Savvy Money Making Tips Using Promissory Notes

Changing Times Require Changing Solutions

Fast and Easy Money Making

Be skeptical of promises that offer the opportunity to make easy, fast money; but, making money over time, based on compounding interest and sound investing principles, should be seriously considered. Savvy investing can make you rich; just saving your money probably will not.

Using Promissory Notes Intelligent

The novice investor, and the investor new to promissory note investing, should base their understanding and learning on simple principles, not on complex rules and formulas. One basic principle is: if making money with promissory notes was quick and easy, everyone would already be doing it. As in all worthy calls, education, training and experience are required to become successful.

Getting educated and trained requires work and time; most people are unwilling to do what is necessary. That creates opportunities for those who have done what is necessary to be prepared; they have a larger selection of investing opportunities, plus they have the know-how to do it right.

Start at the Beginning-Start With Yourself

Before jumping into the investing process, start by understanding your own capabilities, assets and liabilities. Write answers to the following questions:

  • Have I written my own investing goals?
  • Are my investing goals realistic?
  • Do I know my current financial situation-assets, liabilities and income?

  • Have I determined how much time I can devote to investing activities?
  • Have I become knowledgeable about the basic terms and functions of promissory notes?
  • Have I become knowledgeable about the basic terms and functions of mortgages?

These questions should be analyzed and addressed openly, honestly and thoroughly before moving forward. They form an investing foundation upon which you will build. If you fail to…

What Is a Promissory Note? What Are They Used for?

A promissory note is a written contract between parties-a borrower and a lender– signed by the borrower. It contains an unconditional promise to pay a certain amount of money on demand, or in installment payments over a period of time. It is used in a financing transaction – a lending transaction. The individual who promises to pay is the maker (borrower), and the person to whom payment is promised is called the payee or holder (lender). The loan transaction can be secured or unsecured. A secured loan has specified property pledged to cover the repayment if the borrower defaults on making the payments. Another form of collateral security is a co-signor. A co-signor, or a guarantor, is a person who agreements in writing to repay the debt if the borrower defaults. This means that the holder (lender) protects his financial interest by using the maker's collateral security or the maker's co-signer. If the maker fails to pay according to the agreement, the holder can foreclose on...

Promissory Note Frauds and Tricks

I have been actively engaged in the promissory note business for over 40 years. My and my wife’s self-directed IRA accounts have been invested in notes for the same length of time. My note investments have been the foundation of my estate building. Because I believe that promissory notes can be an excellent investment vehicle for the average investor, I try will try explain what they are and how they work. But, I will also point out that notes can be misused and abused by dishonest people and by ignorant people.

Keep fees to a minimum – For both mutual funds and exchange traded funds you can look at the 'total expense ratio. "The best case is an expense ratio less than 1%, and certainly no higher than 2%. have to watch out for "sales load". Be aware of your time frame – Match your time frame to the investment.
