📢 A meeting of the coolest investors is underway. One, who looks the most seasoned, asks another, young and ambitious:
— Tell me, do you invest in Tesla stocks?
— Of course! — replies the young one. — This is the future!
— And in Apple?
— Definitely! Innovations, stability!
— And in gold?
— Well, that’s boring, but as insurance — yes.
— But what about the fact that next week your grandmother will finally decide to sell her pickles at the market for pennies, would you invest in that?
The young investor looks at him in confusion:
— Um... Why? That’s not serious! There’s no profit there.
The old investor smirks:
— That’s the whole difference, son. You look for the market, while an experienced investor looks for the opportunity, even if it smells like dill.
Meaning: A true investor sees potential where others see only the mundane, and is ready to invest not only in obvious giants but also in niche, sometimes even absurd at first glance, opportunities if they promise profit.
