The Source for Freedom and Self-Reliant Information[1]

 

Thomas Jefferson defined rightful liberty as “unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others—I do not add ‘within the limits of the law,’ because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual.”

Kid Investor Guide: How Buying Stuff Can Pay You

A fun way to understanding investing

You’re Not Just a Customer. . . You’re an Owner

When you invest in a company, you own a tiny piece of it. That means when the company makes money, you make money too.

And here’s the coolest part:

When you buy something from a company you own… you help yourself.

If you own McDonald’s and you buy a Happy Meal, some of that money goes to McDonald’s. Because you’re an owner, the company uses that money to:

·      Grow bigger

·      Make more profit

·      Pay you dividends

·      Make your shares worth more

It’s like the company saying: “Thanks for buying our food—here’s your share!”

Everyday Life = Helping Your Companies

If you own these companies:

·      Coca-Cola – every sip helps your company

·      Hershey – every chocolate bar helps your company

·      Nike – every pair of shoes helps your company

·      Apple – every iPad or app helps your company

·      Microsoft – every Minecraft session helps your company

·      Target/Walmart – every shopping trip helps your company

·      PepsiCo – every bag of Doritos helps your company

You’re not just using their products— you’re helping your own investments grow.

Why This Makes You a Smart Investor

Most people only buy things.

But you’re doing something different:

You’re buying things AND owning the companies that make them.

That means:

·      You’re learning how money grows

·      You’re building something for your future

·      You’re becoming an owner, not just a shopper

That’s a superpower most adults don’t have!
