20 Most Common Investing Mistakes
Getting jealous over someone else's portfolio just leads to panic buying, or chasing hot stocks.
Envy is a 'total net loss' because it doesn't help you, and distracts you from focusing on your own long-term plan.

You don't just pay fees on your initial investment.
You pay them on every dollar of growth too.

They're about funding the life I want to live.
• Saying no to things I don't want to do.
• Taking risks without worrying about next month's bills.
