    As a newbie that wants to invest, you must have these three things in mind
    1. Have a long term mindset.
    2. Be willing to take risk.
    3. Be careful on money usage, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending.
    4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with a financial advisor.

    Interesting interview. Dr. Harvey thank you for show entrepreneurs like myself the simplicity of a humble upbringing help you to hone in on what it means to be a true entrepreneur. Thank you for also sharing that as a tech CEO you was not exempt from the everyday problem solving with your business. Bur you took these problems head on like Sonic with speed and you with the help of your wife and team solved the problem and got things done no matter what. Great interview.

      If you read this comment before you get to that part it indeed seems ridiculous, but in context it’s not . I am not trying to be personal or anything but I think it rather a triggering from an imaginary spark.
