    Buying shares in a company I work at when it started up. I’ve had a 500% return in dividends over 7 years so far.

      Putting all the money and labor into one horse is generally not a good financial advice. Glad it worked out for you.

        I didn’t put all my money in. I bought a 1.5% share. It was funded from part of my redundancy settlement from the previous company I worked for. Was it a gamble? Yes. Was it high risk to me? No. Besides the question wasn’t asking for advice.
