Its always good to think about investment (either in landed properties or goods and services) but before you start ay investment of yours you must be ready and prepared.
There are requirements you need to fulfil before you can say you are ready to invest and make something out of such investment later on.
Below are some of the things you needed on board to have successful investment.
- Have a budget and an emergency fund
You must have a balance between your expenses and savings. You must know the amount needed to start up and also put in place an emergency fund just in case impromptu stuff comes up. You meed to have in savings the money you can reach out to during your hour of needs.
- Define your goal and make a comprehensive master plan.
You need to be able to envisage your end goal right from the very beginning and then put in a comprehensive plan on how you can reach such goal.
Come up with both short term and long term goals before you start any business of yours, this will help you to be able to checkmate yourself from time to time.
- Evaluate your risk Tolerance level.
Check for how long you can survive even if you already put all money into the business and nothing is coming forth yet, someone that have 2 or 3 line of businesses will surely have high risk tolerance level than someone that depend solely on one singular business.
- Understand your product basis
You must know what you are investing on both in and out, you don't dive into water without you knowing how to swim.
Know what you are doing and what you are in for before you start any business out there so that you will be on the safer side.
Stay safe!
