Beginner Investing Mistakes: The Strategy Myths That Keep You Stuck (124)
byInvesting Mastermind

Most beginner investors think they have a strategy.
In reality… they have a collection of ideas they’ve picked up along the way.

“Should I invest in the U.S. or globally?”
“Do I need ETFs, bonds, crypto?”
“How many stocks is enough?”

It sounds like a strategy. It isn’t.

In this episode of the Investing Mastermind Podcast, Signe Lonholdt and Michelle Marki unpack how new investors should actually think.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing a lot… but still not fully sure what your strategy actually is, this one will land.

Incredibly honored to be recognized at the Black C Incredibly honored to be recognized at the Black Card event in Houston this week but honestly, the award means nothing without the people behind it.

Thank you Eileen Wilder @eileenwild for this recognition, for your belief in me, and for the love you pour into everyone around you. 
You are the real deal 🤍

And to the Black Card Community… you are not just a business network, you are truly family. The friendships, the energy, the conversations in Houston… I’ll carry all of it in my heart. 
So grateful to be surrounded by some of the most incredible business leaders. We’re just getting started🚀❤️‍🔥
Beautiful way to end the weekend and what an incre Beautiful way to end the weekend and what an incredible night at the Billion Dollar Impact Black Card Charity Gala! ✨
I am so grateful to have been part of this amazing evening supporting Texas Children’s Hospital and getting the opportunity to connect with such an inspiring group of leaders and changemakers.

It’s such a joy to see the partnership between the Wilder Foundation and Pin Oak Charity Horse Show come together for such a vital cause. 

From the high-energy auction to hearing about the future of pediatric care, I’m leaving tonight feeling super excited about the impact we’re making together. 

So proud to support the healing and hope being provided to children and families right here in Houston!
Over the past few days, I’ve been attending one of Over the past few days, I’ve been attending one of the biggest events in the investment world: Warren Buffett’s annual shareholder meeting in Omaha. While Buffett himself took a backseat this year, having passed the torch to the new CEO, Omaha remains “the place to be” for investors.
Between panel debates, presentations, and networking events, it’s been a whirlwind and truly the highlight of the year for an investment geek like me!
The Highlights:
First, a photo with my fantastic mentor, @gspier , an incredibly respected and brilliant investor.
In the photo with the blue backdrop is the famous investor Bill Ackman, whom I was lucky enough to see speak at VALUExBRK.
Also joined a wonderful networking event with my mentor Matthew Peterson (check out that view! You might also notice that we women are still a small minority here - I’m working on changing this).
And finally, a shot with investor Mohnish Pabrai.
Tomorrow, I’m joining the final Q&A with Vitaliy Katsenelson; his market insights are always second to none. I can’t wait to share all this new knowledge with my clients!
On Sunday afternoon, I’m heading to Houston for a charity gala, followed by a “mastermind” session on Monday and Tuesday with some incredibly inspiring business leaders.
For a long time, we’ve been told that “making it” For a long time, we’ve been told that “making it” means finally handing your money over to a financial advisor.

It’s a myth that many of us, myself included, once believed. We think that once we have the capital, the most responsible thing to do is find someone else to handle it. We look for a professional to take the weight off our shoulders so we can stop worrying.

But here is the conversation no one is having: research shows that 87% of financial advisors actually perform worse than the stock market.

Often, we aren’t paying for superior results; we are paying for a false sense of security. Many women find that once the papers are signed, the follow-ups become rare and the clarity stays just out of reach.

The truth is, no one will ever care about your legacy as much as you do. You don’t need a middleman to find safety in the market; you need the confidence to lead your own wealth. 🤍

On April 26th, I’m hosting a four-hour Masterclass where I’ll show you how to take back that control.

That was all one of my clients needed to boost her That was all one of my clients needed to boost her confidence as an investor. 🥰

It didn’t require us to dive deep into complex math or spend weeks scrutinizing the stock market. Quite simply, it was about her letting go of three specific habits that kept her stuck, letting her money sit idle in a savings account rather than growing in the stock market.

If you also feel like a bystander watching your friends start investing while you’re stuck in place, it’s often due to these three things:

1. You are waiting for the “perfect” time. It doesn’t exist. Waiting for the “right moment” is often just a way to stay in your comfort zone.

2. You think it’s less risky to keep your money in a savings account. Perhaps you grew up with your parents’ warnings about the savings account. And that’s how it was when they were young. But times have changed, and the fact is, your money doesn’t grow in a savings account like it did when your parents were young. It loses value day by day. You can invest with very low risk and focus on not losing money.

3. You believe you need to be a mathematical genius to start, or that there’s a secret only professionals know. There isn’t, but they’d like you to think so. And you don’t need to be a mathematician; you just need to make sensible decisions and dare to invest in your own learning.

On April 26th, I’m putting an end to the myths and secrets.

