I believe Charlie Munger once said: “The big money is not in the buying or selling, but in the waiting.”
And then there is the other saying that the stock market is a mechanism for transferring wealth from the impatient to the patient.
Of course on the other hand, being one of the long time sufferers here, I can sympathize and concur with some of those feelings of frustration.
I don’t think Buffet and Munger really thought of timelines like more than 12 years when they referred to patience. Of course we have no choice so I have acquired the ability to be patient.
