Who We Are….
The Smart Investment Club seeks to provide investment literacy and opportunities for investment for it’s members. We are an informal group of Smart, Intelligent, Goal-Oriented people who understand the dynamics of financial freedom and work at attaining it by active investment tools and strategies. We take apt money decisions and work with experts at achieving our money goals..
Why Do I Need To Join An Investment Club?
For a lot of people, investing can be a bit inundating. There is the saying that when you go alone, you go fast, but when you go with people,you go far. When you become a member of The Smart Investment Club, you have the necessary support and you don’t have to take this step alone. You get to invest your funds in projects worth millions of Naira and dollars with others; a feat you might not have been able to achieve all by yourself.
Financially independent people are those who have assets that generate cashflow or income that covers their expenses on a regular basis. Imagine having Interest or Income from your Investments covering your monthly bills!
That exactly is who and what we are working at becoming!
At the Smart Investment Club, we operate a hybrid investment club structure.
We are guided to take individual investment decisions in most cases, we run well organised thrift contributions in a few cases and we also consider opportunities to jointly invest when they arise.
