Christians Are Better Investors (Free Money Finance)

For those of you new to Free Money Finance, I post on The Bible and Money every Sunday. Here's why.

Ha! That headline is sure to get people stirred up! I'm betting I get at least one nasty comment from a person who reads it but not the post. ;-)

Seriously, though, I do not think that Christians per se are better investors than anyone else. Nor do I think they are worse than anyone else.

The headline is in reference to a Market Watch piece that highlights the great performance of two Christian investment newsletters. One of them is Sound Mind Investing, a company I used early in my investing days and that I think very highly of. In particular, their book The Sound Mind Investing Handbook - A Step-By-Step Guide To Managing Your Money From A Biblical Perspective 5th Ed is excellent! Even if you are not a Christian, the guidance in the book is sound and the thoughts on investing are top-notch IMO, especially for the beginning investor.

If you're interested in getting some Christian-based guidance on your investments, I can't think of a better option than Sound Mind Investing (no, this is not a paid endorsement -- I really do like them.) I've written about them quite a bit, so to get more information on SMI check out these posts:
