Aswath Damodaran Explains Why "Investing Is Easy, Life Is Hard"

[@MrShwinner]

Wow, you got Professor Damodaran. That's huge ❤

[@tylerdred]

This is one of the greatest explanations of how businesses should be valued.

When people ask me how to invest, "buy the index, add money each month and go live your life"

[@jonathanlaue3460]

Lazy way out.And end up with insufficient funds to retire? That’s what happens. I beat the market consistently and those who put in the work can.

[@robertmarlo6668]

When I tell people I bought solana at ico for 40 cents and sold at 200, they say that’s something index can never achieve. Take some risks in life , may be for a small amount

[@Aubatron]

@@jonathanlaue3460most people can’t beat the market. Institutional investors with millions of dollars for research can’t. Individuals can, but they need to have an unemotional approach and understand business accounting. It’s not hard once you know how to do it, but learning everything takes time and to learn invest properly without getting mislead by someone, and also just having the right temperament is a rare thing. Investing is easy, being a good investor is a rare thing. Most people really should focus on earning as much as they can and just putting their money into an S&P500 ETF.

You've learned your lines well. I'm sure you'll make your advisor and your fund manager very wealthy.

Great interview!

Very thought provoking 👌

My aunt passed away, and I inherited part of her portfolio and $2m in cash savings. I'm 28 years old, and everyone always tells me to invest. So, what stocks are excellent long-term investments? My sole big plan is to use my gains to buy a house in five years.

[@velayuthman]

Honestly just hiree vanguard as an advisor. If you are in the comment section of KZbin asking stock tips you might not have money for a house in five years

[@Curbalnk]

Same, I just use KZbin for research purposes, I run all my major investment through an investment adviser, the market is just too unstable to handle things on your own. I have consistently restructure and diversify my portfolio/expenses and I’ve made over $3million in gains in close to decade of having one

[@greekbarrios]

One of my goals is to employ the service of one this year. I've seen some off Facebook but wasn't able to get a response. Could you recommend who it is you work with?

[@Curbalnk]

*Jennifer Leigh Hickman* is who i work with and she is a hot topic even among financial elitist in Texas. Just browse, you’d find her, thank me later.

[@kansasmile]

I'm pleased with your advisor's prompt and knowledgeable assistance. Her professionalism instills confidence. Looking forward to further discussions.

Impeccable

Then why is the theory ALWAYS not in like with reality?

[@Great_PatBingsoo]

Love how none of what he said resonated in your thick skull 😂😂😂😂

[@sp123]

People fall into hype and make bad decisions. People with experience and confidence in their ability to invest don't make bad decisions due to FOMO

[@denny5977]

Well... Charlie Munger once said, "investing is not supposed to be easy. Anyone who finds it easy is stupid". Just thought maybe useful to remind ourselves not to take investing too lightly.

With ťrading, technicaI analysis skills alone are not enough; discipline and emotional maturity are also crucial for success. The saying "time in the market vs. timing the market" is a good mindset to have during market fluctuations. Thanks to Evelyn Infurna’s insights, daily ťrade signaIs, and my dedication to learning, I've been increasing my daily earnings. Keep it up!

[@jeffbox1torres]

This is interesting. I heard a lot about the same person not long ago, please how can I contact her?

Use her name to quickly conduct an internet search.

Trusting Evelyn with handling my investment was one of the best things I did for myself. You stand to monitor your investment and request payouts at any time.

[@ZooDinghy]

If investing was just about valuation, nobody would invest in startups. Investing is just as much about seeing potential. If you see that AMD is bringing that new Ryzen CPU that outperforms its rivals, hell yes that sounds like a good investment. If there are geopolitical tensions, a defense stock like Rheinmetall is not a baf idea, etc. He is just another guy selling his philosophy.

[@frankle246]

The concept ( good biz, at fair P, good ceo and hold long term) is easy, but practice, application it is hard.

[@donaldlyons17]

@@frankle246none of that is easy otherwise why are there index funds?

[@williammason352]

Investing is very simple. 2/3rds of the market isn't worth investing in, 1/3rd is. Investing is simple math, nothing more or less. & I don't care what others are paying for a stock, I want it & get it where it's in my favor.

Bien hecho!
