10 Investment Tips for Beginners: #8. Don’t fall for “hot stock tips”.

Here are 2 reasons hot stock tips are always bogus:

1. If the person giving you the hot tip really knew anything, they’d be guilty of insider trading for telling you – it’s illegal!

2.
If the hot tip wasn’t some secret information about a specific stock, but a “system” to get rich in stocks, then the system would stop working when more people started using it.

The way to true wealth in the stock market is hard work, either by researching, practicing and learning to become a serious investor (think Warren Buffet) or by starting your own company and eventually going public and selling shares in the stock market (think Bill Gates). Everything else is largely a scam.
