Mark Tier on Effective Investing, Where the World Is Headed and Why Financial Literacy Helps

Onebornfree commentary: for myself, the best part of this long but highly informative interview of investor Mark Tier [conducted by The Daily Bell], is his observation of the extreme importance of investor psychology in all successful investing/speculating.

Indeed, as an educational service, Financial Safety Services spends most of its time with clients analyzing their individual psychologies/belief systems [i.e their preconceptions, assumptions and fundamental beliefs about markets, economics, human action etc. etc.] , in order to try to help them achieve better results with their speculations.

Mr Tier also provides a link to a short investment psychology test he invented that attempts to analyze your own strengths and weaknesses. It is well worth a "go", as is the entire interview.

In fact I agree with just about everything Mr Tier [who I had never heard of before] says in this interview [!] , so much so that if you read anything in it you do not agree with, feel free to email me at : onebornfree at yahoo dot com and we can perhaps discuss your questions/problems/observations/ disagreements.

More About Financial Safety Services

[Free phone consultations via "Skype". To set a time/date email: onebornfreeatyahoodotcom ]

Financial Safety Services is a private , mostly off-line, international, person to person consulting service that attempts to show its real-time [i.e. non-internet derived] clients how to speculate safely with money that they can afford to lose. Money that the client cannot afford to lose should never be risked in these speculations

For more than 20 years, nearly all of Financial Safety Services clients to date have been found via direct [i.e off-line, in-person] referral from previously satisfied clients only.

No attempts are made to procure clientele via the selling of the sporadic, deliberately incomplete online information posted at this site. All valuable information is sold to clients, via e-mail, or preferably in person, on a "need to know" customized basis, depending on their specific speculative wants/needs.

Therefor any/all posts at this site are for the reference and possible benefit of pre-existing , real-world, paying clients only as part of my services [and to perhaps help emphasize a particular point I make to them in private], and never for the benefit of the general reading public and casual internet reader at large.

Internet posts arer not made on a regular schedule in order to build an on-line audience; only when I feel that so doing is beneficial to my actual existing clientele.

I have no interest in gaining clients first hand from any posts made either here or elsewhere [if it happens, it happens!] - as i previously stated, to date [20 years+], nearly all of my previous clients have come to me via direct, in-person referral from other satisfied clients- that is, [1]an existing client personally recommends my services to a close friend, [2] the friend contacts me, [3]we discuss their wants/needs, [4] I make a decision as to whether or not I can really help them, [5] We come to a financial agreement- or not :-) .

None- Client Questions?

Should a casual reader/none client have a serious question about an assertion I make on this site, they must write to me at: onebornfreeatyahoodotcom and I will do my best to answer their question. Their first question will usually be answered for free. After that, fees may apply.

Current Client Questions.

All existing, paying client questions are of course, answered for free [usually via private e-mail]- it is part of the service!

Your 100 per cent. Chance of Being Robbed by Your Government

"....So when the government tells us it’s protecting us from the world’s most ruthless criminals, we ought to wonder if perhaps we need to be protected from criminals a little closer to home. The chances of your being harmed by terrorists are mathematically minute. The chance of your being robbed by your own government? That’s easy: 100 per cent."

A sobering quote from from an article by the the great, and now [sadly] deceased conservative writer Joseph Sobran. [Such a shame that Mr Sobran, who died of complications from type 2 diabetes, never understood that the entire, government controlled medical establishment whose treatments he never even questioned,or more accurately, his faith in that whole nasty morass of drugs and regulations and regulated "treatments" , is what actually killed him. Any person with an ounce of sense outside of that controlled establishment who understood the ultimate causes of type 2 diabetes [ heck even myself!] could have easily shown him how to "cure" his condition.
