On Feburary 26th, 2006, I decided that I would start my habit of savings. I had come to realize, at that point, if I didn't create the habit when I didn't have any money, when I did, I probably wouldn't do it either.
So, I started my journey and started blogging my savings on Myspace. During the following months, I had intially started saving at least 10% of what ever came through my hands. I didn't have a job at the time but was looking. To this date I have saved over $1,000.
I have bought some stocks to try and increase my return only to buy two stocks, TCX and ATAR to loose value in them. Even though I've been a licenced stockbroker in my lifetime, I still lack the skills of picking picking. It's only been a few months but I'm still learning.
After reading the book "How to Achieve Absolute Financial Freedom" by Joseph J. Janiczek, I realized that I have to focus on my ability to earn. I knew that I was never going to acheive the type of financial freedom that I was looking for with the current job that I had found (telemarketing). So, I began my search for a business opportunity that fit in line with my beliefs in financial education. I found what I feel is the perfect opportunity. The Financial Freedom Society
I then started looking for website that fit more in line with my pursuit of financial education and came across this site. So here I land ready to learn more and meet like-minded people.

If you are a small investor mutuals and index ETF's are probably the best way to go. Lowers your risk a good bit!
