This is the way. From what I read, it's really, really hard to time the market, and often, not even that lucrative. One of the best strategies seems to be to go against human nature, and be patient, consistent, and to stick to a plan over a long time.
- bartvk 5y agoYeah and I get that lots of people don't feel like parking 15% of their savings in something that's not really yielding. But it keeps the heartburn away :)
- Breza 5y agoI totally agree. I have no idea what's happened to the stock market over the past week and I'm at peace with that. If the market goes up, I have more money. If the market goes down, it means I'm getting a better deal with my per-paycheck investment transactions. I recently finished When Genius Failed, which is a great book that further convinced me to stick with my lazy approach.
