@InvestSpecial It’s not like he’s buying very durable and predictable businesses either. From what I’ve seen, he’s also buying businesses that might not exist in 10 years. It’s the nature of capitalism.
Honestly I felt dumber after reading his post.
@Bkclaims I mean yea if you inflate your expenses to $400k a year but that’s not the reality. Mostly all of my friends pocket $250k+ a year and have a $1mm in the bank by 30.
Only city in the world where this isn’t abnormal.
@ReneSellmann@InvestLikeBest Excuses excuses, this is exactly what people who underperform say. Why is it that I never hear PMs who actually generate alpha talk like this?
Focusing on fundamentals is a disadvantage? Yeah, right. Your inability to properly value businesses is the real disadvantage.
@orrdavid Hey David, this is a bit off topic, but I remember a few years back you mentioned that investors might be better off studying Ken Griffin rather than traditional value investors. Do you have any reading or book recommendations on that?
@siyul@everyonehatesp1 I would actually say the opposite. It's one of the few industires where you can earn a solid ROE for extended periods of time without having a competitve advantage relative to your competitors.
@marketplunger1 That's a solid agrument but a few of them have cash flow margins in the 20-30% range which makes 4-6x sales very reasonable.
In aggregate I think most of them look fairly valued after this sell off.
@ToddWenning This happened to me right out of college. Multiple rounds of interviews at Lincoln financial. I accepted the job and even received a signing bonus.
