Success... on your own terms.

We are brainwashed by vested interests that we need x dollars, xyz material to be "succesful" and "happy".

Ever stop and question this?

 

Who are they to define this? Are they really better than you?

 

Why do they say this? What's their agenda?

 

We need to stop letting others define what we need to be content.

 

We need to delete all we have been told about what constitutes "success".

 

The fact is: We are all different and as such no one can say what WE need. No one can generalize.

 

Once we decide to define success in our own terms, we significantly increase the odds of success. In addition, we significantly reduce the time it takes to succeed.

 

We should never feel inadequate because we have not achieved success as defined by others.

Safe Investing.

While, safe investing definitely has less POTENTIAL, the issue is the PERCENTAGE of the potential you ACTUALLY obtain.

I mean, potential is very overrated. The higher the risk the harder to capture the potential. And, the actual capture rate drops.

 

The lottery has more potential than a bond fund but I'd rather put my money on the bond fund, thanks!

Investing - Milking Inputs

I prefer to invest in things... strategies that milk my "inputs", that is where my research, time, experience, etc. has the most impact.

 

And, where, in the worst case, my networth is not destroyed, even if I make mistakes.

 

The ride must be pleasant, as well.

 

Please give me your comments on investing!

Investing Should Be Pleasant!

It amazes me that people take so much risk and derive, such pain, pain that is 100% inevitable.

 

And, for what? So that MAYBE, just MAYBE, if they're LUCKY, at 70 they will be able to afford an additional gold watch.

One watch will do, quite nicely.

 

It's not worth it if it takes a long time and the path is full of misery!
