Warren Buffet listed in many places as the greatest stock picker is to me an interesting character. The guy is like 90 years old and he regularly says he buys stock for the long term. Buffet like has become, if I recall an adverb.

Buffet has admitted that he does not often beat the S&P 500. He has also said he lost 45 million on that trade-it was a mistake. If, people followed my advice and lost 45 million there would be a lot of people wondering how they could be so stupid as to listen to me.

We all make our own choices. The trouble is when we make money we scream how bright we are. When, we lose we want to blame someone else and have them pay our loss.
