Now let’s recount the reason we, or I if you don’t want to eat my words with me, have to try to analyze the man’s success under lesser lights. As mentioned before, by the lowest estimate, Buffett turned 610 thousand into 148 billion. My prior differentiation suggests that I don’t have $610,000 but at the […]
Let’s recount the reasons why we should like Warren Buffett. For starters his discipline illustrated in his investing is obviously unmatched. This discipline lends itself to his consistency. To exemplify the awesomeness of this consistency, let’s look at a specific example. When we turned his history into a math problem:
we concluded that in order […]
Just like earlier, when I suggested the idea that any interpretations of my words regarding the movie pi which opined anything resembling dislike were not necessarily true, I must now too suggest the same about other words: those I said regarding Warren Buffett. And I will suggest it in the same way. About the movie […]
How does one then, go about justifying one’s presumptuousness which was presented as the stock premise of “being the best” (i.e. most profitable) which came about as the entry into a dialogue between like-minded (hopefully) people—because sharing what’s one interesting thing about the world is at least as good as spending it—and not necessarily exclusively […]
As strange as it might sound, I’m going to honestly reveal the unpopular notion of mine that holding stocks for a long time has never seemed to be the smartest way to capitalize on their movement in price. But I should qualify “the smartest.” If one takes that to mean: the way in which one […]

This epigraph, besides being the fundamental set of instructions needed to illuminate […]
So what’s my point? If my point seems like an elaborate, protracted assault on the underlying principles behind a main recurring theme in the movie pi then you better deduct a few more points from my prudence. If however, there seems to be something more to it than that, then I better add some to […]
Now then let’s get to work. If any of you have seen the movie pi then you are probably familiar with the “assumptions” that the character Max mentions several times:
1. Mathematics is the language of nature.2. Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers.3. If you graph these numbers, patterns emerge.Therefore: There are […]
Welcome to the best stock trading in the world.
Wait. Does that sound a bit presumptuous?
It is, but for good reason. And this blog is intended to prove it. Shortly, I’ll begin by chronicling this little adventure of mine, and by doing so publicly, it will become yours as well.
I wrestled with the question of […]
