I think somehow, people relate equities to big money, bull run, excitement, rush... but when it is not what they expect, they think you must be doing something wrong.
This happened to my friends too. So nowadays, if anyone dont agree on value investing, I dont talk about shares with them.
Personally, value investing changes me abit. I now saves more money. As i want to be able to invest during a crisis/correction. And i think i am also getting more "cheapo". Everything i buy, I will look for undervalue items. But I do splurge once awhile.
