The entire thread summarizes some important rules with respect to investing. Inspired by legendary traders,these will not only help you to grow wealth,but also make a smart investor. Hope you would like the thread & shower some love

Rule 1: Bulls, Bears Make Money, Pigs Get Slaughtered so chose your category wisely
Rule 2: It's OK to Pay the Taxes,Dont just wait for a 10% LTCG always. Sometimes you know it won't pay you
Rule 3: Don't Buy All at Once,Have patience market will give enough opportunities
Rule 4: Buy Damaged Stocks, Not Damaged Companies. Understand the diff b/w undervalued stocks and no value stocks. Everything cheap is not bargain,it could be trap.
Rule 5: Diversify to Control Risk,make sure you don't put everything into one stock,one sector or one asset class.
Rule 6: Do Your Stock Homework. You spend 5 hours to buy a cream on Amazon but research for 1 hr based on buying a stock on twitter! Well,do your homework.

Rule 7: No One Made a Dime by Panicking .Invest 2-10% and leave rest. If it falls,pain will be low,if moves,no FOMO haunt
Rule 8: Buy Best-of-Breed Companies,This doesnt mean you have to invest in the most expensive companies,all it means is you need to buy co.s with good earnings,promoters and sustainability
Rule 9: Defend Some Stocks, Not All
Rule 10: Bad Buys Won't Become Takeovers,STOP hoping
Rule 11: Don't Own Too Many Names,Diversification is fine but don't overdiversify like 40-50 stocks. It would diminsh the returns on portfolio.

Rule 12: Cash Is for Winners,Holding on to cash is never bad,sometimes during dark times it helps to buy things at bargain
Rule 13: Expect, Don't Fear Corrections. Corrections and fall are a part of cycle but remember markets historically after a pause have always moved up. Its good to trip positions in expectations but not fear.

Rule 15: Don't Forget Bonds. Diversifying some part here is good.

This thread is about the top reasons why most traders fail. If you want more finance and business related threads on regular basis,don't forget to retweet and share with your friends.

1. Negligence of risk management
While we can't foresee what the business sectors will do before long, hours, or days, however we do have full power over our danger levels at some random time. Risk management not just includes stop loss but also avoiding unnecessary trades.

2. Not having it planned out
A philosophy, or set of rules, is necessary. The business sectors can be tumultuous and confounding, particularly for somebody without a particular game plan that can be utilized over and over. Hence,planning essentially is going to help in any case.

3. Wanting to be always right
Numerous unpracticed informal investors center a lot around their triumphant rate. There will be times when you'll question your trading abilities, or even think whether trading is the correct occupation for you. No one is right always,cut losses.

4. Bad risk-to-reward ratio
There are two reasons traders end up with a poor risk-to-reward ratio:
a. They don't have an exit plan and rather essentially respond to the market without doing maths.

b. They can't hold their winnersโ€ฆ yet they hold their losers.

I hate when I learn something new (to me) & stunning about the Jeff Epstein network (h/t MoodyKnowsNada.)

Where to begin?

So our new Secretary of State Anthony Blinken's stepfather, Samuel Pisar, was "longtime lawyer and confidant of...Robert Maxwell," Ghislaine Maxwell's Dad.


"Pisar was one of the last people to speak to Maxwell, by phone, probably an hour before the chairman of Mirror Group Newspapers fell off his luxury yacht the Lady Ghislaine on 5 November, 1991."

OK, so that's just a coincidence. Moving on, Anthony Blinken "attended the prestigious Dalton School in New York City"...wait, what? https://t.co/DnE6AvHmJg

Dalton School...Dalton School...rings a

Oh that's right.

The dad of the U.S. Attorney General under both George W. Bush & Donald Trump, William Barr, was headmaster of the Dalton School.

Donald Barr was also quite a


I'm not going to even mention that Blinken's stepdad Sam Pisar's name was in Epstein's "black book."

Lots of names in that book. I mean, for example, Cuomo, Trump, Clinton, Prince Andrew, Bill Cosby, Woody Allen - all in that book, and their reputations are spotless.
"I lied about my basic beliefs in order to keep a prestigious job. Now that it will be zero-cost to me, I have a few things to say."


We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.

Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)

It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.

Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".
ADI SHANKAR AND SRI TOTAKACHARYA

Adi Shankaracharya chose his disciple Totakacharya to be the first head of the Math at Joshimath.
The Narsingh Mandir (Mandir of Sri Narasimha) in Joshimath is one of the 108 Divyadesams and also the home of Badrinath during the winter months.


Totakacharya was earlier a boy named โ€˜Giriโ€™ and a devout disciple of Adi Shankaracharya. Unlike others, he was not known to be an expert in Shastras but his dedication to his Guru was complete and he used to listen to His discourses with utmost faith and devotion.
@SriRamya21


One morning as Adi Shankara and his disciples were getting ready for the discourse, Giri was delayed. The other disciples urged their Guru to commence the lesson on Bramhsutra Bhashya telling him that Giri would anyway not be able to comprehend its deep meaning.
@RajeAiyer


Adi Shankar responded โ€œเคจเคพเคฏเคฎเคพเคคเฅเคฎเคพ เคชเฅเคฐเคตเคšเคจเฅ‡เคจ เคฒเคญเฅเคฏเฅ‹ เคจ เคฎเฅ‡เคงเคฏเคพโ€ โ€“ Atman cannot be attained through discourses or mere intellect.
He,then, awakened the supreme knowledge in Giri.
Giri spontaneously composed: เคถเฅเคฐเฅ€ เคถเค™เฅเค•เคฐเคฆเฅ‡เคถเคฟเค•เคพเคทเฅเคŸเค•เคฎเฅ extolling his Guruโ€™s grace.


Adi Shankaracharya granted sanyasa to Giri and gave him the name Totakacharya.
The story of how Giri became Totakacharya is a great example of the importance of faith and devotion in your Guru and not the mere knowledge of the Shastras.
