Hello - rayray - 04-10-2015
Hey there, just joined the forum after a quick Google search. I've always been interested in reading about investing from years ago then got away from it as life went forward. Early last year I was almost obsessed with reading anything about IOE/IOT and M2M based then some how began reading about dividend producing stocks. As I reminisced about my mum-mum showing me different products/items in the kitchen and then looking at products/items in the bathroom and her pointing to who was the product manufacturer, she pointed out it was the same companies over and over again. Then she told me something that I view as more important to me then it ever was...
"Raymond, if you have to work for your money then you'll never have enough but if you can put your money to work and have your money make money, then you have something special."
Money making money--passive income!
So, here I am. Hope everyone is well.
Raymond

HelloHello, rayray! Welcome to the forum.
What search terms were you using on Google? I'm guessing "smart, handsome, sophisticated"
We had talked about that here fairly recently, IIRC.Looking to hear more from you.

Oh yeah?!? Who bought AAPL in the 90's and held on for years whilst the other thought it was a niche toy company.

Boy I wish I had a mum-mum like that! Nobody ever discussed money when I was growing up and I was super late to the party.
Welcome Raymond!