I’m hosting a four-hour Masterclass where I’ll show you exactly how to replace these outdated habits with an investment strategy. No tangled jargon. No complicated theories. Only the concrete steps you need to take to move from simply protecting your savings to truly owning your financial responsibility.

Are you ready to stop just “watching over” your money and instead let it support the life you’ve created?

It started with one question from a follower: “Can It started with one question from a follower: “Can you teach me how to do what you do?”

I was simply sharing my journey of studying the world’s most successful investors. But I quickly realized that so many brilliant women felt like outsiders in the investment jungle. They had the success, but lacked the quiet confidence to manage their own wealth.

Investionista was born to bridge that gap and move you from feeling overwhelmed to feeling deeply grounded in your financial power.

It’s time to stop being a bystander and start owning your legacy. 🤍

In the beginning of 2023, I was completely burned In the beginning of 2023, I was completely burned out.

I was listening to a Mel Robbins podcast where she shared a simple exercise: Light a candle. Close your eyes. Blow it out, and speak to yourself as if it’s a year from now.

So I did.

I lit the candle. I pressed record on my phone. And I told myself out loud, on camera, how proud I was of how far I had come.

At the time I was recording this video I had hit rock bottom. I was exhausted and, honestly, I felt lost.

Recently, I stumbled across it on my camera roll. In all the mess there was hope. I just sat there, astonished. Because every single thing I had said to myself in that tired, hopeful little video… it had actually happened. The year I described had come true.

“You are one decision away from a completely different life.”

I want you to feel that too.

So, here is the exercise. Right now.

Light a candle. Press record. Close your eyes and blow it out. And tell yourself out loud how proud you are of how far you’ve come. One year from now.

It’ll feel awkward. Do it anyway.

Save this post so you remember to actually do it.

You are only one decision away. 

What is the one decision you’ve been putting off that you 
know, deep down, would change everything?

There is a specific kind of weight that comes with There is a specific kind of weight that comes with being responsible for a significant amount of money.

Whether it’s a settlement, an inheritance, or family wealth you’ve suddenly stepped into, no one really talks about the quiet anxiety of “not messing it up.”

You have the resources. You might even have people around you telling you what to do with them. But if you’re honest? You’re still just a spectator to your own wealth.

You hand it over to an advisor. You tell yourself it’s “handled.” But that disconnect, that feeling that you don’t actually understand the why behind the moves being made, doesn’t just go away. It stays there, making you feel like an imposter in your own life.

I’ve been investing using Warren Buffett’s principles since 2019. It’s not about complex math or being “one of the guys” on a trading floor. It’s about clarity.

Because when a woman actually understands the mechanics of what she owns, the fear vanishes.

You stop second-guessing. You stop deferring to everyone else. You start making the calls.

Does it feel like you’re truly overseeing your future, or does it feel like you’re just watching it happen from the sidelines?

You know what nobody talks about? What financial You know what nobody talks about?

What financial freedom actually feels like on a completely normal Tuesday.

Not the yacht. Not the champagne. 
Not the “I retired at 45” highlight reel.

Just a regular Tuesday.

You wake up.
And you don’t immediately start doing the math in your head.

You know the math.
Can I afford this? Should I have spent that? What if something goes wrong next month?

That math.

The one that runs in the background of every decision you make, big and small, like an app you never actually closed.

Financial freedom isn’t a number in your account.

It’s the morning that math stops.
It’s making a big decision, a career move, a trip, a choice for your family, and feeling clear instead of anxious.
It’s reading about a market dip and thinking “okay” instead of spiraling.
It’s knowing, without checking, that your future is being handled.

Not by your advisor.
Not by your partner.
Not by anyone you have to trust blindly.

By YOU. 🤗

I remember the first Tuesday that felt like that.
It wasn’t dramatic.
I just woke up and realized the math had stopped.
And I thought, oh. So this is what it feels like.

If you’re still doing the math every morning, I want you to know that’s not just how it is.
That’s just where you are right now.

And it can change.

The most accomplished women I know still feel like The most accomplished women I know still feel like beginners when it comes to their own money. This is the conversation nobody had with us. Part 1 of 4.

You don't need to be FAST to build wealth. In fact You don't need to be FAST to build wealth. In fact,  speed is usually what loses you money 👀

Many women who come to me think investing is about being fast.

Catching the right stock at the right moment.

Knowing something other people don't.

Timing the market perfectly.

...That's not investing. That's gambling.

The women who build real, lasting wealth do something completely different.
Investor Charlie Munger built one of the greatest investing track records in history not by being the smartest person in the room. But by being the most patient.
That patience isn't a personality trait you either have or you don't.

I know because I used to not be very patient. But having an investment system  will give you the grounding you need.

When you stop guessing, you stop rushing.

(And that's when the real wealth building begins)

Patience isn't something you find.
It's something that comes when you finally have a strategy you trust completely.
