Interesting Dialogue between Colorado Gold Mine Buyer and Seller &  USA V/S. Iran War. 

 

Dear Fellow Travellers,

 

Jai Hind! I am observing USA behaviour V/s. IRAN in the war. I have observed the behaviour of normal investors for the last 35 years in the market. When I look at the HISTORY – we find the same things way back in 1860.  In 1858 – people found Gold in COLORADO and whole USA was running to buy land over there. Let me share an interesting incident at from that time. 

 

Gold Mine Buyers: - 

 

Looking at the rush of people towards Colorado, one millionaire decided to take a big bet. He sold all his assets and bought the mountain and mining equipment. His logic was simple: why buy small lands when we are sure of gold in Colorado? 

 

He started digging the mountains. Months passed; years passed. Gold didn’t come out. His money was running out. His family was stressed, and friends told him the usual thing: "We told you not to invest so much." He continued anyhow. Finally he lost all. So, he put the mines for selling. 

 

Now, the people said – it’s proven that our mines have not GOLD. Whey somebody would buy? He said – the way I was fool – some other fool will come and buy. He proved right – one guy came and bought all the mountains with his equipment. 

 

The seller was honest – he said – I have not found the gold. Why you are buying this mine? 

 

The buyer replied – I know. But the fact is – up to the level you have dig – the gold is not found. We don’t know below that level – there may be gold. Also, there are areas of the mountains where you have not dug; I may find the gold there. 

 

The buyer started digging and he found the biggest gold reserves in Colorado just 1ft down. 

 

The seller went to him and said – you are LUCKY. It was my bad luck that I couldn’t find the gold and you found the same. 

 

The interesting reply and fact of the investment world – “It’s not about LUCK my friend. You didn’t play the game fully. You didn’t have conviction in your calculations.” 

 

What about USA and IRAN? 

 

IRAN is ready to DIE. USA is not. See IRAN is winning and USA has to find out the reasons for halting the WAR in the name of CEASE FIRE. 

IRAN is giving all.  

What about INVESTORS? 

 

I have closely observed the big investors pains when they have a big positions and market is not moving as per their expectations. 

 

Buffett taught me a beautiful lesson – you are not right because market moves up after your purchase and you are not wrong because market moves up after your purchase. You are right because – your calculations proves your bet. 

 

He also said – we are investing forever. There is no target. 

Normal investor comes from a salary or fixed return mentality. They want something for sure. They have diversified portfolio instead of focused bets. They lack the calculations before the investing and lack conviction after the investing. No doubt they always remain NORMAL. 

 

Because they lack the calculation and conviction – they are easily manipulated by the big guys with the MUTUAL FUNDS and SIP. They give them peanut returns and big part is enjoyed by them.

 

When they invest big – sometimes – they don’t understand the subtle difference between GAMBLING and CALCULATED RISK. When they gamble based on tip or market euphoria – they assume they have taken a calculated risk. When they lose, they blame luck, the person who advised them, and other things. But the fact is simple: he lacked the calculations. 

 

What NEXT? 

 

Investing is simple. Money making is also very simple. Those who are promising you EASY ways – SURE SHOT Ways – GAURANTEED RETURNS – all are manipulating you.  There is only one guarantee for all living beings: they will die someday for sure. 

 

Give your 100% to the market, and the market will give you its 100%. If you are not committed – market will have no hesitation in throwing you out. 

 

In last two years Indian market has not given returns. So, the GAMBLING MENTALITY Retails guys are getting out. As per the media report today – ACTIVE EQUITY INVESTORS have REDUECED to 4.57 Crores now, compared to 4.90 Crores in the last year.

 

Like the buyer of the COLORADO mine – you have the opportunity to buy stocks at your price – at your speed when gamblers are going out. Just use COMMON SENSE – CALCUALTIONS and CONVICTIONS. 

 

All the best.
