Dad told me about how his just retired friend's 25 year old insisted on liquidating F.D's worth a sizeable amt ( kept for EMERGENCY ) today as the son KNEW he could EARN SO MUCH MORE from markets in JUST a month ! 🤦

A thread on the same for NEWBIES.
2/8
2020 was exceptional !!
A brutal crash followed by an unimaginable run due to liquidity.

NO. IT DOESN'T MAKE YOU TALENTED IF YOU HAVE MADE 50%+ RETURNS THIS YEAR.

Even a GROUNDED AIRLINE scrip is flying. That doesn't make you an expert.
IT JUST MAKES YOU LUCKY! 🤷
3/8
An experienced person with a modest risk appetite would be happy with 12-15% CAGR over a long term.

Most get caught at higher ends. ( Few accept it )
Only a HANDFUL enter at bottom ( Mostly Newbies).

You never know WHEN YOU too might get caught at the higher end!
4/8
Don't get CARRIED AWAY by these Screenshots & Self proclaimed EXPERTS on Twitter who run paid subscription giving 5 FUNDAMENTALLY strong stock names EVERYDAY !

Yes they ARE making lot of money.
But NOT from markets .
They are MINTING money off you ! 🤦
5/8
Leaving your JOB to pursue TRADING is mostly stupidity .

Stopping a A REGULAR source of income for a POSSIBLE windfall is TEXTBOOK DISASTER IN MAKING.

One can become Financially Independent by focusing on work, skillsets & investing sensibly . Weekend reading suffices.
6/8
If you have made spectacular returns in Average/Penny stocks or Trading use that returns sensibly .

* Pay off existing loans .
Become DEBT FREE

* Ensure you have an Emergency fund worth a year's expenses
👇

* Open a PPF account
7/8

* First ensure you have a Life Insurance , a Term Insurance , a good Medical Insurance - Not just from your Employer.
👇


* Read and improve Skillsets & start building a corpus - OF
YOUR OWN SAVINGS for investing.

STOP USING YOUR PARENTS' SAVINGS!
8/8
The markets may even see a Time Based correction in 2021.
NO ONE KNOWS what the future holds .

As Munger states,
All we need to do is try to be consistently not stupid , instead of trying to be very intelligent .

MY TAKEAWAYS FROM ATOMIC HABITS by @JamesClear

A spectacular book that focuses on building HABITS following SYSTEMS to achieve RESULTS - Instead of the traditional GOAL BASED approach.

It's a highly engaging read with plenty of practical examples .

#BookRecommendation
2/20
Your OUTCOMES are a lagging measure of your HABITS . Although difficult to appreciate on a daily basis , they MATTER IMMENSELY.
Change your habit ,to change the outcome.

It doesn't matter WHERE you are currently,
CHANGE YOUR HABIT TO CHANGE THE TRAJECTORY OF YOUR LIFE!👇
3/20
You do not RISE to the level of your GOALS .You FALL to the level of your SYSTEMS .

Why so ?

Both WINNERS & LOSERS have a Goal . What then sets them apart ?

It's having a SYSTEM in place.
Systems are forever & they result in continuous SELF IMPROVEMENT .

Firstly what is #IKIGAI ?

The Japanese call it - A REASON TO JUMP OUT OF BED EACH MORNING.

It's a convergence of 4 things .
*What you love
*What you are good at
*What you can get paid for
*What the world needs .

We need to find our Ikigai in life!

Let's begin with DAILY HEALTH HABITS.

A SOUND MIND IN A SOUND BODY .

Both our MIND & BODY must be exercised well to avoid deterioration in latter years of life .

Have a mental workout routinely by stepping out of your COMFORT ZONE.
Expose yourself to CHANGE.

My takeaways from the best seller
#ThePsychologyOfMoney by @morganhousel

It beautifully encapsulates , via chapters , the most under rated factor in investing - The Psychological aspect of it .

Do read the book :)

CHAPTER 1

What we experience early on (in our adult life) is more compelling than what we learn second hand, which is why each person thinks about #Risk & #Reward DIFFERENTLY.

In theory we SHOULD make our investments based on OUR goals & options available.
3/31

However we tend to include our unique experiences of how the world works (albeit with incomplete information) which might seem crazy to others .

* Spreadsheets cannot replicate human emotions which is why no amount of studying can make one truly UNDERSTAND the underlying.

* HOW TO BECOME RICH THIS DIWALI 🤑 *

With Diwali around the corner along with our economy rebounding , only fair that we be bombarded with "PATAKA STOCKS" by EXPERTS from Indore to the enthusiastic newbie who made 30% returns on his portfolio ( of ₹10,000) in 1 week 🙄
2/14
So here are my 2 cents gently reminding how much of WEALTH has ACTUALLY been created for the enthusiastic retailers by PATAKA / PENNY / MULTI BAGGER stocks recommended in the past few years .

DISCLAIMER : Being a learner, I am mostly wrong 😇🙏
To each his own .

A small snapshot of a few Penny stocks ( using this word a little liberally here ) that were recommended LEFT , RIGHT AND CENTRE on Social Media & how they are doing currently :))

P.S - These are still recommended to newbies with the recount of their glorious past ! 🤦
