I have never discussed my investing with anyone other than the people I deal with on a professional basis (ie financial advisor, mortgage broker) and my parents.
My view has been that it will change things, that I will be viewed as being luckier, better off, richer etc etc. Its not something I want to have happen.
My brothers and I all had the same opportunities, I believe that both my brothers are more intelligent than I and yet I'm the one holding a couple of properties.
Both my brothers are destined for lousy retirements due to the complete lack of saving, buying whatever whenever.
I'm now starting to think that perhaps I should be trying to educate them, afterall I'll need someone to go fishing with up north.
My concern is that if I tell them they may not act and view me differently or if they do act and it comes unstuck then I'm the reason for their woes.
What say you O forum ? My relationship with my brothers is in your hands.
