Beautiful Advice for Challenging Times


This is something I read and liked a lot.

It echoes thoughts that had been swirling in my mind and to whom I had not given form.

Ben Stein (who is an investor) does so beautifully.

He writes:

"After all, my wife has not lost value. My dogs have not lost value. My son has gained greater value by getting engaged to a fabulous young woman. My friends have not lost value (but, sadly, there are fewer and fewer of them). The sunshine outside my house in Rancho Mirage, Calif., has not lost value, and every year I have left has greater value because of scarcity.

In my remaining years as an investor, I will just do the best I can - and then go eat sushi. I recommend you do the same."
