Most people see the world purely through a consumer lens. They get annoyed when gas prices go up. They complain when restaurants raise prices. They get frustrated when their favorite products are constantly sold out. That’s normal… they’re feeling the direct hit to their wallet and daily life. But many investors eventually make a quiet shift. They start seeing the world through an owner’s eyes. I used to hate going to Costco. Packed parking lot, long lines, crowded aisles… shopping there was dreadful. Then one day it clicked. As a $COST shareholder, every full shopping cart rolling out those doors was money in my pocket. Suddenly, a busy Costco made me smile. That small mindset change changed everything for me. Gas prices rising? Maybe time to look at $XOM or $SHEL. Restaurants getting more expensive? Companies like $DRI might be benefiting. Shelves at $TGT constantly selling out? That’s not a problem… that’s demand and rising same store sales. The faster you can flip from consumer to owner mindset, the more opportunities you start to spot that everyone else is missing. Has anyone else noticed their perspective changing since they started investing? What did that shift look like for you? =^.^=

I’ve always had the mindshift of abundance even before I started investing in stocks .. seeing a company busy never upset me. Whenever a company gave me value for my spend I’ve been greatful to that company & that includes Costco I’ve been a Costco member since about 2010 probably but finally became a small share owner in 2023 LOVE to see great companies give great value .. win-win 🙌🏼

You can be an owner, an employee, or a customer. Pick your poison! I would be more inclined to shop at Costco if they had cats pushing shopping carts lol

There’s quite a lot of food in your cart for a single cat. However one can’t help but notice you’re also about 8 feet tall judging by the pic, so you clearly need it! 😂🤪
