“An Imagine-Ignorant World” currently published in Toyo Keizai ONLINE column

Good morning, this is Matsushita.

Every Sunday we deliver a column on themes related to investment.

Today's theme is,

“A World You Can't Even Imagine.”

Having spent over 16 years in the world of investment,

during more than 10 years of teaching investments,

I have seen many students become incredibly happy

as a result.

This is not merely about profits or money.

I have witnessed that it is not a force driven solely by money.

At the same time, I have also seen many people fail.

Those who forge ahead on this arduous path and

reach their goals

will experience a world they can hardly imagine.

Your goal is connected to this.

Please read on.

“A World You Can't Even Imagine.”

Investors invest to grow their funds. The purpose is simple.

However, unfortunately, this path is harsh, and many investors cannot achieve their goals.

Only a portion of investors succeed in increasing their funds. Moreover, within this group, some

will experience a world they can hardly imagine beyond that.

Investment is an act of increasing money and obtaining money, but what you gain when you succeed is

not only money. A truly successful investor gains the value of their own potential and abilities,

and self-realization—value that money cannot buy.

Investors who further pour this potential and ability into investments will reap greater profits, and

those who pour it into other fields or worlds will achieve further success and happiness there.

This virtuous cycle is not limited to investing, but because investment strongly engages human desires and emotions,

brains, it is more likely to manifest powerfully in the world of investing.

To succeed in investing is not just to obtain money but to obtain success and happiness as well.

This is a world that only those who have experienced it can understand,

and few are able to reach it. However, over the more than 10 years I have taught investing,

many students have stepped into this world. Those students have become astonishingly happy.

This is not merely about money or profits alone.

The investment success you strive for is a door that leads to a world you can't imagine.

As I have written before, this path is by no means easy, and not everyone can reach it.

However, I believe you can reach it. I hope you succeed in investing,

obtain money, and step into the world you can't imagine beyond that.
