Why to invest in stock markets at all?

Many of my friends always ask - Why should we invest in stock markets at all ? You do not have any control on how things work and more often than not , you loose money , so we are better off with bank fixed deposit only.

Yes, Agreed that stock market is not an easy place to make money. But then , Nothing comes easily. Do you think doctor's job is easy ? Do you think Engineers's job is easy ?

We study for years. Spend lots of energy, money and time on our studies and land a job. And yes, No job is less than 12 hours a day. What after that ? Insecurities ! Boss ! Work - life Balance ! KRAs!

When it comes to stock markets , we say 

- I do not want to spend time
- I don't have much money to invest.
- I do not want to learn as nobody knows anything.
- I have never attended any training, but follow my neighbour's advice.
- I do not have patience.

BUT

I want extraordinary results.

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE ?

Stock markets are no more part timers space.

You are happy with a bank fixed deposit which doesn't give you returns more than inflation. Plus you also pay taxes on that. In real sense, value of your money is depleting.

So , what to do. INVEST WISELY.

Investing in stock markets only can give you returns which will beat inflation plus taxes and in real sense , your money will make something for you. 

So, its not a matter of choice, but for any intelligent person with some financial acumen, its a compulsion.

Now , the question is not whether I should invest in stock markets but the question is how I should invest in stock markets. 
-What are the tools required ? 
-What are the instruments i should use ? 
-What kind of knowledge is required ? 
-What other inputs are required ?


Ok , we will talk about these details next time!
