Phenomenal piece.

“The stock market is a distraction from the act of investing.” Great quote.

Nice article.

i think that by far the biggest aspect that is rationalized away by investors is quoted below by you

.You can teach everyone everything in the article and they can know it like they know their favourite tune, but humans need to understand what time and patience really mean in a world of clicks and likes.

What is your timeline in an investment? Do you write it down WHEN you buy it? Do you really commit?

For brevity’s sake, I decided to omit things like “time” and “patience”. While there is a compelling argument for both, and they are arguably the most important, I felt they are too obvious and would take up valuable real estate.

Thanks for taking the time to comment Victor, and for expressing the kind words too.

I guess with time and patience I toiled with the idea of whether or not they are underappreciated. I believe most people understand the value of time and patience, but then again they are neglected often too. So perhaps they ought to be included.
