On Sunday, April 21st 2019, I was invited to attend dinner with Family & Friends as a Guest. Because I did not get permission or authorization from my Hosts to mention their names prior to writing this blog, I will not mention their names at this time.
Nevertheless, following the great meal, I had the opportunity to set down with the Lady of the Home and her Colleague & Visitor, Mr. Larry Bennett.
What thought struck me in my mind regarding the Gentleman was that he built mainframe computers for IBM 42 years ago.
Well, 42 years ago was 1977. I was not old enough to drive a car or pretty much do anything else as a 7 year old.
As I sat with a closed mouth and open ears listening to two renown individuals ( the Lady of the House & Larry Bennett ) converse regarding their accomplishments, I was impressed.
OK, I'm going to shorten the story due to my long tale telling capabilities.
So, there I was observing two 'Liked Minds' or Brilliant Business People. It was like watching ordinary People who do extra ordinary things.
Mr. Bennett is a Wise Dividend Growth Investor. Yeah, yeah, you have heard of Warren Buffett, but it is not often we encounter these Investment Gurus up close like Larry Bennett.
What stood out about his character that goes along with his intelligence was the fact that he was down-to-earth and willing to educate anyone seeking to learn about investments.
Here are some thoughts to ponder regarding the wise advice of Mr. Larry Bennett:
- Try to save 10% of your earnings.
- Become an avid reader regarding Business & Finance.
- Set a goal to obtain a number of shares of a particular company.
- Perform thorough research regarding companies in stock markets; know what you are
getting into prior to involving oneself. - Consider choosing 7 companies that yield or pay dividends.
- Observation or Due Diligence of each selected organization's growth for a 10 year period should be applied.
- Consider discussing the Finance Markets with 'Liked Minds' or Brilliant Business People, privately.
- Spend time with your Family and balance your life.
Finally, to close out this series of 'Wealth Building', please understanding that wealth encompass many more things, then shared in these three (3) blogs:
- 1 of 3 Series: Teaming Arrangement Strategy (Wealth Building)
- 2 of 3 Series: Assets & Liabilities (Wealth Building)
- 3 of 3 Series : A Wise Dividend Growth Investor (Wealth Building)
However, if I was to take one term from each of these blog articles regarding this series to make a final statement, it would be:
Consider teaming while building a reputation of being an asset to a community where you receive dividends in your business, as well as, others.
Thanks!
