Stockpiling

My specialization is time management, not money management. But I do believe I can give you some good advice on the best stock to invest in. It’s the stockpile.

Stockpiling items you use regularly is the strategy of good managers. They know that running out of needed items costs time and money. Good managers for example run off the top half of their gas tank, while poor managers run off the bottom half, buying a few dollars at a time and always hoping the fumes will get them close enough to coast to the gas station.

The Bible says a wise man can foresee bad things coming and take appropriate preventive measures. That basic principle could be extended to stockpiling things you are prone to run out of such as stamps, milk, bread, batteries, nails, Band-Aids, vacuum cleaner bags, tape, and aspirin.

Stockpiling these items prevents frantic last minute trips to the store. That’s why stockpiling is a good investment for those who want to redeem the time.
