What to invest in? — truthful answer.
16 years ago, I became acquainted with the stock market. How it happened is a separate story, I’m ready to tell you if the opportunity arises. I was a client, an expert, a trader and an investor. In 2011, he founded the “School of Stock Exchange Skills”. But he soon returned to psychological practice. Those who have ever conducted transactions on the stock exchange know what it is. It’s like the first flight on an airplane, the first sex. First kiss, and first grade in school. Someone has a need to do a second, third, and master this topic thoroughly. Some people become afraid. But few remain indifferent. Since then, as they say, a lot of water has flown under the bridge. But periodically, people who know me ask me a question.
What to invest in?
The answer depends on who is asking it.
When I was just learning about this topic, like many others, I carried out technical, fundamental analysis. I mastered strategy and compiled portfolios. I know thousands of people who did the same. And they lost their savings. I lost too. But he earned significantly more. I am incredibly grateful for this experience.
For most people, I would completely prohibit them from visiting the stock exchange. After all, for them this is a kind of alternative to a casino.
Now, I am one of the few psychologists in Russia who eliminates stock market addiction. (By the way, I’m writing a textbook on this topic).
