Before I share, I want you to know regardless of your financial sophistication level, keep these principles in mind:
-
Your Pilot Career Is Your Biggest Asset: Make investment decisions that complement your unique career risks and rewards, not those that duplicate them.
-
Respect Your Schedule: Your irregular pilot schedule may mean you can't monitor the market closely. Design an investment approach that accommodates your lifestyle.
-
Psychological Discipline: Aviation training emphasizes disciplined decision-making. Apply the same approach to investments by developing and following clear procedures.
-
Professional Guidance: Consider working with a financial advisor who specializes in airline pilot finances to tailor these strategies to your specific situation.
-
Focus on Risk Management: In volatile markets, high-quality businesses with strong competitive advantages, experienced management teams, and solid balance sheets typically outperform over the long term.
