Okay, so today I decided to dive into this “Michael Wiggins” thing. I’d heard the name floating around, but didn’t really know what it was all about. First, I hit up my go-to search engine. Just typed in “Michael Wiggins” and, boom, tons of stuff popped up.
It seemed like there were a few different guys with that name, so I had to narrow it down. I saw one was an investor, another was a basketball player, and there were a few others. I decided to focus on the investor guy, figuring he might have some interesting insights.
Digging Deeper
I started looking for articles or interviews with him. I found a bunch of stuff on investing websites, and some podcast appearances too. I skimmed through a few articles, trying to get a sense of his style. Seems like he’s into value investing, focusing on finding good companies at reasonable prices. Nothing too crazy, just solid, sensible stuff.
I jotted down some notes on the key things, I made a list in my notebook:
- Focus on long-term.
- Look for undervalued companies.
- Don’t follow the hype.
- Simple is Better.
Putting It to the Test (Sort Of)
Now, I’m no investing guru, but I do have a little bit of money put away. I figured, why not see if I can apply some of this Michael Wiggins wisdom? I didn’t go out and buy any stocks or anything, but I did take a look at my existing investments. I tried to see if they lined up with his principles – were they companies I understood? Were they reasonably priced? It was more of a thought exercise than anything else.
Honestly, it made me think a bit more critically about where my money is. I realized I had a few things that were probably a bit too “trendy” and not really aligned with that long-term, value-focused approach.
My Takeaway
So, after my little Michael Wiggins deep dive, I’m not saying I’m going to become a master investor overnight. But it definitely gave me some food for thought. It’s a good reminder to stay focused on the basics, do your research, and not get caught up in the latest fads. I’ll probably keep an eye on what he’s saying, just to see if I can pick up any more useful tips.
For now at least I tried.
