Advice For the Wannabe Millionaire

When an exciting new venture presents itself for your investment
Research the situation and seek outside advice before buying in,
Before signing on the line seek independent, expert assessment
Restrain yourself from going into partnership with any close kin.

The pressure to capitulate in what seems the perfect opportunity
Can be overwhelming when it comes from your family or a friend,
But always keep in mind that your loss will be a burden in futility
If your “nothing can go wrong” adventure comes to a bitter end.

I think it happens all too often, Tom. It happened to me a couple of times before I resolved to take the advice I have offered here.

These words are essential counsel for the young and aspiring billionaire who has time to read and comprehend it: Every line is a poem in itself, and highly creative: I like this verse so much: Restrain yourself from going into partnership with any close kin. Blessings
