On Saturday we celebrated the anniversary of the Egrets 2010 Investment Club, and here is a letter I had prepared for them. The great part is that I read it to them.
Dear fellow investors,
As we gather here together to discuss our investments and plan for the future, I want to take a moment to inspire and encourage us all. Investing can be daunting at times, but it’s important to remember that with determination, hard work, and a little bit of luck here and there, we can achieve great things together as friends and most importantly as women.
Let’s not fear taking calculated risks and thinking outside the box. Innovation and creativity are essential to success in the investment world as one of us normally says, “future is female”. We are all here because we share a common goal – to build a better future for ourselves and our loved ones our dearest sons and daughters. Let’s keep that goal in mind as we make our investment decisions. There is a saying that, “Money is the best deodorant.” – Elizabeth Taylor. I can’t add anything to this…
We should always remember that investing is not just about making money, it’s about creating value and making a positive impact. Let’s seek out opportunities that align with our values and contribute to a better world. As someone’s name suggests TUHAME. This is a good initiative and we know it will be a great one.
As we move forward, let’s continue to support and inspire one another. Together, we can achieve great things and make our investment club a force to be reckoned with as the great women of this country (read World) And of course, as we continue to eat and laugh together. Here’s to a bright and prosperous future for us all! Happy Anniversary to the amazing investment club in Uganda.
Sincerely, Leah
