I, for example, am the world`s worst trader. The best traders are
maestros of timing. Knowing when to get in and get out, they enter and
exit markets fearlessly. Over decades I have learned the best way for me to make money is to find something cheap that I like , take a position,
and hold it for the long term. i am a lousy trader, and I avoid
"short-term" investments.
