Barrington’s Blog » 2009 » April: "As I continue my studies to pass the CAIA exam - I have been constantly thinking about getting on the airwaves (radio) in order to reach out to the black community about finance and investing issues that concern us. There isn’t enough financial/investing education being put out on our stations! Yet blacks are the biggest consumers and lowest paid individuals in the USA…this just doesn’t add up.
So with that said, I am soon to write and submit my proposal to the predominantly black radio stations in the ATL - 103.3, 107.9, 102.5, 107.5 - to request a portion of time to answer questions and address issues from our community. Initially, I would like to to have maybe 5-10 minutes a week, maybe on a Friday, and have a segment on a station to give finance/investment education.
I believe that I am qualified to endure such a challenge given my educational background and my current studies, plus I have a distinguished name - Barrington Lewis - and a great charm.
I’ll keep you posted on the status….

Sorry for the slow posts!
Barrington’s Blog » 2009 » April: "Just to inform my readers - I realize that I have not written anything in a while. Sorry!~ I am boggled down with my study for the CAIA! But I will definitely put a few posts up every month beginning in May 2009 - I appreciate your patience.
I just bought 2 new stocks MEE and REP - I think they’re very undervalued and looking to make daddy (me) some big profits! Please continue your investing folks - it is no excuse for us not to be putting money into this stock market while they are cheap. BUY LOW - SELL HIGH
Until next time…."

Why don't we get it...?
"Is making money a secret? Is the lack of financial education leaving people powerless with insufficient funds when it comes to their retirement? We need to fix the problem America, and starting with that person you see in the mirror everyday…myself included. If you study money - you study how to become a Winner in life.
I’m taking on the task to become even more financially sound so that I can have my money make money - my challenge to myself is to achieve the distinction and honor of becoming a CAIA. Because I love investing and believe it is the first step for me to acquire wealth and also eventually acquire property, obtaining the CAIA will definitely help me achieve that goal.
The hard part will be saving up the money to pay for this expensive exam - but I’ll definitely get the money and as of this writing, I plan to take my first exam this September 2009."

As Bush would say..."Stay the course!"
"Investing in the stock market right now looks scary right now, and it looks like putting your money in the stock market would be the wrong idea. Add to that all of the negative press from the media, plus the doom and gloom from so-called economists, and you’re ready to pull your money and 401k out of the stock market.
But as Pres. Bush would say…”Stay the course”. Although the markets look bad and there is no immediate end in sight, I recommend you stay the course and keep investing in the stock market MORE than you have before. As you know, stocks are dirt cheap and are at their lowest point in years! So pick and choose wisely, and stay the course.
Winners know that when the market is doing good, the media will tell you that it is better than what it actually is. And when the market is doing bad, media will tell you that it is worse than what it actually is. Losers actually listen to the media and invest accordingly.
As Warren Buffet would say, “be fearful when others are greedy and be greedy when others are fearful!"
