One of the things that puts first time investors off from jumping into the stock market is the pursuit of perfection. We want to make sure we are buying into the right stock at the right time, but unfortunately, perfection really isn’t a thing when it comes to investing. It is safe to say, there is no investor out there who hasn’t made mistakes along the way. In fact, mistakes can sometimes be beneficial to pull away lessons about the stock market. Today we chat with the vivacious Mel Browne about some of her investing mistakes, lessons she took away from them and why some of the money wins make all the mistake worth it. Learn more about Mel Browne here.
