Because you're obviously so much smarter than the rest of us.....

Learn how to respectfully disagree with other people instead of always denigrating and putting down everyone who has a different opinion than you.
I am objectively that much smarter than the rest of you.

Do I need to dig up all of your lecturing posts from a year ago about how to invest?

Do we really need to start comparing MCAT scores here?

Every single person who has called a bull market since 2009 is correct - does that make everyone a genius?

No but it makes those who called for doom and gloom crash and burn a bunch of morons.

MCAT predicts nothing outside of success in passing written boards. Some of the worst clinical residents I’ve worked with/trained had the best MCAT and board scores. You can have all the knowledge in the world and lack all clinical intuition.

What are people arguing here?

The S&P 500 has historically averaged about 10-11% every year. Meaning if one invested $1,000 in 1950, it would be about $2 million today.

Warren Buffet has said many times that the absolute best way to invest long term is to simply put your money into a S&P 500 ETF.

You listen to Warren Buffet? Really? Why would anyone listen to a common sense, level headed guy like him when you have fabiani12333, hermanotarjeta, and mfw13 here telling you the sky is falling? If you can't trust these three guys, then I don't know what to tell you.

Sure, they are always wrong, but other than that, why would you not heed their advice?

It also makes those who push back on doom and gloomers insecure.

Is that known as “card smarts?”

‘Cause that makes everyone here a board certified card genius.

But it doesn’t mean everyone here has a good table-side manner.

As usual, you have this thing pegged, Anus. You are not out there spraying random comments all over the place. You just drop some solid knowledge and go on your way.

Loving the back and forth on this, keep it up BO!

So many people actively competing for the Biggest Douche title.

What do you do for living? Are you a physician? A lot of times you talk like you are a financial analyst. I am so confused.

Anyone who's been on here for a long period of time knows Kahl is objectively smarter than 99%.. as$hole too, but he's nicer on IG.

I am a physician. Equities are my second hobby.

Not to take away from the high level of intellect that happens to be on these boards, but there are a few people here that automatically push others up due to their inability to use common sense and logic. By default, all of us here are smarter than the people here who manage to miss the point, even when its clearly labeled.
