I am no spring chicken when it comes to market analysis and experience operating with bulls, bears, and pigs. However, I am a chicken when it comes to one key aspect of my investment process. And it has been that way for decades, even when I had a lot less to lose. I’m a defense-first investor.
If that makes me a chicken, I will wear it proudly. Because, as I see it, investing is much more about extending beyond what you make in the working world, plus other sources of income (real estate investments, a business you run, inheritance, etc.).
