I came across this blog post by @Bhuvan, found it interesting and thought it would be a good read for others as well.
Got to learn a bit of Greek mythology and the origin of the term “Pandora’s Box”.
Some excerpts from the post i found interesting :
The best thing about reading is not that it makes you smart — it doesn’t. What it does, though, is give you some perspective and change the way you think.
Not having FOMO (fear of missing out) is the most important financial skill. It’s crucial for building wealth. If you are susceptible to FOMO, it’s hard to accumulate significant wealth over time.
It doesn’t bother me to see others getting rich. I don’t get jealous or anxious about others’ success.
I am perfectly happy watching you get very rich doing something I would never want to do.
My investing strategy is to stick with index funds for as long as possible and to be average for an above-average period of time.
The ability to do nothing when the entire world is going mad is nothing short of a superpower.
If your perception of other people’s realities becomes your benchmark, the only outcome that’s guaranteed is pure, unadulterated misery. It’s not easy to be content, but unless we find contentment, it’s impossible to have a meaningful life.
I don’t know a human being who, when they reach a goal they’ve set themselves, isn’t dissatisfied. Absolutely always an anticlimax.
