A few key decisions early in my trading career and my financial life completely changed for the better in just a few years.
1. No big losses
2. No averaging down
3. No chasing extended stocks
4. No giving back decent profits
5. Always get odds on my money

Positive signs on inflation include fertilizer prices peaking and trending downward. Used Car prices are also down (which led inflation). The recent price break on the $XLE - which emerged almost to the day the market topped, could be an indication that we are close to a low. pic.twitter.com/2MtcKjjmAz

In any performance business the bottom line is winning, hitting the goal, getting the job done. Winners do what they have to do to win. Losers make excuses why they didn't perform. A way to win and a way to lose ALWAYS exists. It's a matter of the quality of the choices we make. pic.twitter.com/RXvu4o4FBC

1. IQ is one of the most heritable psychological traits – that is, individual differences in IQ are strongly associated with individual differences in genes (at least in fairly typical modern environments). https://t.co/3XxzW9bxLE
2. The heritability of IQ *increases* from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, nurture less. https://t.co/UqtS1lpw3n
3. IQ scores have been increasing for the last century or so, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. https://t.co/sCZvCst3hw (N ≈ 4 million)
(Note that the Flynn effect shows that IQ isn't 100% genetic; it doesn't show that it's 100% environmental.)
4. IQ predicts many important real world outcomes.
For example, though far from perfect, IQ is the single-best predictor of job performance we have – much better than Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five, Grit, etc. https://t.co/rKUgKDAAVx https://t.co/DWbVI8QSU3
5. Higher IQ is associated with a lower risk of death from most causes, including cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, most forms of cancer, homicide, suicide, and accident. https://t.co/PJjGNyeQRA (N = 728,160)
