Investing and making videos

When it comes to investing, the best time to start is yesterday. The second best time to start is today. And I think the same might be true for making videos.

In investing, starting early means you can take greater advantage of recurring interest, the eighth wonder of the world that can end up giving you more money than you start with.

The amount of organic reach you can get on Facebook and Instagram has plummeted to near zero in the past few years. Which is to say, if I had started making videos a few years back, I probably could have been much further ahead than I could were I to start now, given the same timeframe of course.

So the lesson is, if you’re going to do something do it yesterday! Barring that, start it now 🙂

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hi, I’m Tim Bunting AKA the Kiwi Yamabushi, a New Zealander who became a Yamabushi Ascetic in the Dewa Sanzan mountains of north Japan. I’m part of the Yamabushido team, and we host life-altering Yamabushi training on the Dewa Sanzan (website link). People come to us for the ultimate mindfulness experience, to reach the next level, or simply connect with nature and themselves.

I’m on a mission to summit all 100 Famous Mountains of Yamagata Prefecture to spread the splendour of this fabulous location, and in dedication to all those who lost their lives out in nature, including my father.

On my daily blog I post thoughts of a practicing Yamabushi that I hope people can use to better themselves and live as fulfilling a life as possible.

Sign up to the weekly Mountains of Wisdom newsletter, follow me on social (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, TikTok, Clubhouse, all @kiwiyamabushi), or send me an email via the link below to stay in touch.

Tim.
