I have been investing for a few years now. I notice that a lot of new and seasoned investors make the same mistakes. They are all trying to create the newest method to make money. Why? There are a lot of systems out there that already work. Why not pick a system and use it. Do not question it, just do it. We do not question why are car starts in the morning. We just use it. Here is a link to a video that really made me open my eyes to this fact www.secretrealestatesystem.com

All businessmen including real estate investors are not sticking to one system or methods of marketing. Business is like gambling, you need to try new methods for you to know the effectiveness of it. It doesn't matter if you lose money on it, but in the right turn, you realize the methods of winning technique of marketing.

Indeed, for every new system of investment that failed (derivatives, for example), there is a new system that has worked (old-fashioned growth in new properties or industries). Obviously, you don't want to gamble your money away, but sometimes it pays to take a risk on a new investment.

Derivatives worked out great for the "to big to fails", it is the rest of us that took the beating.

Wheel reinvention is successful when the innovation delivers benefits that outweigh the combination of the Learning Curve Investment and incremental net costs or savings of the new solution.
