Seneca on Gratitude
“I am grateful, not in order that my neighbour, provoked by the earlier act of kindness, may be more ready to benefit me, but simply in order that I may perform a most pleasant and beautiful act.” More here – Brain Pickings

In 1941 Japan possessed the most powerful fleet air arm in the world, its pilots and aircraft were second to none and they had introduced the world to the power of the carrier battle group. The 1st Air Fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy which was also known as the Kido Butai had devastated Pearl…
Honnold is history’s greatest ever climber in the free solo style, meaning he ascends without a rope or protective equipment of any kind. Above about 50 feet, any fall would likely be lethal, which means that, on epic days of soloing, he might spend 12 or more hours in the Death Zone. On the hardest…
Every now and again you hear of someone who managed to win the lottery with their magic scheme, you might even hear that some mathematician has found out what numbers are most likely to be drawn. When I hear of such things I am always amazed that said mathematician seems to confuse lucky with random…
In the first quarter of last year I begin to tinker with my short term system – in fact the tinkering was so extreme that it essentially became a brand new system. Fortunately, this tinkering coincided with a the onset of a new financial year so I have a full year of data to review…

IF YOU’RE KEPT IN a playpen, you can only play with the toys you can reach. Even if it’s a well stocked playpen, the dreamer… the trader… the entrepreneur… we’ll be the ones planning our escape to play with the even bigger toys outside the playpen. We’re insatiable that way. A deep hunger – for…
I LOVE THIS LITTLE mantra from John Lavi – a member of our 2010 repeat-for-free Mentor Program. He kindly sent it to me recently: May I be patient, May I follow my trading process, in confidence, with excellence. May I be mindful of price action, and follow my trading plan, with conviction, with determination –…
YOU CAN INCREASE your intelligence. “The fact is, intelligence can be increased – and quite dramatically,” writes behavior-analytic psychologist Bryan Roche of the National University of Ireland in Psychology Today. “Those who claim that IQ is fixed for life are in fact referring to our IQ test scores, which are relatively stable – not to…
EVEN AFTER I STARTED to make money, I still had some hang-ups: In my pantry, you’d find around 20 boxes of cereal. After eating Homebrand cardboard-tasting cereal for so many years, having yummy cereal somehow represents prosperity. I don’t mind earning the money, but I have an aversion to seeing how much money we’re forking…
IN 2004, A LUCKY SINGLE mother won $10.5 million in the Ontario lottery. Her name was Candy Adams. What did that windfall do for her life, her goals and her values? Surely she parlayed that into incredible success? Well… no. After becoming a millionaire overnight, she spent all that lovely money on designer clothes, parties,…
Long story made short – fund managers from poor backgrounds make better fund managers than those from wealthy backgrounds. Which does make sense when you think about it not only in terms of drive and the will to succeed without a safety net but also a greater understanding of the need to husband resource. Abstract…
I found this neat little chart on the total market cap of all crypto currencies. Since January the market has lost about $584B. So much for replacing money as we know it. The only similarity between cryptocurrencies and money as it is currency defined is that the saying a fool and his money are soon…
This is not a new observation but rather one that has simply been reinforced via observation over the last little while. We will all if given the opportunity find the mechanism of our own self destruction.
Apparently according to financial journalists the Shanghai Composite is now officially in a bear market because it has fallen the mandatory 20%. I do wish they would pay attention to what is actually happening. The first chart below shows my usual value of $1 invested i the index. As you can see the glory days…
