In our society, it's been the men who've handled most of the finances, and the women who've stood by and watched men botch things up.

The natural-born investor is a myth.

I can't recall ever once having seen the name of a market timer on Forbes' annual list of the richest people in the world. If it were truly possible to predict corrections, you'd think somebody would have made billions by doing it.

The extravagance of any corporate office is directly proportional to management's reluctance to reward the shareholders.

Twenty years in this business convinces me that any normal person using the customary three percent of the brain can pick stocks just as well, if not better, than the average Wall Street expert.

Average investors can become experts in their own field and can pick winning stocks as effectively as Wall Street professionals by doing just a little research.

That's not to say there's no such thing as an overvalued market, but there's no point worrying about it.
