A Passive Investing Poem

My Passive Income Journal

Passive investing is the way to go,

For investors who want to take it slow.

It’s a strategy that’s simple and sound,

And can help your money grow all around.

Instead of trying to pick stocks on a whim,

Passive investors let the market win.

They buy a basket of assets to hold,

And watch as their wealth starts to unfold.

With diversification, risk is spread,

And your portfolio won’t end up dead.

You won’t be stuck with a single stock,

And your returns won’t take a sudden knock.

Low-cost index funds are the way to start,

For passive investing that’s smart.

They track the market, so you can see,

How well your investment strategy should be.

There’s no need to worry about a fund manager,

Who could be a hit or a miss, like a wild ranger.

Passive investing is a steady path,

Where your investment returns don’t take a bath.

It’s a long-term strategy that’s built to last,

And it doesn’t require you to be fast.

The market will ebb and flow over time,

But passive investors don’t need to whine.

They simply stay the course and let it ride,

Knowing that they’ll come out on the other side.

The compounding effect will work its way,

And they’ll reap the rewards day by day.

Passive investors won’t try to time the market,

Which is a strategy that’s doomed to be a target.

It’s impossible to predict the future,

So why bother trying to be a soothsayer?

Instead, they’ll stick to their plan,

And avoid the temptation to run amok like a fan.

They’ll stay invested, even when things get tough,

And their long-term returns will be enough.

Passive investing doesn’t require much skill,

But it does require discipline, so don’t spill.

You need to stay the course and be patient,

And avoid the urge to be complacent.

Don’t worry about market ups and downs,

Just stick to your plan and wear the crowns.

Your returns will be steady and strong,

And you’ll be investing all along.

In summary, passive investing is a wise choice,

A strategy that can help your wealth rejoice.

It’s simple and low-cost, with diversification,

A long-term plan for a solid foundation.

Just remember to stay disciplined and patient,

And avoid any temptation to be flagrant.

Stick to your plan and watch it grow,

And your passive investing will be a great show.

THE END (thank goodness!)

Something a little whimsical for a change hey.
