When market crashes more than 40% or 50%, any Tom Dick or Harry throws a dart at a dart board printed with 2nd liners to blue chips will, shall make money when Market restores to original index before crashes. Don't believe? Brave enough to try it?
The problem is that before that time all my investable money are in the market already. i will be chickened out long before 40% or 50% if it ever happens again. Even if i want to try it, i can't. My psyche doesn't allow me to do it. Hope you can. In fact i hold back more than 35% to 40 % of my capital at march 2009. The capital was/is in quite safe "assets allotcation". If only i have the psyche to put everything into the 2009 market.
Now if i tell you i have had the psyche and i have had done it 25 or 26 years ago, do you believe me? That was when i first invested at the age of 40.
Any psychologist among us like to explain what happen to my psyche? Has she left me or still with me but changes into a different "she" as i aged, she aged too? Can a person's psyche changes?
i though a leopard can never changes her spots. Or the Chinese:- "Mountain can be changed, your characters hard to move". Pardon me for my poor literal translation of the idiom.
You are what you are even you want to think otherwise. No?
WB:-
1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.
Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.
NB:-
My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.
