MS in Global Leadership Student Featured on CNNMoney.com

MS in Global Leadership Cohort 51 Student Brian Higgins was recently featured in a CNN Money article about personal investing.

Brian says, “I know the current market will probably go down in the short-term, but I’m focused on strategy for the long run, and this is a great opportunity for someone at my age to buy low and sell high in the future.

Since I have a stable job, I’m not too worried about the market volatility or the economy, but I can understand how people who have job trouble might hold back. Even if we have a double dip recession, I have over 25 years to hold stocks until they recover, and if the stock market history tells us anything, I suspect they will far surpass their current price levels.

I’m confident the economy will pick back up. But of course I’m not putting everything in the U.S. I am also investing overseas, with a focus on China, Brazil, and India.”

Nice work, Brian!  We’re sure your finance professors would be proud – especially with the international focus of your investing.
