I enjoyed reading your post... all of it. You are correct, many people I know treat the stock market like a casino. Pretty much ends in the same way as going to the casino... most of them loose... few win. Especially with social media it pretty much has become a casino in a way. Lolz. :)

Long term thinking is the key to any success I believe. Sure there are times when we do hit jackpot but when I think about the history of how my behaviors were... the ones I didn't touch and left alone made more profit than the ones I bought and sold often... We learn, and we move on. hehehehe.

Thanks for the insight.
