I told Peter that index ETFs like CSPX are the ultimate long-term compounding machine, convinced him to buy in, and then completely ghosted his WhatsApp messages the week the market dipped.
When he finally ran into me at our regular meetup and asked why his portfolio was bleeding red, I looked him dead in the eye, adjusted my titanium frames, and told him with absolute zen: 'Peter, true growth requires suffering. I was simply testing your diamond hands.'
He still hasn't spoken to me since, but hey at least his portfolio is building character and it takes more than courage to build character. [Happy] [Miser] [Cool]
