Few years ago, a study conducted in US by Fidelity Investments discovered that being “dead” could actually be a good investing strategy. This meant that the highest returns were earned by investors who had just ignored their investments for years and decades. It was also found that some of them had actually died at some point.
I can vouch for this actually being true in some cases. My aunt’s mother had invested some of her savings in shares of Accenture years ago. And apparently forgotten all about it. Three years after her death, my aunt and her brother found out that she had such shares and now they were worth lakhs of rupees! So I suppose the best way to invest is start putting little amounts of money in stocks and forget all about it for a few years at least.
