The Great Myths Of Investing

TedTed
in Off-Topic
FYI: As the great Mark Twain (may have) said, “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.” That’s particularly true in the investment world because we know, to a mathematical certainty, that avoiding errors provides more bang for the buck than making correct calls and generating outperformance. Fixing what we “know for sure that just ain’t so” provides a remarkable opportunity for investment success.
Regards,
Ted

    I liked this article. Very sensible. I often believe there is too much overthinking on this discussion board.
