shirts, pants, dresses, skirts,
undergarments, etc.

The stock market is a type of
investment, but it contains different types of stocks, which all
contain different companies that you can invest in.
If you haven’t done your research, it can quickly become very confusing – simply because there are so many different types of investments and individual investments to choose from. This is where your strategy, combined with your risk tolerance and investment style all come into play.
If you are new to investments, work closely with a financial planner before making any investments. They will help you develop an investment strategy that will not only fall within the bounds of your risk tolerance and your investment style, but will also help you achieve your financial goals.
Never invest money without having a goal and a strategy for reaching that goal! This is essential. Nobody hands their money over to anyone without knowing what that money is being used for and when they will get it back! If you don’t have a goal, a plan, or a strategy, that is essentially what you are doing! Always start with a goal and a strategy for reaching that goal!
