Investing “Throughout all my years of investing, I’ve found that the big money was never made in the buying or selling, the big money was made in the waiting.” -Jessie Livermore
Wisdom “Double down on our best relationship. It’s the investment with the highest return.” – James Clear
Investing “Sometimes it is best to simply say “I don’t know exactly what is going to happen, but I think X strategy has a high probability of working. I’m going to put skin-in-the-game and allocate capital according to X strategy. If I see data points Y and Z change, then I will re-evaluate my perspective.” – Pomp

Inspiration ““The advice shouldn’t be to act your age. It should be to act your spirit. Your age may try to prohibit you from dancing like that, or starting over, or trying something new. But your spirit would never do such a thing. If something feels aligned, your spirit wants you to go for it, whether you’re 15 or 85. Acting your age makes you fit in more, while acting your spirit will indeed cause you to stand out—in a bad way to people who act their age, but in an inspiring way to those who act their spirit. Try acting your spirit from time to time, and you can see for yourself which path makes you feel more alive.” – Light Watkins
Wisdom “If you believe business is built on relationships, make building them your business.” -Scott Stratten
Inspiration “For everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom.” – Albert Einstein
Investing “Which is worse, buying at the top or selling at the bottom? For me the answer is easy: the latter. If you buy at what turns out to have been a market top, you’ll suffer a downward fluctuation. But that isn’t cause for concern if the long-term thesis remains intact. And anyway, the enxt top is usually higher than the last top, meaning you’re likely to be ahead eventually. But if you sell at a market bottom, you render the downward fluctuation permanent, and, even more importantly, you get off the escalator of a rising economy and rising markets that has made so many long-term investors rich. This is why I describe selling at the bottom as the cardinal sin in investing.” – Howard Marks
Inspiration “A person who never makes a mistake is a person who never tried anything new.” – Einstein
Wisdom “There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.” – Oscar Wilde
Inspiration “If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulder of giants.” – Sir Isaac Newton
Wisdom “Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts.” – Albert Einstein
