Bruce Thomas's bio
I am an active and happy person, husband and father. One day I had the bright idea of quitting the Sheriff’s Department and going medical school. I went the University of Reno Nevada, and maintained a 4.00 GPA but going through a divorce and medical school caused me to have a stroke. I was unable to physically perform the duties of a physician and went back to college attending National University receiving my bachelors in business administration and finance. I then went on to A.B. Freeman obtaining my MBA in finance, I hold degrees in Human Biological Medicine, Theoretical Mathematics, and Finance. I have advanced professional training in Marketing, Finance, and Accounting. I eventually recovered over the years from a stroke that had limited my physical functions, having then multiple academic degrees.
I had very little understanding of investments, other than the stock market, statistically is always the best return on investment. Housing averages a four percent return, insurance has to be by law very conservation, receiving returns on preferred stock and bonds, but primarily but outliving payers. Wall Street can easily average eighteen percent or more. In my attempt to learn and do well, I studied Warren Buffett’s approach at first just imitated, which is the basafund portfolio, my portfolio is basafund2 and other analyst picks are in topvalues. I learned that Mr. Buffett is right on Value Investing and suggest everyone read the book. There are several things, time money, retained income, investments held by a company, but more than anything little debt, or lowest in their area. Diversification is important for returns, but research is not that complicated, well it is easier if you look a column of figures and just know the answer off the cuff, but a calculator will figure the same out for others. Your best friend is time, which makes us either look like fools or genius.
The trick is do your research, and hold to fruition. Do not panic unless you want to lose your shirt. Upon approaching the goal with an investment it is necessary to do more research to repeat in a new arena. Every ones goals are different. Even the best investors do not think they are not making them because their net work is down. Some investors are making income, and some interest off what they already have. All business people become more conservative once they make their fortune and time is your best friend.
