You must be blessed with a lot of patience and forbearance to read my posts for 3 years - because I tend to harp on the same things over and over again.<br /><br />You were also one of the first subscribers to my Monthly Newsletter - one of the few to have paid 'gurudakshina' (if you will permit me to use the term).<br /><br />As long as there are readers like you, I will remain motivated to keep writing.

That may not be politically correct some times.<br /><br />One has to take responsibility for one's actions - whether it is eating or drinking too much, or investing on a hunch. If making money was as easy as opening a demat account, no one will need to go to college or university any more!<br /><br />@Ninad: Appreciate your comments.<br /><br />I have a head full of gray hair - but that is more because of hereditary reasons, less due to wisdom.<br /><br />Ambition and aggressive action work well in the corporate world or in business. Patience is more useful in stock investing. The ability to refuse Mr Market's attractive offerings and wait for an even better deal is the trait of a successful long-term investor.<br /><br />@PL: Your kind words are accepted with humility - specially because they come from a professional.<br /><br />The fact that you still find my blog posts useful after three years is great motivation for me to continue writing.

I am also a Investment Advisor and Stock Sub-broker and I always appreciate your views.<br /><br />I look forward to your posts as you give us a good perspective for an investor.<br /><br />I agree with you that Free Advice is availble a plenty and I should create my identity as a valued professional by not giving free advice.Prem Lullahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06705341771828708800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148222695370746347.post-61882518680864103262011-11-25T12:55:05.284+05:302011-11-25T12:55:05.284+05:30Some more words of wisdom from a man with a few gr...Some more words of wisdom from a man with a few grey hair. Another brilliant post! Your blog has taught a young investor (ok I am closing in on 30's soon :P) to be patient with the market. Keep it coming.

Normally you'd find gurus and pandits shy away from the question of why arent your services free.<br /><br />My two cents.<br />1) Now, even though I do it myself, but in the stock market if you are relying on others, free or paid, you are headed for uncertain times. Let me not call it a disaster. The main point is, whoever is assisting you isnt going to be there for you forever, any fees notwithstanding. Investing however, for you is a long term game. So the best way forward is to take your own decisions and keep empowering yourself with information. Sooner or later, one would learn from mistakes. And every bad experience will make you better.<br />2) "If some one really knew which stocks will become multibaggers in future, he would not tell a soul and buy as many of those stocks he could afford before the stock market got wind of it. " - Guess what, this is exactly what I used to think of these numerous guys who parrot multibaggers on TV. I mean if you know it, why don't you go buy truckloads and keep quiet. After all if everyone knows it and buys it, it is bound to underperform.<br /><br />Thanks so much! Your blog is indeed a fresh whiff of air.Jasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14267764047614537730noreply@blogger.com
