Invest for the long term [2]

Many people who are not familiar with investments do not enter the stock market. They do not know which shares to buy and when is a good timing. They stay away from shares and other investments that are traded on the exchange. They preferred to get a fixed interest rate from a bank.

However, the low level of interest rate from the bank (i.e. lower than the rate of inflation) is forcing these prudent investors to consider other types of investments. To these risk averse investors, I have some good news!

Tip: If you invest for the long term, you do not need to worry about picking the right stocks or choosing the right timing. You only need to follow some prudent principles that are explained in my FAQ entitled "Invest for the long term". The FAQ can be found in www.tankinlian.com/ask.aspx
