TIMELESS INVESTMENT WISDOM YOU NEED TO KNOW

Imagine this: what if your entire investment career was limited to just 20 major decisions?

That's the core insight from one of history's greatest investors. The concept is deceptively simple yet profound—instead of constant trading and constant market chasing, you're forced to make each move count.

Here's the harsh truth about retail trading: most people overtrade. They punch their ticket too many times on mediocre opportunities, diluting their returns and amplifying risk through bad decisions.

The real game-changer? Strategic selectivity. Quality over quantity. Every punch matters.

Think about crypto trading the same way. Instead of chasing every altcoin pump, every DeFi opportunity, every new token launch—what if you applied ruthless discipline? What if you only entered your 20 best-conviction trades?

Your portfolio would look different. Your stress levels would drop. Your returns would likely spike.

That's not just philosophy. That's practical wealth building. Whether you're in Bitcoin, Ethereum, or emerging crypto assets, this principle never gets old: be selective, be patient, be deliberate.

That's right, you just need to control yourself and not act impulsively, but the reality is that most people simply can't do it... seeing a coin and wanting to buy it.

That's very true, but I realize that most people simply can't do it... Just look at the guys in the group chasing new coins every day, and you'll see that self-discipline is even harder than finding good projects.

20 decisions? Sounds like you're talking about my trading history... Every time I make a vow, the results are all lessons learned through blood and tears.

ngl the 20 trades thesis is just warren buffett's playbook repackaged for crypto degens... most won't have the discipline anyway, they'll fomo into trade 47 before lunch

You're right, but 99% of people simply can't do it... I myself am itching to buy the dip on new coins every day.

Exactly right, 20 chances are really enough. I'm now reflecting on what I was doing with all those messy shitcoins before... Now I only focus on BTC and ETH, less messing around and more making money.
