Today I just gone through an article which said the importance of investing in a business. More importantly it says about not consuming the money meant for investment. (Well. This is for business starters. Online investment is a different one, yet some of this article portions are relevant to it too.) Here is the article: http://planninga-from-nanninga.blogspot.in/2007/02/dont-eat-your-seed-corn.html (As far as I scanned it, there seemed to be No referral links inside. Not sure though.)

Very true my friend, that's why initial capital is often referred to as seed money. As a basic rule, profit is for spending while the seed or capital is kept intact and should be increased from the profit excess, it's so hard to move or venture out if your capital is too small or depleted. When I was young, I remember my father telling me to "save and not to spend too much because money makes money" , I did not understand what he meant then but now i do.

Nice thoughts in there. I have really seen and heard a lot of companies who did not succeed or crumbled down because they haven't invested in the fundamental things and didn't cared about the future. They never strategized and planned how to utilize their money, hence, when they needed the money the most, they don't have anything to show. That's why I think that every company should look to have a good financial management system and great people working on it. I do agree with the point in the blog, however, the problem lies in the discipline of not using your investment or even building the investment necessary to gain profits. That is the hardest part when it comes to money. Everyone wants to spend making saving for investment and not using it up very difficult in a consumerism driven economy.
