    I spent 15 years taking notes for it. I spent 41 years picking stocks for it. I spent 6 months writing it (and loved every moment). I hope you’ll love it too. 📗 My aim with Rule Breaker Investing is to make YOU: Smarter, Happier, and Richer.

    Yes, it’s true. I’m changing my focus from publicly picking stocks to other endeavors. However, of course(!), #FoolForLife! My full statement: fool.com/investing/stoc… ❤️❤️❤️ to all my Fools and Rule Breakers everywhere!

    With $NVDA now up over $160, I can officially announce that for @themotleyfool members, my cost basis of 16 cents makes @TMFStockAdvisor's position in Nvidia, bought and held since 2005: A 1000-bagger! 🙂 My second (first was Amazon). 🎆🎉🎆🌟🎆🃏🎆

    If $NVDA manages to close at $326+ today, it will become my third 200+-bagger for @TMFStockAdvisor members. You go, girl!

    Remember, the market drops one year in every three, historically… it doesn't make any sense to jump in or jump out… … so I try NOT to be a BEAR MARKET HERO… … and thus I'm going to take my lumps... I don't sell out ahead of time... I just ride it all the way through.

    I try to find excellence, buy excellence, and add to excellence over time. I sell mediocrity. That’s how I invest.
