Confused about investment experts?
In the stock market, anyone who dares to tell you that he is an expert. This man must be a liar. For example, Buffett, who has been regarded as a stock god, dare not call himself an expert. My understanding is that the most important abilities in this market are how to survive for a long time, how to deal with crises and survive, rather than bragging about how much money you have won. There are many well-known investment gurus in this market, and they have all experienced bankruptcy and major investment failures. I think the fascinating thing about the stock market is that there is no end to learning. And "change" becomes constant.
How to become a good investor?
The first step is to become yourself. We are lucky - living in such an age of advanced information, where all kinds of knowledge can be obtained as long as you are willing. Compared with the past, the threshold for becoming a good investor has been lowered a lot, but you must learn to filter out false information. When we receive all kinds of knowledge and news. We all have to internalize it as our own, so that you can understand it and use it. This way it becomes your ability as well as your wisdom.
Who are you?
I think you will definitely not be Buffett or Wood, let alone Peter Lynch and Soros. Because you have different backgrounds, experiences, qualifications, and financial resources, good investment strategies and methods must be consistent with your own. Therefore, you must make your own investment decisions and be responsible for your own investments.
About professional investors
We generally call people who specialize in investing as professional investors. Recently, I think maybe we can call them "professional investors" more accurately. This is definitely not the noble industry that most people imagine. The stereotype that most people give to such a profession is that it is easy to make money. However, that is because our hard work has not been seen by everyone, and most people are only willing to share successful experiences. And only after you succeed can you have the courage to come out and share your joy. Therefore, it is misunderstood by the public that becoming a professional investor must make money, and he must make a lot of money to be qualified to be called one. In Taiwan, most young people aim to earn an annual salary of one million yuan, and the average annual salary of more people may fall between 500,000 and 600,000. However, as long as you can develop an investment ability, no one needs to give you a salary, and this ability can be realized, support yourself, and pay yourself a salary, we can all be called professional investors. And this number is up to you!!!
Let me share a short story: A fisherman met a rich man. The rich man thought that the fisherman had a hard time fishing, so he wanted to tell the fisherman how to make more money through fishing. The fisherman said: What happens after this? The rich man said: Wait. If you have money, you can see the mountains, the sea, the world, and live a leisurely life. The fisherman said: I am doing it now!
