The real test of investing isn't finding great companies or buying their shares, it's holding them for 5+ years when the business is thriving and the stock price is telling a completely different story
a lambo is not a flex, neither is a rolex. if you want to flex, show me how many employees you’ve got.
show me how many people get a check from you every single month so they can pay their rent, buy groceries, feed their families & send their kids to good schools, that’s the real flex.
the growth of my company is measured by how the lives of my employees change over time. what can they afford now that they couldn’t afford before? whose kids are getting a better education? who moved into a better home? who fully paid off their loans? who finally stopped living paycheck to paycheck and started breathing financially free?
how many families do you support? how many people are you empowering? that is the fucking flex not the lambo, not the rolex and definitely not the bank balance.
There is something about living in downtown Toronto that ruins every other neighbourhood for you. 🇨🇦
Everything is walking distance. The lake is right there.
The lights at night make the city look like it is always happening.
Then you move to the suburbs and spend the rest of your life explaining why you left.
