📢 Two investors meet. One is all nervous, thin, with dark circles under his eyes. The other is calm, relaxed, as if just back from a resort.
The first one asks: "Hey, how do you manage to stay so calm? The market is in turmoil, my stocks are falling, I can't sleep at night!"
The second one smiles: "I sleep like a baby. When the market is rising — I sleep because I'm making money. And when it falls… I sleep because there's nothing I can do about it!"
Moral of the joke:
This joke highlights the importance of a long-term approach and psychological resilience in investing. The hustle and constant worries about short-term market fluctuations often lead to wrong decisions and stress. Sometimes it's better to let go of the situation and wait for the strategy to work, rather than panic and take rash actions.
