Hello World

Hello, Everyone. 

My first post as a blogger and I'm excited and yet, nervous. I have never ventured into writing posts or articles and hence taking this up as a challenge. I will strive to improve with every post and in the process will make many a mistakes. 

I intend to introduce myself, providing readers with information that can be used to build my "persona". I'm a blessed man in my mid-thirties. My wife and daughter are the only family I have in the USA. My desire is to generate substantial income for a happy retirement, pay for college education and also leave behind wealth & inheritance for my dear wife and daughter. 

I've always had a desire to generate passive income and one of the best ways is dividends generated off a diversified stock portfolio. There are sure other ways and I will explore options as time rolls on. I've come to realize that investing in the stock market is one of the only ways to create wealth and then again one could lose entire savings as well, if not done right. 

I'm a Christian and as a family, we honor the Lord with our tithe, every month. My stock portfolio will include growth, dividend paying and a few speculative stocks. Diversification will be the key! Then again, I will choose to not invest in the tobacco, marijuana, gambling and alcohol industry. 

At this point of time, the blog is a start-up and I've already got a small portfolio. I began investing in October 2014. The next few posts will provide details of the stocks I own. 

My hobbies and interests also include running the 5K and 10K races.

Thank you for reading. I will count on the reader community to guide and provide feedback.
