You just did it in the wrong order: 1. Buy the index 2. Check your portfolio multiple times a day Now it's less like gambling and more like being entertained looking at your fish tank.

1) buy the index (and maybe some bonds) 2) find the friend, colleague, or housemate who’s a degenerate market gambler 3) let their Hot Picks and Levered Options serve as your fish tank. Complete with the roller coaster of (their) emotion!

  Just put 5 bucks on the skins, it’s just as entertaining and a lot cheaper.

    It's not though, it's 5 bucks more expensive. Supposedly watching a "friend, colleague, or housemate" is free.

I present the Waterluvian Investment Strategy: 1) buy the index 2) set up monthly deposits into it 3) forget it exists 4) get an annual report 5) try to feel smart, only foiled by the fact that it was 11pm and you didn’t know where your money was 6) GOTO 3
