Nowhere is it more true than within investment and personal finance. While there are some investment methods that are sold as silver bullets, stuff that’ll work for anybody, not every method of investment is fun or right for every body.
That doesn’t mean that these people are out of luck. It just means that they’ll have to find a different way to accumulate wealth. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to do that.
