    So “history repeats itself” doesn’t apply in investing you mean ? Thanks for the video btw

    I started investing last year. I enter too soon in Tesla twice because of FOMO and I manage to earn some money thanks to Tesla strength and the confidence I have in the company that allows me to stay calm in the downturns. I think I learned something, we'll see.
    Thanks for your work, Tom! Have a great day!

    Overtime I learned to never invest without building a strong confidence into a company. Implying the fact I perhaps have to hold my position with a temporary 20-30% drawdown. So I spent most of my time to prepare myself to this possibility by setting up metrics for a specific sector and a specific company. Then be able to put all that work aside and be focus on the overall market conditions. When odds are in a good shape, the only job is to pickup one or few businesses from my hotlist with an asset allocation approach. Easy to say, hard to do and it's never glamorous to talk about. Everyone wants to see the show, few cares about hours of training before.

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Leza Lingafelter says:

    I totally agree with you! I have 15,000 shares of Palantir at an average of $$16.98 a share that I'm basically stuck in until it goes up. I really believe in the company, but wish I hadn't invested so much in it! Hopefully, it goes up someday!!!

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SpyHunter says:

    #1 TAXES: Research a Roth IRA to let your investments grow without taxes (you pay the tax on the way in and future growth is tax free).

    So it's the button zapping me.🤯

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jason says:

    90% only invest for long term horizon at least 1 year mostly 3 – 5 years. 10% try and time the market, keeps things exciting like going to vegas every day on your computer 🙂

    Exactly

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Oleg Prytula says:

    Time to buy Tesla shares

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nick Peitsch Investing says:

    Great video, but I disagree with your last point Tom. Warren Buffett tells us to buy wonderful businesses at a good price — regardless of what’s going on in the economy! Economic data should barely influence our investment decisions.

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MidWest Cannabis says:

    Nash it

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Aditya Ghosh says:

    Pay off credit cards regularly…

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David H says:

    Thanks Tom for blasting through those basics. FOMO is especially a pathway to ruin. Dollar cost average, stay calm, stay calm, and stay calm. Have a 6+ month cash reserve, invest in solid companies, and have some quality time with your spouse. Do the best job at whatever you're doing. You'll be fine.

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jorge Luis Gallardo says:

    This was very informative. Thanks 🙏

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Aku says:

    This is for people like me, who are mostly interested in building a dividend portfolio:

    DO NOT INVEST BASED ON DIVIDEND YIELD! There are so many assets out there that have absolutely enormous dividend yields, almost like it's too good to be true (that's because it probably is). Always look at the fundamentals, make sure you agree with the principles the asset represents, and then if everything aligns for you, go ahead and invest.

    I have fallen into a couple of yield traps before, and it does not feel very good.

    Top 3 ways to avoid losses:
    AVOID anything related to the ARK Invest folio.
    DON'T believe any metric based on Price/Sales
    DON'T believe Palantir is worth more than 10$ a share!!! 😉

    In Canada we have this tax free saving account. The money in that account can be invested in stocks and the gain is still free of taxes. 😀

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Vlad says:

    Hey Tom, could u please make a video about asset allocation? Would be great. Greetings and thanks for the video!

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars PhatChin says:

    #8 is sooooo legit. People don't understand that their financial habits form the foundation of their future success. People literally map-out their desired purchases even BEFORE the paychecks come in. This is bad.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chase Gordon says:

    Thank You Tom 🎱🐐
