It was full of nerves and guts to STOP listening to those "smarter" ones from time to time coming to him to advise or telling him that he should to do this or do that according to classic market wisdoms which they have known or practiced. But; this picture tells a different story after more than 16 years across market cycles.
Believe who now?
