‘Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave.’
‘No investment points are awarded for difficulty or complexity. Simple strategies can lead to outstanding returns.’
‘Try to learn as many investing mistakes as possible vicariously through others. Other people have made every mistake in the book. You can learn more from studying the investing failures than the investing greats.’
Author of such simple yet thought provoking thoughts is Morgan Housel, a partner at The Collaborative Fund and a former columnist at The Motley Fool and The Wall Street Journal. His writing on money and investment is distinguished for the many insights he draws from psychology, neurology, history and sociology to highlight the behaviour of investors.
