I do NOT like to jump into anything too quickly before I kind of have some ideas about it.... and by the time I was getting more informed the price was skyrocketting. Accordingly, I began my investment at about $1200.
Pro tip: learn quicker. That way you don't stagnate and buy in at the top; losing a bundle dollar costing all the way down....
why don't you describe a few paragraphs of some learning experience(s) that you had that had "enlightened" you about the ways of the world
Um, ok then, I guess.
I have always been really into the Cosmos. I used to be just chillin in the back of my Montessori Pre-K school content for hours reading books about space. I got into the practicalities of capitalism during my teenage years, starting my first successful business at 18 and operated that for nearly five years throughout college. Man what a time that was. Then I went to Oxbridge for a bit, studying Maths and Philosophy. Ho and hummed through my mid 20s, including > a year at a hedge fund as a trader. Was Valedictorian of my Grad program at a top 2 engineering institution after that.
Always business minded, and liked to build shit. But I've never lost that love of the Cosmos. All that was Preamble to my main point. Here's one Learning Experience that makes me qualified to say what I said after reading dozens of your posts ITT....
I decided to take a grad course in Physics, though I'd never formally even taken any course like that during my years in undergrad. I was, and have always been fascinated with the deepest realities of existence. So I got to wondering about some things, and realized the coolest dude on campus to speak to was this guy who was a Nobel Prize winner. We had a similar background, with the Oxbridge thing. So I thought, I'll just email him and we'll chat.
And that's exactly what happened. For one Summer a few years back I got the chance to talk a couple of times, one-on-one, deep, with a Nobel Laureate. The kind of dude who drops anecdotes and kernels of understanding so deep, I'll spend a lifetime thinking about the questions they raise. Knowing that I'm likely not ever to stumble on the answers, because I'm not quite that bright.
You ever done that? Ok then. I stand by my statement. Learn quicker, it can be done.
Pro tip #2...rely on your intuition, after learning to well hone its snap judgements....
“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.”
-Einstein
Again - You are continuing to project a patronizing approach, which may be a character difficulty that you cannot easily shake......
I feel bad for you, but what can I do?
You don't seem to get hints or subtlety... and seem to want to amp up your supposed contribution to benefit me by dishing out additional unsolicited advice to make some kind of mysterious point. Some people can take hints, very well, and some cannot.
It does seem that you remain determined to get your way and attempt to jam your supposed higher learning upon me (or maybe it is for the benefit of the public?), while missing my earlier point about each of us coming to our situations from different perspectives and experiences.. .in which that was a hint that you may not know all of the circumstances of a persons goals, values and aspirations.
I do appreciate you sharing some of your background to the extent that some of that information may have been quasi-relevant to make your point about your qualification(s) in making your points. I also appreciate that you had read several of my earlier posts, which makes me feel somewhat comforted to find out that at least one person is reading some of my posts - nonetheless, you seem to continue to want to attempt to resort to a form of arm-chaired investment "advice" with incomplete information, while presuming and/or proclaiming that you have sufficient information about my situation.
Even though I get the sense we do NOT need to go on with exchanges of communications, for the sake of humor, I look forward to perusing your unsolicited pro tip #3.
since you may NOT be able to resist with such. Who knows? Your behavior may be like bitcoin prices, mostly difficult to predict the direction in the short-term...
