Since I read my first investment book, A Random Walk Down Wall Street, I have been interested in investing. I started out in mutual funds, but the majority of my investable assets are in stocks. I am a value investor: I try to buy when others are selling at a discount and sell when my holdings are trading at a premium. In the interim I like growing dividends. Time will tell how well I stick to my philosophy.
