The holidays are a great time to be thankful, spend time with loved ones, review your year, and show gratitude for all of the blessings you’ve had throughout the year. I always have a lot to be thankful for. I’m thankful for my beautiful wife Melissa, my family, my Rule #1 team and coaches, my horses, all of the investors who have taught me what I know, and of course all of you.

Since I’m in the Christmas spirit, I wanted to give you a fun new take on an old Christmas carol called, “The 12 Days of Rule #1 Investing”.

Investing is truly the gift that keeps on giving - compound interest, returns, and dividends.

Instead of Partridges in pear trees and turtle doves how about we give gifts that will make you rich and keep on giving you more money for the rest of your life.
