Today I turn 55. I’m the fittest, sharpest, and happiest I’ve ever been. If I’m an outlier, it’s not because I’m built different or discovered a secret formula. The truth is far less glamorous: It’s a million tiny choices, compounded over decades. Here are 55 of them: 1.…
A huge issue I see among investors is that they implicitly apply a labor theory of value to their research process--they commit a tremendous amount of time towards achieving a deep understanding of a business/industry and they think that the market will reward that level of…

The biggest mistake I see from non professional investors is the belief that the business and the stock are the same thing. Perhaps over 10-15 years this is true in many cases. Unfortunately, holding periods, patience and portfolio discipline don’t match this timeline.
Be contrarian. Be right. Don’t chase the pack.
If everything about our society seems phony to you, it's because it is. The politicians lie, the news media lie, the movies lie, the internet lies, the adverts lie, the shows between the adverts lie. That's what you get when you live under an empire that's held together by lies.
