Bench Talk: Why Do We Invest?

Why Do We Invest?

Investing is risky so why do it? The reason is inflation.
  • Inflation is simply the rising cost of goods and services over time.
  • It is a naturally occurring law of money.
Example: the price of gas when I started driving (30 yrs ago) .99 cents v. today $2.80. If we do not invest we would have to increase the rate of our savings each year to account for inflation. Each year this would become increasingly untenable. I come to work to help individuals beat inflation.  It is why I’m here.
