It's time for another trip through the Archives! 🙂

"Stocks for the Long Run" was the third or fourth book on investing I read. I was a total newbie when I read this book. The lessons didn't resonate with me right away. I had to see markets in action for a couple of months and then I would have moments like, "Oh, that's what he meant!. 😄 Prof. Siegel braced me for volatility and corrections, like what we saw in 2022. 📉 He also challenged my perception of the mechanics of investing. I always had this idea that I would be drilling on my keyboard and spinning my mouse in 100 km arcs trying to bend the second by second fluctuations in index and price movements to my favor. The market of stocks we call "the stock market" is ~waay~ bigger than any one single person. 👍 You're here for the ride and Prof. Siegel is here to tell you what the ride is all about. 🎢
