The One Investment Mistake You’re Probably Making
Hey there,
Let’s get something straight right off the bat.
There’s one mistake nearly every investor makes at some point. And chances are, you’re making it right now.
What is it?
Over-diversification. Yeah, I said it.
I know, I know—every so-called expert out there is telling you to spread your money across a dozen different stocks, bonds, ETFs, and who knows what else. “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket,” they say.
Well, guess what? That’s the exact reason most investors never see the returns they should.
Here’s the brutal truth: When you over-diversify, you dilute your gains. You might feel safe, but you’re playing the game with the brakes on. You’re not investing—you’re just throwing money around and hoping something sticks.
Let me ask you this: Would you rather have 20 mediocre investments or 3-5 high-conviction plays that can actually move the needle?
The top investors—the ones who really know how to grow wealth—don’t scatter their investments like birdseed. They focus. They find the opportunities that give them an edge, and they double down.
Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying you should go all-in on a single stock and pray it doesn’t tank. But what I am saying is this:
Stop trying to play it so safe that you end up with a portfolio full of watered-down, underperforming investments.
Think about it. What’s your goal here? To feel warm and fuzzy, knowing you’ve got a little bit of everything? Or to actually build wealth?
If it’s the latter, it’s time to get serious. Look at your portfolio right now. Identify the handful of investments you really believe in—the ones with strong fundamentals, the ones that have a clear path to growth—and start making them the backbone of your strategy.
Ditch the dead weight. Cut out the noise. And for heaven’s sake, stop diversifying yourself into mediocrity.
It’s time to invest like you mean it.
Stay sharp,
Tom
