Reinvigorate Your Investments

IMS helps you make the most stimulating of investments…An investment in your own business.

Today’s savvy business owners and entrepreneurs are busily planning their moves in the expanding barter marketplace - it’s the arena where they can use their “Private Capital” (product/service) rather than cash … and every time they do, their “yield” is considerably greater than what is normally obtained in the stock market as a passive investor.

Such action is especially important these days, because with the low interest rates, those outside investments in mutual funds, stocks and bonds can’t begin to match the yields from your planned, intelligent barter transactions which are made at your company’s marginal cost-of-doing business.

In short, the best best investment you can make today is to spend more time and effort in your pursuit of the most profitable investments - the “barter investment” available in your own business.

The penniless immigrant and founder of U.S. Steel, Andrew Carnegie, said it best years ago in explaining how he amassed his wealth and, in the process, built a powerful national treasure. Carnegie’s advice, “Put all of your eggs in one basket, and then watch that basket!”

For many, there’s no doubt that investment in stocks/bonds is necessary. Since, to put it bluntly, they are captive to wages, employed in various jobs that require such outside efforts, if they’re ever going to have a “nest egg.” In other words, not having an ownership position in a business, they’re not the captains of their own ship.

However, for the entrepreneurial business person it’s a different story.

And taking a realistic and historical look at the investment facts quickly provides you with a different perspective and the motivation to look inward and rely on your own individual efforts and actions.

The fact is that since 1926, long-term bonds have had compound average total returns (including price changes plus income) of just 5% a year. During the same period, returns on stocks average 10.3% a year, compounded.

To top these historically modest yields in one’s own business isn’t particularly difficult, as long as there’s a determined focus to do so. All that’s needed for success is to make a pact with yourself to pursue, with a little more vigor and concentrated effort, “the profitable barter business through your trade exchange.”

If you have any doubts about the passive investment yields vs those of your own “marginal-cost-of-doing business efforts,” begin right now to search every investment strategy imaginable. When you do, you’ll see that the building of a successful business still out-performs all of the alternatives.

Then it’ll be easier to put your plans into action, and confidently build your future NOW! And by doing so you’ll be ready for the day when you choose to retire; immunized against any possible disaster, as well as being able to maintain your present standard of living.
