Benefits of Dollar Cost Averaging
- Increasing your investment systematically over time
- No need to ‘time the market’
- Applying an autopilot method to your portfolio
- Long term investing made easy
Procedure
- So much time is wasted by investors constantly thinking about the best time to invest. Then when you do invest you worry that the dip you bought will decimate your investment.
- Nobody, that’s right NOBODY knows the bottom of the market. Similar to how nobody knows whether next year’s rainfall will be better than this year.
