Some people are fishing for beetles, and some are fishing for shells

Answer a question from a full-level reader.

What did he ask, it was the financial woman who was hotly discussed on the Internet.

There is one thing he doesn't understand, it is said that this is a professional background, a finance student from Zhejiang University, and he also worked in finance after graduation, and he is not a novice, he is 30 years old.

So why after so many years of professional training, in fact, when I was trading for my own family, I still bought it on the hill, still only increased leverage, still did not predict the changes in the industry, and even, in the end, I still couldn't bear the psychological pressure.

In this whole process, what is the difference between buying and selling chicken feathers?

If there is no difference, then what is the point of these professional, professional? Or conversely, based on their performance, if I give them my money, can I rest assured?

That's a very good question.

Your doubts actually confirm my words, and I have repeatedly admonished you:

Investing is an art, not a technology.

The so-called technology means that there are no requirements for people themselves, or in other words, there are no spiritual requirements, no dimensional requirements.

The vast majority of people who are healthy and cognitively sound can go to work on the Foxconn assembly line after training, which is called technology.

But art is complicated because there are a lot of requirements for people, there are a lot of potential requirements, there are a lot of hidden requirements.

So you have to understand that finance is not the same as investment, it is just a service industry. Just like the finance major is to train you systematically and scaled, not to train investors for you.

Why? Because there is a market demand.

There are a large number of retail investors in the market who need such financial services, so the financial services industry was born.

In fact, if you look at the real big investors, they are not retail investors.

For example, Duan Yongping, he is also an investor, did he study finance? No, he graduated from Zhejiang University of Radio, is a businessman, and makes products.

So how did he go about investing? Is it like a retail investor, go to a financial sales and listen to other people's introduction of products?

Of course not, his investment method is essentially the topic of yesterday, the art of knowing people.

In fact, when you go to see venture capital, you are essentially looking at things and people.

Looking at things means that I look at the business model, whether I can see it or not, and looking at people means that I look at the people in the team who are trading things, and I can't look at it.

Warren Buffett says to be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful, and that's just the final description.

It's like you say that you want a person to win an Olympic gold medal, but you don't say how to get a gold medal.

In fact, the vast majority of people, including the vast majority of graduates and practitioners who have received professional training in finance, cannot do what Warren Buffett said.

Why?

Because Lao Tzu said, what you get is shocked, and what you lose is surprised.

When you rush to get something, your heart is ecstatic, and you can't calm down.

For example, if your annual salary is only 100,000 yuan, and you suddenly win the jackpot, 5 million, your heart is not quiet, and the night before receiving the prize, you may not be able to sleep at night.

This is a shocking one.

Then again, you say that you have always been excellent, that hard work has always paid off, that your salary has increased year after year, and that you have finally emptied your six wallets and bought a house with leverage.

Then you are faced with salary cuts, price reductions, all kinds of accidents come one after another, and your savings for many years are cleared overnight, and you can't stand it.

This is called a surprise.

The sentence that Warren Buffett said, the sentence of greed and fear, actually has a premise, and the premise is not to be shocked.

Only when you get rid of the mentality of being surprised and disappointed, do you have the need to read Buffett's sentence.

So how can you be pampered and not be shocked?

In fact, Lao Tzu has already given an explanation.

Therefore, I have a serious patient, because I have a body, and I have no body, what is my trouble?

What he means is that it is a disease to be surprised and to be surprised, so why are you sick?

It's because you have a body. If you don't have a body, where do you get sick?

So if you want to cure the disease, you can't cure it, only what? Only to abandon their bodies.

What Lao Tzu told you is that there is no self in Buddhism, let go of self-grasping.

There is no me, there is no body, there is no disease.

Surprised, get you ecstatic, can no longer act normally; Frightened, lost you crying bitterly, in a trance and even depressed.

At the end of the day, it's all because you have a body.

What do you get without a body? And what's missing?

The so-called loss is nothing more than the money in your pocket, and when it comes to Mr. Ma's pocket, what does it have to do with you?

You don't stick to that body anymore, isn't Mr. Ma's money still your money?

Lao Tzu is talking about an extreme situation, you do it to the extreme, which is what he describes.

But in fact, we know that even Buffett, he is far from being extreme.

I remember many years ago, Warren Buffett fooled Mr. Ma and said that he would learn from him and donate all his net worth.

And what about himself? He donated all the money, but donated it to the foundation, so that he could avoid taxes, and the foundation was run by his three children.

See? He only gave up the theoretical ownership of wealth, but his descendants have always firmly controlled the use of wealth.

However, Buffett is far from the extreme that Lao Tzu said, which does not mean that he is not an excellent investor.

Because where is the extreme that Lao Tzu said? In the position of infinity, in the position where quantitative change causes qualitative change, it is enough for you to feather and soar and become a Buddha and become an immortal.

And where are the majority? In this position of zero.

There are many steps from zero to infinity, ten hundred and quadrillion.......

Therefore, there is a degree of pampering and humiliation.

When investors are looking at a team, they are also looking up and down, how much drawdown your team can experience, commonly known as how far you are surprised.

How much wealth can you control as a team, commonly known as how much you are shocked, to what extent.

Because everyone is here like this, there is no natural Ding Yuanying, no.

Ding Yuanying also passed step by step from Liu Bing's state, he stood at the position of 100, to identify 0, to identify 1, it was like looking at himself in the pit.

He knows very well that you can pass the hurdle of 1, maybe 2 is hopeful in this life, but you can't, so stay at 0.

So technology and art are two different things, technology is a kind of repetition, and art is a kind of identification.

It's very easy for us to teach a person to shoot, just practice more.

But a person, even if the marksmanship penetrates Yang in a hundred steps, at the critical moment, you put the knife on his neck, at that moment, he can't pee his pants, no one can teach him.

It is commonly said that if he himself is enlightened, he will be enlightened, if he can reach me without a body, what is my trouble? The temperament of the whole person has completely changed.

If he can't understand it, then he has to pee.

The process of recognizing people is to check out those who are definitely not playing.

Think about it, you sift out all the things that must have no play, and you didn't sift anything, bet randomly, which one has a better chance of winning?

It must be the former.

This is the real long-termism, which is called long-termism when it is bound to be stable and profitable in the long run, and the inevitable return is greater than the pay.

Most people don't know people, commonly known as they randomly found a piece of land, and began to dig for gold, working hard all their lives, not to mention the golden beetle son-in-law, she was lucky to be able to dig up a shell.

As for professional gold diggers, no one can guarantee that every piece of ore in the vein is bare gold, but the gold content of the vein, long-term panning, is far greater than the expenditure, this is the real long-termism.

This process of exploring ore veins is called human recognition.
