Stick With Your Investing Plan

You will experience hard times and will often question whether or not it is worth it to invest instead of spend.  Stick with it!  Be disciplined, continue your learning and research, and stick with your investing.  Don't give up because of a bad investment or because your investments decline for several years straight.  In the long run, stocks will go up and you will build more wealth by investing your money than by putting it in a savings account.
