Eight Steps to Seven Figures

• Start Investing NOW.
• Establish a goal, any goal. It does not matter what it is as long as it matters to you.
• Buy only stocks and stock mutual funds.
• Swing for singles. You'll strike out fewer times and hit some home runs in the process.
• Invest every month, no matter how small the investment.
• Buy and hold…and hold…and hold…and hold.
• Take what Uncle Sam gives you.
• Limit shocks to your finances.
