The Physics of Investing
We know that excitement when you’re watching fútbol with your family and Messi strikes a crisp kick and plants the ball into the back of the net. When the announcer yells “GOOOOOOOOOOLLLLL” it’s a huge rush and makes you feel happy. You might even try to yell “gol” out the entire time yourself… we definitely have! 😉😁
Fútbol is actually pretty similar to working with your money. Hold up! ✋ We know you’re probably thinking, how does Messi or Ronaldo making a goal have anything to do with how I handle my money? 🧐 Well, no worries mijit@, let us tell you. Put on your favorite fútbol jersey and read on. 🤓
It’s a simple rule in soccer: keep the ball moving. ⚽️ Keeping the ball moving means scoring a goal, and scoring a goal means winning the game. If you let the ball juggle in one place, you’re not doing anything except stalling time and keeping you from scoring. In fact, you’re not even really playing the game. 😐 It’s the same with your money. Think of the money in your checking or savings account as a soccer ball ⚽️ (stick with us here). Your money—the ball—can just sit there. You’re still kinda playing the game but not really. Sure, you can add more to it and it gets bigger over time, but it’s still staying static there. No one is touching it, and it’s not doing much for you. You’re not tapping into the potential of what it could become. 💯
Imagine if Messi at the last Copa América kept the ball to himself during the final game against Brazil. There wouldn’t have been a real game and Argentina wouldn’t have won! You have to keep the ball moving. Again, think of the money in your checking and savings account as a soccer ball. ⚽️ The way to stay in the game and WIN is to keep it moving forward. ➡️ Imagine if Messi is representing investing your money. He plays the game and keeps the ball moving forward so that you can get more returns. You have to play the game with your money to advance your future and build generational wealth. 🙌🎉
Your money in the bank can stay there and be static, but if you want to play the game and win, you have to put your money forward and invest to get more returns. 💰🤑
