A lot of people believe that investing is very tricky and you are required to do a lot of calculations. They believe that you need to be a mathematical genius in order to become successful with investment. Well, as an investor you need some mathematical understanding, but these are just minor skills related to budgeting, balance sheet, etc. but these are more related to finance than mathematics.

In order to start investing and make profitable investment, you need a system that can turn your investment into profits with little amount of work.

You need to understand the market, and understanding the market requires you to understand economics. When you have knowledge on the economics, you will understand when to invest, how much to invest, where to invest, etc.

Return on your investment is mainly related to how you compound your profits. If you withdraw your profits, you may not be able to build your portfolio, however, if you continue to reinvest your profits, you asset value will grow.
