you only get:
1 summer with them as a baby
3 as a toddler
5 as a child
3 as a preteen
6 as a teen
so let them run barefoot,
turn on the sprinkler,
cut up the watermelon,
chase fireflies under fading golden skies
because the summers of sticky hands, sun tired kids, and slow evenings filled with the sounds of childhood
do not last forever 🤍
What a great post.
Anytime we find ourselves on the wrong side of the market, we must learn something from it and figure out what we missed.
It is true that the markets can remain irrational for long periods of time, and don't always have to "make sense" on shorter time frames.
I think Jamie deserves props for writing this and I am going to follow him to see what his views on the market will be in the future.
I'd rather follow someone who has the courage to make posts like this, than someone who does not.
When people make public calls and get it wrong (like I have many times), it really starts to change something inside of you.
It's make your future views more educated, better articulated, and with better understanding of the counter thesis.
My wife makes $0.00/yr
Yet her value is immeasurable:
-My home is clean
-My meals are delicious
-Anything I need is handled
-My children are dressed well and cared for
There's nothing "weak" about stay-at-home women who prioritize their family over a company's bottom dollar
