Blimey! Are You Financially Skint or Financially Free? Let’s Get This Party Started!
Right, listen up, you lot! I’m absolutely GUTTED for anyone still chained to the clock, trading their precious life for a measly bit of DOSH. I mean, are you having a KERFUFFLE? I’m spilling the REAL tea here, bruv, about the difference between propper Wonga and the stuff that just makes you feel KNACKERED. This ain’t some boring, codswallop finace lecture, nah. This is your mate, after one too many BEVIES, laying down the law. Flippin’ ‘eck!
So, What’s The Beef? Active Versus Passive!
The short of it? Active income is when you’re literally sweating your BOLLOCKS off for the QUID. That nine-to-five slog. You stop working, the MONEY tap stops. Simple as. It’s the equivalent of being a MUPPET on a treadmill, running, running, running, but never actually getting anywhere. Sod it! You can’t be arsed to do that forever, can you? You’ll be DAFT if you think that’s the way to go.
And then, Cor!, you’ve got the real ACE in the pack, Passive income. This is the Wonga that works for you while you’re down the pub, having a snooze, or really, really, REALLY taking the Mickey out of your mates. You do the hard graft once, set up the system, and it just keeps chucking DOSH your way. Madness, innit? It’s like setting up a sneaky little slot machine that only you can use.
1. Invest in Yourself, You Muppet! Your Brain is The Best Bleeding Asset.
To be honest, bruv, you want the best investment? Forget the flash stocks for a minute. Blimey! It’s YOU! The taxman can’t nick your knowledge and inflation can’t touch your skill set. Why are you wasting time scrolling when you could be learning something that makes you irreplaceable? I mean, honestly, it’s just CODSwallop to ignore the one asset that is truly yours. Get smarter, charge more, build something only you can build. Stop being a passive recipient of life and start being the bloody GEEZER in charge!
Spend $200 on a propper course, not on another SKINT night out. Do it now! GO ON!
2. Act Like an Owner, Not Some Skint Stock Flipper. Own a Fortress!
Wanna know the kicker? Buffett, the ultimate Geezer of Wonga, he doesn’t flip stocks like some muppet day trader trying to make a quick QUID. Nah. He buys a BUSINESS. A proper business with an economic moat—that’s just a fancy way of saying a fortress that protects the profits from the other blokes trying to compete. Ignore the daily BOLLOCKS on the telly! The daily price changes are just noise. If you own a piece of something brilliant, you just let it BREW. Don’t be a flipper, be a LORD of industry. Bloody hell, get some proper perspective!
Think like a proprietor. If you wouldn’t buy the whole company, don’t buy the stock. Simple!
3. Margin of Safety, Don’t Be a Daft Sod and Cover Your Arse.
Cor! This is the bit where most people mess up, right? They buy something at full price, maybe over-price, because they’re GREEEDY and DAFT. No! Margin of Safety, mate. It’s not rocket science. It’s buying something ACE for less than it’s actually worth. Like finding a tenner on the floor! This covers your ARSE from any dodgy moves the market makes. It means if your estimate is a bit barmy, you still won’t be completely GUTTED. Only a MUPPET pays full whack. Don’t be that bloke!
Calculate true value, then aim to buy at least 25% below that. NO EXCEPTIONS!
4. Be Fearful When Others Are Greedy, Stockpile The Wonga.
And, listen up, this is the most Barmy piece of advice that works every single time! When everyone’s shouting, panicking, having a proper wobbly and selling their ACE businesses for pennies, that’s when you get ready! You need to have your DOSH ready to deploy. When others are greedy and prices are through the roof, you’re selling or just waiting. But when it’s a bloody hell market meltdown? STOCKPILE THE WONGA! That’s when you make your real money, mate. The trick is having the NERVES when everyone else is being a skint chicken. I’m telling you!
Keep a chunky cash reserve (20% of your portfolio) for panic-buying. **Be a VULTURE!
So, anyway, right? What have we learned? Stop trading your life for a few quid. Start building those little passive dosh machines. It takes time, it takes being a bit barmy and going against the crowd, but trust your mate here, you won’t regret it. I’m just a simple geezer who figured out that the best way to live is to have your money work harder than you do. Because, honestly, who can be ARS*ED to work when there’s a world out there and the pub needs visiting? Get out there and make some proper choices, not some codswallop ones.
