The good news about the recent market turmoils is that Index Funds donโ€™t have an ego.

โœ” They wonโ€™t commit fraud against you or gate your withdrawals or transfer your money from one company to the next to cover losses made from idiotic mistakes.

โœ” Youโ€™re never going to get caught up in a Ponzi Scheme investing in a total stock market index fund.

Yes, saving money regularly into index funds is boring. ๐Ÿฅฑ๐Ÿ˜ด

And you canโ€™t brag about boring to your friends & co-workers.

But when the boring stuff doesnโ€™t work it usually means underperformance.

Once again: Survival is an underrated quality for success.

Does anybody have an opinion about that?

Let the comments begin.

โ€œPlay iterated games. All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest.โ€ โ€” Naval Ravikant

“All portfolio problems stem from investorโ€™s inability to stick with a boring old asset allocation.” – Ben Carlson

โ€œTo build wealth it didnโ€™t matter when you bought U.S. stocks, just that you bought them and kept buying them. It didnโ€™t matter if valuations were high or low. It didnโ€™t matter if you were in a bull market or a bear market. All that mattered was that you kept buying.โ€ โ€“ Nick Maggiulli, Just Keep Buying
