Comment

I didn't really sell Sberbank $SBRCY, but they are ADRs. Since I can't trade with them anymore because of the sanctions against Russia and the war outbreak, I don't know how long these sanctions will last. So, I decided to write it off as a loss.
Money is a tool, not a master.
Let's make sure it's serving us, not the other way around.
Let's use it to build a better life, not just a better status.
Remember, the best things in life aren't things. They're experiences.
"When valuing an asset, use the simplest model that you can. If you can value an asset with three inputs, don’t use five. If you can value a company with three years of forecasts, forecasting 10 years of cash flows is asking for trouble. Less is more."
Aswath Damodaran, The Little Book of Valuation
2 under-the-radar companies with deep moats:
1. Société des Bains de Mer (ENXTPA: BAIN) - Exclusive casino rights in Monaco.
2. Transurban Group (ASX: TCL) - Australian toll road operator with 50% EBITDA margins and built-in annual price escalators.
"The time of maximum pessimism is the best time to buy, and the time of maximum optimism is the best time to sell."

"An investor is a person who is convinced that long term investment returns are perfectly correlated to the underlying earnings of the business bought in relation to the paid price."
