What are the factors that make these people successful in their investments?
A good investor is someone who gives his trust to where he invest his money, and someone who has a positive mindset.
Their characteristic are risktaking and loves trying new opportunities to earn money from money.
They make sure that they know the product or services that company offers before they invest.
Once you understand the value of the product you are investing in, then you should be able to know the level of risk you are taking and base your investment on that.
Staying stuck in your comfort zone will take you nowhere. You are doing the same things every single day, but then expect that things will eventually become better. "I'm going to this crappy day job with a boss constantly yelling at me. Hopefully 10 years from now I'm happy and content in life. #goodluck" Sadly but this is the mentality that most people have. Most people have become too busy watching youtube videos, TV series, etc. to watch educational videos to learn something new. Life is all about learning new things and I think that risking and learning how to invest is one of the skills that you need to become the successful person that you want.
Unless you are working in a huge company and you have a pretty good position, then your job will take you nowhere. Tons of people are working at a dead end job and the only way out is to get out of that job or have a booming investment. Otherwise, you're stuck in that job forever and your financial status will stay the same. If a huge expense comes on, you're going to take a loan. And even before you pay your previous loan, another huge expense is coming. This is why you should learn how to make money from money and have a growing investment while you are still young.
