Dear @fijimermaid

Finally I've found some time to catch up and read few previously bookmarked posts.
Interesting choice of topic, I must admit.

I like an idea of thinking of our money as a "vessel for growth". It's something we all shall practice.

Another great advice: 'Invest' in things you understand.
However, I do not agree fully with it. I think it's important to burn ourselfs few times before we will really learn anything about investing.

So I would say: invest whatever you can lose and learn as much as you can on the way.

Have a great day buddy,
Piotr
