#MyInvestingStory showcases the Investing Story of Successful Long-term Investors, who are everyday people. Ann and Ionnie McNeill, are both Lifetime Members and Volunteers of BetterInvesting, a non-profit focused on Investment Education for Individuals and Investment Clubs. Each week we interview a Special Guest, shining light on their investing story, lessons learned, words of wisdom and resources to aid you in starting your investing journey.
It was the 90s and stocks were hot, so were investing clubs. The NAIC model club on Long Island taught an investing class based on NAIC principles at Adelphi University. She attended and proceeded to do nothing. She needed to find a club to hold her accountable for her investing education. She attended the fall class in 98 and didn’t find a club that needed new members. She created a flyer and eleven interested individuals gathered to form what became the Alchemy Investment Club in December 1998. Many came and left when they realized that investing was a slow long-term gain. Being a part of a club of strangers helped her because she knew she didn’t have the luxury to be lazy. So far, things are going well and they are following through with their assignments each month.
