Integrity can be sold but not bought. Always adopt the highest ethics in your investing

You can certainly profit from unscrupulous investing practices, but once you have sold your integrity it is gone forever.

On the other hand, honesty costs nothing but pays handsomely.

The golden rule of 'do unto others as you would have done to you' applies just as equally in investing as it does with other aspects of your life.

Compromising your integrity is not worth all the money in the world because you might be able to fool other people, but you'll never fool yourself.

Be a shining example to others rather than a case study in a legal textbook!
