Your Finance Guy

@GrindeOptions most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in five.

If it takes you 5 years to get where you’re going, then it takes 5 years. Enjoy the process. Know that you will eventually arrive at your destination.

@GuyTalksFinance -3% is not a crash. it's a sale. the headline writers know fear sells better than perspective

Friend of mine is worried about the stock market crashing and is considering selling all of his stocks. Seems like a good time to remind everyone that despite all of the negative headlines: The S&P 500 is only down -3% year to date. This is the time to be buying not selling.

the market doesn't care about your feelings it doesn't care that you bought at the top it doesn't care that you need the money back the sooner you accept that, the better you'll trade.

@stijnnoorman or they studied something completely unrelated and that turned out to be the edge

The best entrepreneurs don't have a business degree. They just started a business.

@GuyTalksFinance 20 years feels long until you're 20 years older and either did it or didn't

You’re going to be rich in 20 years because you decided to buy index funds today.

@thejustinwelsh one job loss away from everything unraveling.

The most dangerous financial plan is a single salary, a big mortgage, and the hope that nothing goes wrong.

@drp825_ most people panic sell at 15% and then ask this question on twitter at 20%

If the market dropped 20% tomorrow… Would you buy more?

You don’t suck at trading You suck at waiting

@BrianFeroldi the market rewards patience more than intelligence. that's the part nobody wants to accept

The most valuable investing skill is to stay invested.

@EliteOptions2 the gap between starting and profitable is where most people quit and it's also where you learn everything that actually matters

Trading is the best career in the world. But it won’t feel that way until you’re profitable. Don't give up before that happens.

@MoneyQuotesX the problem is you never know if you're one day away or one year away

Most people quit right before money shows up.

the stock market is the only market where people run out of the store when things go on sale and sprint back in when prices are back to full price

@matteopelleg the education system was designed to produce workers not owners. that gap is not an accident

People spend 40 years working for money And 0 hours learning about money

@GuyTalksFinance sounds great until you run out of money to buy the dip with

Bull markets are great because everyday you get to see your portfolio making new highs. Bear markets are great because everyday you get another chance to buy financial freedom at a discount.

@lukebelmar the hard pill to swallow is that most people are looking for a shortcut to the result of doing the work when there isn't one

Do the work. Money will come. If you don't do the work you will stay broke. Life is more simple when you work hard and focus.

@SahilBloom "you can never bet against the person who just keeps showing up" is one of those lines that's been true forever and somehow keeps needing to be said

Call me old fashioned, but I think showing up is the key to life. Show up when it’s hard. Show up when no one’s watching. Show up when you don't feel like it. Show up when the rewards are uncertain. Show up. You can never bet against the person who just keeps showing up.

@Dwriteway for sure. consistency for 2 years beats going hard for 2 months. most people never find out because they quit right before the turn

Building a profitable brand is a slow process. Stop making it slower by quitting every 3 weeks

oil above $80, dow down 785 points, chips selling off on export restriction fears this is not the time to panic sell or hero buy sit tight, let the dust settle, then decide

@Didibradon no but it's possible to lose less than you win consistently

Be honest… is it possible to trade and never lose money?
