Could, should, and would is worth nothing

There are millions of things that could create a bad investment, however most of the time it is one of the above. Luckily, with the Internet, you can research most of these factors within a day or two, as well as give the seller some hard questions that will test the skills of people who are trying to hide the truth about their business. Here is my 2nd rule: I never buy ventures that are failing because the venture is heading towards zero in earnings.


If they are doing bad why buy them on the w taiwan email list ay down? Just wait until they have crashed and burned, then go and buy what is left from the owner at that time. There is no point in paying to lose money, when you can get the venture at rock bottom after they go belly-up. Besides, the company has only one direction to go in after that. My 3rd rule: Grill them hard. Who cares if they say it could, or should, become something bigger.





It is an excuse made for suckers who accept it as their answer to buy. Only care about what is happing now, not what could happen in the future. When looking at any venture you want to get all the data you can. If the company was started 12 months ago then get all 12 months of financials, broken down by income source and expenses month-by-month. Never accept lumped expenses, estimations, or yearly sums in a case like this.
