Happy Thanksgiving, Friends

“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever. I Chronicles 16:34 (NIV Bible)

I hope you’ve had a blessed day today. I thank the Lord for each of you.

I wanted to write a book to share what I’ve learned about investing, especially with regard to the balance sheet’s primary role in properly assessing risk. The success of the book is due to its readers.

God enabled me to write the book; today He made me so mindful of how blessed I am to have made so many new friends.

Friends are one of God’s greatest blessings. Again, I thank Him for you. Happy Thanksgiving.

CSW Seminar

I’m excited about Mississippi State holding a third Choose Stocks Wisely seminar upcoming on December 16, 2014. I’ve been privileged to share with excellent audiences previously and have made many new friends with whom I have regular contact now.

Here’s a link to MSU Meridian’s brochure about the event on its facebook page.

I also hear there’s a big football game involving Mississippi State this weekend. It seems they will be playing a team referred to as the Crimson Tide:-)

We’ll talk more of the investing jargon in next week’s post. I hope you all have a wonderful day today!

The Path to Real Security

Because of a dear friend’s influence on me, I have been memorizing the book of Proverbs (a long way to go yet). If my friend (Steve) is reading this, I appreciate you more than I can say. “The proverbs of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel” is how the book starts. From there, the wisdom of God is declared; the wisdom required for experiencing the life only God can provide. […]
