Investor, public speaker, and newly-signed Random House author Phil Town has launched the Rule #1 Blog, teaching small investors how to get rich no matter what happens in the market.
Jackson Hole, WY (PRWEB) May 7, 2005 -- Investor and public speaker Phil Town, familiar to many via his appearances at Learning Annex and Get Motivated seminars across the nation, has invested in a new market: the blogosphere.
The Rule #1 Blog: Phil Town on Investing", launched on February 28, 2005, is dedicated to liberating small investors by teaching them how to get rich no matter what happens in the market."
Town, who started investing as a Grand Canyon river guide, turned $1,000 into $1,000,000 in five years and since then has made millions more. He encourages readers to focus their efforts instead of diversifying their portfolios. In addition, he stresses his all-important Rule #1, dont invest to make money, invest not to lose money!"
Other key elements of Rule #1 Investing include:
• Buying into businesses you understand
• Spending only fifty cents to buy a dollar of value
• Tracking the movements of institutional money across the market
• Taking emotion out of the equation
Towns goal as a blogger and author is to make this strategy relatable and accessible to small investors, many of whom are disappointed to find their retirement and 401(k) funds averaging a 0% rate of return.
Early posts and the FAQ address such issues as assigning monetary value to a companys competitive advantage, buying Google stock, and getting out of debt. Overall, Towns message is one of empowerment. For the first time in history, the little guy is at a massive advantage in the market."
