As part of his overall money & risk management, John Atkinson has designed and developed his own Portfolio Management tools to plan and track individual stock selection, optimization and portfolio growth. John Atkinson knows first hand what it means to lose enormously, both financially and emotionally in stock or share market. He lost his Sydney Harbour waterfront home in technology stock crash of 2000 and beyond. He was set back fifteen years financially and had to start almost over again.

John then searched finance education world for best investing online & online trading information to learn how to trade and invest online successfully.

The first step is to protect your capital and survive in market long enough before you can profit.

With knowledge gained, you will know where ledge is - to be able to protect yourself initially from pitfalls of markets that lay ahead to trap unprepared investors.

The second step is learning how you can grow your portfolio and thrive in stock or share market. Jim Berg’s investment strategies have achieved breakthrough results and are very different to way majority of investors operate.

Jim has also recently been invited to write regular articles for ASX own newsletter.

Author Jim Berg says:

“We heard from several people who came out of investing & online trading seminars with some education but wondered what to do next? Others contacted us wondering where to begin or how to improve their current portfolio performance.

We realised many online stock and share market investors and traders are looking for on-going support to help lead them through stock or share market minefield, dodge pitfalls and actually profit long term. That’s why John and I decided to team up together to provide weekly guidance, with easy to follow step-by-step investment strategies for everyone who is looking to invest in any of stock or share markets around world today.

Our aim is to help people from all walks of life develop into best online investor or trader that you can become and to generate returns from your investments that you deserve.”

People with poor credit ratings will find a Home Equity Loan more easily accessible to them because lender is taking a lot less risk themselves. Home equity loans are also beneficial for people with a poor credit rating. A lot of traditional lenders categorise such people as "high-risk". Home equity loans for such borrowers don't pose any risk as in case borrower defaults on repayments, lender can sell house to reclaim money from available equity.

Here are some of benefits of a home equity loan:

A Home Equity Loan is an easy and manageable route to generating extra cash.

Using Home Equity Loan for debt consolidation means that with one single payment each month, you have more control over your monthly budget.

With a remortgage you have same expenses you do when taking on a mortgage: surveys, valuation, mortgage indemnity and solicitors fees to pay. With Home Equity Loan you have none of this, making it easier to arrange.

Repayment period on Home Equity Loan can be anything from 5 - 25 years.

You can use Home Equity Loan for any purpose - for example, debt consolidation, home improvements, buying a car or going on holiday.

Protected payment plans for Home Equity Loan can provide extra peace of mind.

Always consider your options carefully, as your home is at risk if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or other loans secured on it.
