The Timid Investor is about you, your mind, and your money. Wealth, or the lack of it, is the last area of shame, embarrassment, and secrecy in our society. This is predominantly an educational website about economics, investing, and the world markets of all different kinds. As they say, “Knowledge is power.” Our mission is to give you the knowledge, so that you have the courage and wisdom to invest for the long term; so you can take care of yourself financially to the end.
