Chapter 9 The Bull Market Is Coming?Do you buy it or not? (2)
The trapeze man teaches you how to sneak in to learn investment

After graduating, I landed my dream job, a travel job that often flies all over the world.I've always loved this job because I can see a lot of people.But as I grew older and experienced more, I felt less and less secure, and my desire to pursue my inner dream became stronger and stronger.

I have always had two small dreams in my heart: one is to travel around with my parents without working and still having money.I want to take my parents to the places I have been to to have a look, taste the local food and experience different cultures.I also have a dream, which is related to my future career.I hope I can engage in such a caring career and open a parent-child playground in Shanghai.Parents can bring their children to play games, read and communicate together, and interact with each other.

However, my financial foundation is still very weak now, and I can't let me abandon my current job willfully to pursue my dreams, so I long for wealth and freedom.I hope that one day I can realize wealth freedom through low-risk value investment as soon as possible, and then have the time and ability to pursue my dreams.

There may be many ways to achieve financial freedom, but for such a person whose work takes up most of his time, after much deliberation, only learning to invest is the more likely and reliable way.Another reason is that my parents have had a very unsatisfactory record in stock trading over the years. I hope to help them get rid of this trouble.So I started to look for ways to invest in stocks through various channels such as the Internet. After searching blindly, I found Changtou.com. After listening to Mr. Xiaoxiong's free class, I felt that I had found the right place. This is me Hope to have the investment philosophy and investment skills.

This is the original reason for me to learn long-term investment, but for me, the learning of the course does have certain challenges.Because I am a trapeze artist, the working environment is not fixed, the time is not fixed, and I have to deal with various unexpected situations (such as jet lag, acclimatization, etc.).In the eyes of many people, it is almost impossible to complete the long-term investment course under such circumstances!

But I finished the course faster than many people, and I also read all the books in the bear's book list.Many people are curious about how I did it, and what I want to share with you next is how to use effective time management methods and learning methods for efficient learning.

1. Brain-changing learning method

At an average speed of two classes a week, it took me two months to take the introductory, elementary and advanced courses.In addition, I have read all the books recommended by the bear book list, and I have read "Financial Report is Like a Storybook" as many as three times.

How did I do it?In fact, my method is very simple, which is the brain-changing learning method.Long Tou's courses and assignments may be difficult for many people, but it is not a problem for me.To put it more flatly, in fact, I regard the study of long throw as a relaxation of the brain, hehe...Because my usual work pace is very fast, and I often fly around the world, so the high-intensity working environment determines my high efficiency. The way I do things, I never allow myself to procrastinate.I will use the fragmented time to read, and the books on the book list are basically finished by me on the subway.During my work breaks abroad, I usually use it to attend lectures and write homework. In Europe and the United States, I have time to study at Changtou.

2. Connect theory with practice, actively understand and learn
Many people find the apple tree lesson difficult because they haven't connected theory with practice.For example, for the understanding of business logic, you can just imagine, if you were asked to set up a street stall as a boss, what would you think of as a way to make money?In addition to selling goods to make money, can I also help others receive express delivery to make money?

For another example, what is value investing?Value investing is like buying clothes, each piece of clothing has its own real value.How can we judge the value of a piece of clothing?Material, workmanship, brand, these are the factors that determine the true value of this dress.Finally, compare the price displayed in the mall with the value of the clothes, and you will know whether the clothes are worth the money.And how to judge the value of the stock?This is what you can only learn in the long shot.Although the methods are different, the principles are the same.Through association, the understanding of the principles will be more thorough, and learning will be more effective.

Many things are like this. Before you do it, you will find it difficult and absolutely impossible to complete.However, when you let go of your mental burden and start to think of all ways to achieve your goals, you will find that the original worries are unnecessary.Because there are always more ways than problems.The key is, do you want to achieve that goal, or do you have to achieve that goal.

I want to change the status quo, so I must complete the course study of long-term investment.When I don't have a lot of time to study, I decompose the learning tasks and use the fragmented time to study; when I don't have enough time, I tell myself not to delay the learning tasks; when I feel boring when studying theory , I try to explain the theory of investment from the things I am familiar with... So, maybe not having time to study is just an excuse, and laziness is the real reason.I absolutely want to be financially free, so I will continue to look for ways to make it happen.

Finally, I suggest that college students who are short on time can also try my learning method:
1. Tell yourself that you must achieve this goal, don't try, but try your best to do it.

2. Decompose the learning tasks and use the fragmented time to complete the decomposed small tasks.Changtou’s course setting is originally suitable for fragmented learning. Each section is only about 10 minutes of audio. Now it has launched an APP. Whether it is on the subway, on the bus or even going to the toilet, listening to the class is not a problem.

3. Set a deadline for each small learning task, instead of only one deadline for the total task, so that you can gradually take down different small tasks, which can not only avoid too much pressure, but also prevent procrastination from happening indefinitely.

4. When you feel tired, you can switch between tasks of different nature. For example, if you are tired of reading the annual report, you can find some related videos to watch. This is also a kind of brain-switching learning, allowing the left and right brain to take turns Work, take turns to rest.

5. When learning theory, the most effective way is to infer other cases from one instance. Lenovo is to help you learn faster and more solidly, instead of wasting your time.

"Peter Lynch's Successful Investing"

Recommended index: Samsung

This book is probably an introductory textbook for many friends to invest, and its feature is that it can boost everyone's morale to invest.But the problem is that the investment is too simple. Many people rush to invest as soon as they put down this book. If they invest according to the rules in it, it goes without saying.

"Beat Wall Street"

Recommended index: Samsung half
Another book by Peter Lynch, better than the previous one, with a little more dry stuff.The advantage of Peter Lynch's book is that it is very good-looking and enjoyable to read.But I still have to be reminded, don't invest according to the stories in it, otherwise you will suffer losses.

"How to Choose Growth Stocks"

Recommended index: four stars

Another master Fisher's masterpiece is also his only book.The biggest feature of this book is that qualitative analysis is invincible. Of course, Fisher's problem lies here, too much emphasis on qualitative analysis and neglect of quantitative analysis.Of course, the qualitative analysis method of the company introduced in the book is still very exciting.

A book about Buffett, about the history of Buffett.If you are not familiar with Buffett's history, it is recommended to read it.
