ICYMI: Billionaire Michael Lee-Chin shares his secrets on wealth creation and where he’s investing next — via financialpost PersonalFinance HighNetWorth Investor

In the car, the managers clung to their briefcases, looking glum. It had been a remarkable run. They had ridden the wave of the booming wealth management industry so well that they had increased the value of assets under management to nearly $10 billion by 1998 from $12 million at the start of the decade. But, in a matter of weeks, everything had changed.

Lee-Chin is Canada’s only Black billionaire, and just one of 15 Black billionaires worldwide. He’s associated with 4 “unicorns,” privately held startups that have a valuation of over $1 billion: AIC Ltd., Columbus Communications, InterEnergy Holdings Ltd., and ITM Isotope Technologies Munich SE. He’s also associated with three publicly traded companies worth $1 billion or more, including NCB Financial Group Ltd., Telix Pharmaceuticals, and Guardian Holdings Ltd.

“Most people make decisions and act on their decisions based on: ‘Ready, aim, aim, aim, aim, aim…,” Lee-Chin said in an interview. “What I do, is I ready, aim, and if I’m in the vicinity, I fire.” Lee-Chin got his degree, and then applied to 100 jobs in engineering, receiving 100 rejections. “That was a low point in my life,” he said, “because when you’re not working, and you’re trying to get a job, and you get rejected, it kills your self-esteem.”Article contentDevelop and stick to a sound, intellectual framework that is absolute, not relativeHe switched careers and became a mutual fund salesman.

Lee-Chin joined the game. In 1983, he took out an investor loan of $500,000 to buy into the company whose funds he was selling: Mackenzie Investments. He advises investors to take a businesslike stance and immerse themselves in a business, buying into it not simply because the stock is going up or down, but because they have identified it as a great business. “You should ask yourself the question, ‘Do I really want to own a piece of that business, and why?'”Article content
