Back from the shores of beautiful Turks and Caicos! Besides the images of the gorgeous bungalows and serene beaches, one thing is still stuck in my head. While wadding in the pool, the gals started talking about the success of one trader. But instead of his trading career, it was his side projects that were the center of the conversation. Apparently, his side businesses have been consistently profitable during these turbulent times, making Z comment that one needs to “diversify the income stream”. If investing 101 teaches us to avoid putting all the eggs in one basket, then does it not follow that we should also avoid depending on one chicken to supply all our eggs?
