Organic Finance
This is notes from the last section of "Organic Living".
the phrase "organic finance" is defined as: investing in your
beliefs and helping the environment through investments. Here
are the strategies recommended:
1. trade with a "green" bank
2. Buy fairly traded goods.
3. Invest in ethical/eco areas
4. Tailor investments to beliefs.
Some other options that appeal to me are:
1. Look at local needs and community needs.
Often these can be turned into win-win investments.
2. Make a list of why money is needed and ask
if it is more efficient to satisfy these needs
by other ways.
3. Understand the finance markets and ways they
are manipulated. Then invest and be prepared
to monitor. Consider avoiding large funds and the
army of middle men that siphon money.
