That's the price I pay for long-term outperformance.

Quality of Earnings (QoE)

Before you applaud a company's profits, ask:
"Are these profits backed up by cash flow"?
If yes, they are high-quality earnings.

50% gain on $100: $50
5% gain on $10,000: $500
In the beginning, focus on saving & investing more, not on maximizing your return

Think you're bad at timing the market?
So are CEOs:

One protects your present.
The other creates your future.
You need both.

I love investing.
It's the best path to wealth & freedom that I know of.
