Episode 3313:

Chris Reining illustrates the pitfalls of active investing through the story of a man who lost money by constantly tinkering with his $100,000 portfolio. Reining emphasizes that the keys to successful investing are patience and viewing stocks as ownership in companies rather than mere prices. By adopting a long-term, buy-and-hold strategy, investors can avoid common mistakes and build wealth more effectively.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://chrisreining.com/invest-100000/

Quotes to ponder:

"The stock is not the company and the company is not the stock."

"Only buy something that you’d be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years."

"All the research shows being an active investor is what makes you poor."
