Side note: This is a big difference between investors and non-investors: As investors, whenever we see someone succeed at investing, our natural tendency is to be curious about how they succeeded--we spend countless hours listening to podcasts and watching YouTube videos about other investors' successes...sometimes, we even pay to learn about other peoples' successes (for instance, we buy books on the topic).
