Like I've always said, patience with BRKB is the answer to all of life's problems
Bunch of people need to edit their data on the "millionaires" thread on this forum. I'll start an ex-millionaires thread for those of us shoving cash into nuclear, crypto, and mining stocks.
I've never visited the "millionaires" thread so I'm just replying to your comment on this thread.
Your words reek of anger and regret, that means emotion drives your decisions. How many times over the years has everyone been advised to remove emotion from their trading? How many times have you read of folks raising cash and dismissed the concerns they were seeing? How many times have you read that advice dismissed and even outright mocked on here?
I'm not picking on you, but if you're saying just buy BRKB is the way to go, then just put your money into an index fund and don't worry about it. However, actively managing your money does produce far greater returns as long as you remove emotion and remain disciplined. That is a fact!
FTR, I can't recall any poster in here bragging about being millionaires in here. Remove emotion, stay disciplined and you will successfully compound your accounts and create wealth.
My post was 100% self-deprecating and facetious. I guess that didn't come through. I've posted numerous times about how disappointing BRKB has been over the last few months so I was joking now that it finally had a small positive run.
As far as the millionaires thread, that was simply sarcasm that some people that were millionaires last month might no longer be so with the recent plummet of many speculative stocks.
I'm not angry at all. Stocks go up, stocks go down. Life goes on.
