Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favorite tales on this weekly publication.
Blockbuster? Pets.com? A Tokyo penthouse in about January 1991? Historical past is affected by investments that took an almighty nosedive. However what’s your greatest monetary mistake?
For our end-of-year version, FT Cash is asking our most esteemed columnists, contributors and consultants to share their worst funding tales, and we’d like (courageous) readers to hitch in too.
Was your blunder brought on by ignorance or naivete? Or do you continue to secretly assume it was a superb purchase and also you had been simply unfortunate? Maybe it offered a priceless lesson: one which in the end led to larger and higher successes?
In case you have a horror story to share, we’d love to listen to from you. You’ll be able to e-mail us — anonymously if you happen to like — at money@ft.com
