Planting A Money Tree: Investment Ideas To Explore

Are you looking to try and grow your money or create a nest-egg or an emergency fund? Investing carries risks, but it is often an effective means of increasing your income. If you’re searching for inspiration, here are some investment ideas to explore.

Real estate

Real estate is one of the most popular investment opportunities, and it can be incredibly lucrative. There will always be a demand for housing, and if you make the right move at the right time, you could make a lot of money. When buying real estate, there are two main options. You can buy and then sell a property, or you can buy to let. If you’re looking to purchase a house and then sell it on, look for potential and consider locations that are sought-after. Define your target buyer and search for properties that have features or benefits that will appeal to that customer. If you’re undertaking renovations, focus on projects that will add value, for example, extending a family home to create a large open-plan kitchen or converting a loft room into a home office. If you’re planning to buy to let, it’s wise to go into the property search with an ideal tenant in mind. Research rental prices in different areas and think about what your tenant would be looking for. If you’re renting to young professionals, for example, proximity to transport links, shops and restaurants will make your property more appealing.

Business

Have you always wanted to set up your own business, or are you keen to invest in aspiring entrepreneurs? Launching a business isn’t easy, but it can give you more freedom and flexibility than a traditional 9-5 job and you could potentially earn a lot more money. Before you start a business, analyze your own financial situation. Are you in a position to fund your plans, or will you be looking to borrow money or secure investment from an external company or a partner? If you’re already in debt, and you’re struggling to stay on top of your finances, it’s best to explore streams that don’t involve taking out a personal loan and researching programs like the Debt to Success System that can help to improve your financial situation. If you have money to invest, and you like the idea of backing a new venture, meet with entrepreneurs, take a look at business plans, go through the facts and figures and look for opportunities to capitalize on growing markets.

Stocks and shares

Buying stocks and shares is a popular type of investment. If you don’t have experience in this field, it’s wise to do some research, to make use of demo programs to help you get to grips with how the stock market works and to consider seeking expert advice. Set a budget, take your time to make decisions and analyze risks before you make your move.

Are you on the hunt for investment opportunities? If so, it’s beneficial to explore a range of options and to make decisions based on how much you want to invest and your objectives. From real estate and stocks and shares to setting up your own business or backing a venture, there are several avenues to consider.

Hi, I’m Christine

Have you been a wholehearted mother, but time, toddlers and teenagers have moved on? If you are wondering what comes next for you, you’ll feel right at home here.

Or, are you a mom for whom family life has been non-Pinworthy and parenting has been downright painful? I hear ya. There are many of us around.

Are you looking for a life full of exploration and adventure after the nest empties, but maybe you have no idea how to go about doing that? Stick around! We’ll explore adventures together to help you gain more clarity for your own path.

After a couple decades of writing books and articles about parenting, homeschooling and adoption, speaking to homeschoolers and other parent groups, and reaching out to the mom in the trenches who was trying to make the best of it - my kids grew up. Some grew up and grew away. I was determined to find a way out of the pain, emptiness and lack of direction.

For many of us, the journey starts with something we moms are not accustomed to. After years of caring for and serving others, sometimes we forget the beauty and wonder of US. We need to spend some time getting to know the parts of ourselves that have lain dormant, and take the time to explore interests and passions that we set aside.

I’d like to invite you to get the “What’s Next for Mom” workbook and jump into this growing tribe of Moms who are emptying the nest and filling the life! Let’s reignite your Mojo after Mothering!
