    But then, indexing is ‘boring’ even though we would all probably end up with more money in the end if we just listened to Bogle.

    And just what is it that 'you can tell'

    That you post like a man who is yet to know the warmth of a good woman.

    Well that shows how good an analyst you are, but we already knew that.

    You post like a man completely beaten into submission by the market, and publicly so. Not just rag dolled once twice or thrice but consistently pummelled until you scurried away terrified to ever touch a stove again. Hot or cold.

    There are also implications in your post about what you have settled for in a 'good Woman' that I spare you from the humiliation of exploring.

    Personally mike2020 has been finding it inspirational. Mike2020 loved Daytr posting in red this morning to match his mood and mike2020 has already questioned his own relationship. Mike2020 hopes we delve further into what a good woman is re OCA and it's share price. Mike2020 has a theory, she is VERY understanding and patient and probably distracted by cats. Many cats.



    Mike 2020 probably went a little overboard here

    The distribution of investment returns will follow a roughly normal distribution, where some investors will randomly fall on the higher side of performance due to various factors, including different investment strategies, risk tolerance, timing, and sometimes, just pure luck.

    Statistically, there will always be a segment that does.

    Yeah I gave up trying to work out what his point was.

    I think he was saying sometimes a few people get lucky on occasion and outperform the index and on that basis smart guys like him should definitely not index.

    But people like me definitely should. Well, he is right on the last bit I suppose.

    It has the ring of AI generated investor clickbait. No mention of Berkshire though.
