this video i want to share with you one of the better performing shares that i've had in the last
number of years and it has produced or returned a really solid return for me that is alphabet
inc alphabet inc is the parent or holding company or stock market name for google now
i invested in google for many reasons but one of the most important reasons for me
in investing in any share is that i actually understand what the company involved does
and with google i know what to do because i use google every day not only that but i have
a google drive customer so all of my files for my legal practice are on google drive
and i also generate clients from youtube i also generate clients from google search i
also generate income some income from adsense and then i advertise on google as well because
they advertise on youtube so i know what google does we all know what google does
but i have a particular affinity to google because i use it use google's products every day of the
week in my business and have done for years so that is one of the reasons why i would buy a share
in a company about a number of shares in alphabet which is the parent or holding company of google
now if you have a look at the screen there you'll see that i bought firstly in february of 18 five
shares at a thousand dollars a piece i then in the 11th of october 2019 bought one share at 124
and then i bought further four shares in
july 2020 four shares at fifteen hundred dollars and the total cost is here total cost as you can
see in euros is about six and four is about ten grand or thereabouts but you'll see today is
the 21st of november sunday the 21st of november this is 19th of november as you can see here 2021.
you'll see that the shares that i purchased are now selling for 2977 us dollars my average
price the purchase price was 1271. my shares are now worth 26 375 and i have a unrealized profit
of 15 607 euros 26 cents that's a return of 144.93 percent over the last three years or thereabouts
as you can see from the screen the first tranche of funds or first transfer of shares
rather i bought was in february of 18 and then 19 and 2021 so or 2020 so if you consider that
february 2018 and this is november 2021 it's about three years a little over three years
and i have a return of 145 percent 15 grand 15 600 my original investment of approximately
six and five is uh about 10 grand or thereabouts is now worth um 26 000. so that is a good return
in anybody's book i believe and it is one of the better performing shares but it fulfill
the number of criteria that i look for when i am purchasing a share one is that
it's a solid company that is involved in something selling products or services that i understand
and secondly that the financials and the price performance the share price performance
up to that had been showing steady increase um and obviously steady growth in terms of
income and earnings and turnover and so on so i hope you find this video useful and you can see
what is possible with that stuff investing in shares obviously you need a bit of luck but you do
need to do a little bit of research have a little bit of an interest or knowledge in the whole area
and you will be able to generate good long-term medium to long-term returns excellent returns in
fact but this one alphabet is one of my favorites because well for obvious reasons hope you find
this video useful if you do would appreciate if you give it a thumbs up down below thanks a lot
you
