This week, I am not going to discuss any new financial topics or issues. Instead, I would like to know your thoughts on some issues I am considering. Some are new to what I have been thinking of, and others are small changes to the website. In this process, I am looking for feedback from you and what your thoughts are on the things I am proposing to either do or am contemplating trying. So, at any time, feel free to leave some feedback or email me if you are interested in anything that I am thinking of implementing.
New Book
I am in the process of writing a new book on value investing or investing for long-term prospects. This book will be based on several factors that I have used or have researched on how to implement best the value investing techniques. I will also go into how to calculate an intrinsic value for a stock you are thinking of purchasing.
A key to value investing or investing in a long-term strategy is when to get into and out of a stock position. In this book, I will attempt to go into how to determine these processes of entry and exit to a small degree. The reason for the brief part of this is an entire book could be written on just when to enter and exit a stock position.
Where do you find these stocks that are considered a value investment? I will go into some ways in which you can find and research stocks that can be considered a value investment. And a large part of value investing and the gains you can make in doing taking this approach is the re-investment of dividends. Yes, dividends can and do play a big part in an investment’s overall return. This book will combine the aspects of value investing, along with investing for income and gains through the payment of dividends.
These are some aspects of the new book I am working on at the moment. I am not sure how long it will take me to finish it and get it ready for publication, but if you are interested in reading a final draft and providing me feedback, please email me directly at kirk@kgmeyerpc.com. I am looking for between five and ten people to read and make comments on the final draft before I go to the editing process and then publication of the new book.
Personal Finance Course
I know that I wish I had the chance to have a course dedicated to the topic of personal finance when I was in high school or even college. I have found a textbook on the subject and think I can take from that textbook and make a worthwhile course on this extremely important topic.
While the textbook is for a college-level course, I think it can serve as a good basis for this subject. The course will be designed to help a novice in personal finance achieve the ability to become competent in the subject matter. As my logo and company’s slogan state, “Personal Finance Made Simple®.”
I will take this textbook and create an easy to follow course that anyone over the age of fifteen will find beneficial. As I stated, I wish I had the opportunity to have a course like the one I am going to develop that would have helped me after I graduated from school or even college that would have better prepared me for a wide variety of personal finance topics.
In the course, I am envisioning going over such topics as balancing a checkbook, budgeting your income and expenses, saving for large expenses, education and retirement, and ways in which you can invest in the stock market. This will not necessarily be a brief course by any means but rather an in-depth look at a wide range of topics that make up the subject of personal finance.
If you were interested in such a course, I would love to know your thoughts on the subject. And like the new book, I will be looking for five to ten people to use a beta version of the course to assist me in its development. The format will be a combination of presentation videos, written assignments, and periodic quizzes. To be placed on my list of beta test users for this course, please email me directly at kirk@kgmeyerpc.com.
Where you can place any excess cash
I know that many are in a situation where they most likely do not have any “excess” cash to invest.
