Investors Should Avoid “Great Expectations”
Apart from death and taxes, few events in our
world are consistently predictable – and
investment returns are definitely not one of
them. What can you, as an individual
investor, do to cope with the ups and downs
of the financial markets and make progress
toward your long-term goals?
To begin with, you should be aware that the
financial markets have fluctuated greatly –
daily, monthly and yearly – over the past
three decades. Overall, though, the financial
markets trended upward, as measured by
major indexes such as the Dow Jones
Industrial Average and the S & P 500. Of
course, as you’ve no doubt heard, past
performance can’t guarantee future results.
What was responsible for this long upturn?
Most experts cite several factors: sharp
declines in inflation and interest rates, vastly
improved worker productivity (largely brought
on, for at least a few years, by more
advanced and efficient information
technology), growth in emerging markets and
a long run of strong corporate profits.
risk tolerance would normally allow. For
example, you might be tempted to pursue
some “hot” stocks that you heard about
through a friend, co-worker, or one of the socalled experts on the cable television shows
devoted to investing. But by the time you
hear about these stocks, they may not be so
“hot” anymore – and they may never have
been so hot for you, given your individual
needs, goals and risk tolerance. So, instead
of ratcheting up the aggressiveness with
which you invest, look for other investment
techniques to help yourself advance toward
your financial objectives.
• Boost your investments in your retirement
plans. Contribute as much as you can afford
to your 401(k), IRA and other retirement
accounts. The earlier you start, the more
years you’ll be giving your investments to
potentially grow.
• Be open to working longer. If you like your
job, and you’re prepared to be flexible, you
could gain some key benefits by working just
a few more years than you had planned.
Specifically, you can keep contributing to

Free “Bug-out Bag” Workshop, Thursday Evening, Oct. 20
So, what’s all the hype about these “Get Out Of Dodge” bags, that can cost hundreds of
dollars? Find out how a neighbor has created a very respectable and locally-sourced
“Get Home” bag for 40 bucks! With winter coming, this should be “standard issue” in
every vehicle in North Idaho. Check last winter’s issues of the CDA Press to read about
those who’ve died in or near their vehicle; let’s put a stop to these tragedies. Details are
still being ironed out as this article is being written, so go to www.inwPrep.com for
complete info on this FREE event.
Meanwhile, here’s what Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, says on the subject:
“The primary purpose of a bug-out bag is to allow one to evacuate quickly if a disaster
should strike. It is therefore prudent to gather all of the materials and supplies that
might be required to do this into a single place, such as a bag or a few storage
containers. The recommendation that a bug-out bag contain enough supplies for
seventy-two hours arises from advice from organizations responsible for disaster relief
and management that it may take them up to seventy-two hours to reach people
affected by a disaster and offer help. The bag's contents may vary according to the
region of the user, as someone evacuating from the path of a hurricane may have
different supplies from someone who lives in an area prone to blizzards, tornadoes or
wildfires.
“In addition to allowing one to survive a disaster evacuation, a bug-out bag may also be
used when sheltering in place as a response to emergencies such as house fires,
blackouts, tornadoes, and other severe natural disasters.
“Some survivalists also recommend keeping a 'get me home' kit in the car and/or at
work. This is a kit to enable a person to get back home from work in an emergency
where all transport cars and public transport have broken down.”
Russell Spriggs facilitates off-grid, gardening and sustainable living classes.
He is a Vietnam era veteran who has actually lived off-grid with solar power,
gravity-fed water systems, organic greenhouses, dairy goats, poultry, and 40
years with honeybees. Details at www.inwPrep.com .
