O mare parte a vie\u021bii sale Ronald Read a muncit la o benzin\u0103rie \u0219i ca om de serviciu. Potrivit Blic<\/a>, a tr\u0103it simplu, a condus o ma\u0219in\u0103 veche \u0219i nu a l\u0103sat niciodat\u0103 impresia unui om bogat. La moartea sa, s-a aflat c\u0103 str\u00e2nsese aproape opt milioane de dolari.<\/p>\n

Povestea americanului din Vermont a devenit cunoscut\u0103 dup\u0103 moartea sa, \u00een 2014. Ronald Read avea 92 de ani, iar cei care \u00eel cuno\u0219teau au descoperit c\u0103 b\u0103rbatul care dusese o via\u021b\u0103 extrem de modest\u0103 acumulase \u00een secret o avere impresionant\u0103.<\/p>\n

Nu c\u00e2\u0219tigase la loterie, nu primise o mo\u0219tenire uria\u0219\u0103 \u0219i nici nu avusese un salariu care s\u0103 explice o asemenea avere. Banii s-au str\u00e2ns \u00een timp, prin economisire \u0219i investi\u021bii f\u0103cute cu r\u0103bdare.<\/p>\n

A lucrat 25 de ani la o benzin\u0103rie<\/h2>\n

Ronald Read a crescut \u00eentr-o familie modest\u0103 \u0219i a fost primul membru al familiei sale care a absolvit liceul. \u00cen timpul celui de-Al Doilea R\u0103zboi Mondial, a servit \u00een armata american\u0103, ajung\u00e2nd \u00een Africa de Nord, Italia \u0219i Pacific. Dup\u0103 r\u0103zboi, s-a \u00eentors \u00een Vermont \u0219i a \u00eenceput s\u0103 lucreze la benzin\u0103ria Haviland, de\u021binut\u0103 de fratele s\u0103u. A r\u0103mas acolo aproximativ 25 de ani.<\/p>\n

Dup\u0103 pensionare, Read s-a angajat ca om de serviciu la un magazin universal \u0219i a continuat s\u0103 lucreze p\u00e2n\u0103 \u00een 1997.<\/p>\n

Cum s-a \u00eembog\u0103\u021bit<\/h2>\n

Secretul averii lui Ronald Read st\u0103 \u00een investi\u021biile f\u0103cute de-a lungul deceniilor.
B\u0103rbatul economisea bani \u0219i cump\u0103ra ac\u021biuni ale unor companii americane cunoscute, \u00een special ale celor care pl\u0103teau dividende \u00een mod regulat. Nu urm\u0103rea c\u00e2\u0219tiguri rapide \u0219i nu \u00eencerca s\u0103 fac\u0103 tranzac\u021bii \u00een fiecare zi.<\/p>\n

Read prefera s\u0103 cumpere \u0219i s\u0103 p\u0103streze ac\u021biunile pentru perioade foarte lungi. Unele dintre investi\u021biile sale au r\u0103mas \u00een portofoliu ani sau chiar decenii.<\/p>\n

La momentul mor\u021bii, portofoliul s\u0103u cuprindea ac\u021biuni ale aproximativ 95 de companii, printre care Procter & Gamble, JPMorgan Chase, General Electric, Johnson & Johnson, Dow Chemical \u0219i CVS Health.<\/p>\n

A avut ac\u021biuni \u0219i la Lehman Brothers, companie care a intrat \u00een faliment \u00een timpul crizei financiare. Diversificarea investi\u021biilor a f\u0103cut \u00eens\u0103 ca astfel de pierderi s\u0103 nu-i distrug\u0103 portofoliul. Un rol important l-a avut \u0219i reinvestirea dividendelor. \u00cen loc s\u0103 cheltuiasc\u0103 banii ob\u021binu\u021bi din investi\u021bii, Read \u00eei folosea pentru a cump\u0103ra \u00een continuare ac\u021biuni.<\/p>\n

\u00cen decursul mai multor decenii, economiile \u0219i randamentele investi\u021biilor s-au acumulat, iar efectul dob\u00e2nzii compuse a contribuit la cre\u0219terea averii sale.<\/p>\n

Tr\u0103ia modest, de\u0219i avea milioane<\/h2>\n

Cea mai surprinz\u0103toare parte a pove\u0219tii este \u00eens\u0103 felul \u00een care Ronald Read a ales s\u0103 tr\u0103iasc\u0103. B\u0103rbatul nu avea un stil de via\u021b\u0103 extravagant \u0219i nu \u00eencerca s\u0103 le demonstreze celor din jur c\u0103 este bogat. De fapt, familia \u0219i prietenii apropia\u021bi nu \u0219tiau c\u00e2t de mare era averea sa. De exemplu, Read conducea o ma\u0219in\u0103 second-hand Toyota Yaris din 2007, evaluat\u0103 la aproximativ 5.000 de dolari..<\/p>\n

Biblioteca \u0219i spitalul au primit milioane de dolari<\/h2>\n

Surpriza a fost \u0219i mai mare dup\u0103 deschiderea testamentului. Ronald Read a decis ca o mare parte din averea sa s\u0103 ajung\u0103 la institu\u021bii din comunitate. Spitalul Memorial Brattleboro a primit 4,8 milioane de dolari, \u00een timp ce Biblioteca Memorial\u0103 Brooks a primit 1,2 milioane de dolari.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
