Did you know that there are more people
afraid of investing in the stock market than they are of dying? Well,
statistics say so. This was one of the implausible outcomes of a survey conducted
by Harris Interactive on behalf of Nationwide Financial.
Most of us would never express this fear
out in the public since this kind of phobia doesn’t even appear in the
consideration list. The underlying reason could be that the very thought of
trading, hedging and speculating were synonymous to a mystical black box. And
this box staged the fight between the mighty bull and the sluggish bear.
But hey, it’s time that we break this myth
and reveal the bounty opportunities that lie dormant in this mystical box.
On this note, we introduce you to “The Moolah Matters” which will serve as a
