A Suggested Investment Framework

Investing is committing your money to a business operation now, with the expectation to take out more money later. It has three core principles. The first and the most important is to protect the investment capital (the principal). Secondly, no investment is possible without thorough research which has many dimensions and takes time. Lastly, you have to be content with an adequate return. There should be a way of determining how much is adequate. This succinct framework of investing was propounded by Benjamin Graham in his book: The Intelligent Investor.
