A profit is a terrible thing to waste.

A correction is the flip side of a rally --- you should be able to dance to both tunes.

There's no such thing as a bad profit --- or a "smart" loss.

Increasing your "base income" is the only sure way to beat inflation.

Key market events and/or turning points are only visible in rear view mirrors.

Most unrealized gains wind up in the realized loss portion of the tax return.

The first thing about getting started with an investment manager is developing a keen understanding of his methodology --- he or she should be able to explain Quality, Diversification and Income Generation rules used for both selection and retention of securities. No manager is actually managing unless they are selecting securities --- different from selecting products managed by others. Sanco Services consults on a hands on decision-making strategy with equities and a selection of Closed End Fund vehicles for income investing.

A manger should also have a clear set of rules as to buying price and sell targeting. You can obtain all of the insight you need as to my methodology from my published articles and "The Brainwashing of the American Investor".

The first thing the manager should need to know is your objectives. You should have a pretty good handle on that before you pick up the telephone. A manager won't lead with a product, he''ll describe a philosophy about markets, cycles, and expectations. There are no guarantees in the securities markets; alte ative investments aren't -- they are speculations; and growing income annually, regardless of your age, must be part of your investment plan.
