1/We have known for more than 60 years about many of the human biases that plague us. They are not confined to our investment decisions, but it is in this realm that they cost us the most money.

Study after study after study have confirmed them.
2/They are widely written about and discussed.

Yet, we continue to exhibit them, because they are part of the programing we are born with and we can not educate against them.
3/The only way to conquer them is to install some interventionist system.

I use quantitative algorithms, but there are many other ways.

If you want to succeed with your long-term investments, find one.
