To The Moon

There’s a common image of the investor: suited, serious, armed with spreadsheets, charts, and a fancy finance degree. But scratch the surface, and we’ll find that some of the most fascinating investment stories come from people who didn’t follow that path at all. For stock investing, the basics are almost simple: open a trading app, click “buy” or “sell,” and watch the market move. Charts? Sure, they help but some of the sharpest market moves have been made by instinct, curiosity, or a hunch that defied logic. Luck sneaks in too, often wearing a tuxedo and calling itself “timing.” What’s intriguing is how people from completely unrelated industries can rise to investment mastery. Engineers, artists, and entrepreneurs may spot patterns or opportunities others overlook, not by memorizing for

I don't think investing need pro. I come from a technical position. Previously I do not have any knowledge in investing and i diversify my portfolio. Know about PE ration, RSI. I feel that my investment is in good shape. I just need to know the deep knowledge of option trading will do

Investing requires pros if one is looking at maximum returns. Otherwise, there are also many retail investors who are not pro. The more important thing is to first start and learn to be better along the way. I think finance is an industry that many have successfully switched to. All it takes is a willing heart and hard work to learn. Many retail investors do that too. I think Buffett’s ability to continue being skewed in his investments tells us that we don’t think to be physically fit to invest. Rather, it is important to be mentally fit and agile. Of course, being physically fit has its merits too as investing can require hours of focus and to deal with the physical effects of the various emotions as market swings. @SR050321

On the flip side there are many pros who fail. Most index funds do not beat the index. So selective data about a few managers who are physically fit I find the correlation non existent

this article is simply just amazing

Investing needs patience and luck

Nothing is impossible, there are many unknown people who work and also investing, they have multi streams of income. You don’t need to necessarily switch career, you can start small and continue learning and doing what you love.

We don’t need military training or six packs gym body fitness to be successful in investment. We need to be aware of the economy, business, stock fundamentals, opportunities and risk tolerance. Also, Need to be mentally strong to tread the stock market stressful times. In addition if you’re extremely fit, it is a bonus!

I’ve noticed many legendary investors successfully switched careers before excelling in finance. Beyond Dan Bin’s move from sports to asset management, Jim Simons went from mathematician to hedge fund pioneer, and Peter Lynch once worked golf course maintenance before becoming a top mutual fund manager. These stories prove that a nontraditional background can become a unique advantage. I don’t believe you must be a finance “pro” to invest well. Technical knowledge matters, but so do mindset, adaptability, and discipline — qualities you can build in many fields. Career switchers often bring fresh perspectives and problem-solving skills that insiders might miss. On physical fitness, I think it helps. Investing can be mentally and physically draining, and stamina aids clear decision-making u

I don't think investing needs to be pros. Everyone can invest in something no matter stock , fund or property as long as you have money [LOL] But I don't believe to be pros you need the experience of trading and learned through the investment.

🌟🌟🌟Scott Galloway or Prof G is a brilliant example of someone who has not just switched lanes, he has built businesses, and even become a professor in the process. Prof G started as a fixed income analyst at Morgan Stanley.  Then he pivoted to entrepreneurship, founding multiple companies.  After that he became a professor at NYU Stern University where he teaches strategy and brand marketing. Prof G went on to build a media empire with the Prof G and Pivot podcasts, blending business insights with biting humour and emotional candor. He invested USD 800K  in $Apple(AAPL)$ and $Amazon.com(AMZN)$, now worth USD 40 Million, forming the backbone of his USD 150 million net worth. What I have l

🌟🌟🌟Do I need to be physically fit to invest?  Unless Warren Buffett is secretly doing burpees before buying Apple $Apple(AAPL)$, I would say no.  But mental stamina?  That is everything!  The ability to stay calm when markets wobble to holding my ground when others panic.  Now that is a real workout. So whether I am in track pants or tailored suits, whether I have got university degree  or not, investing welcomes all of us.  Just need to bring our brain, our heart and maybe a good pair of walking  shoes. I have learnt from my experience that investing isn't just about numbers.  It is about conviction, creativity and sometimes a little chaos. @Tiger_c

🌟🌟🌟Does investing requires me to be a Pro?  Not necessarily.  But here is the twist :  Pros have access to research, teams of researchers and algorithms that can slice market data thinner than salami. But Retail Investors like you and me have something even more powerful: Freedom!  We are not bound by quarterly performance pressure.  We can think long term and invest with conviction. So no, you don't need to be a Pro to invest but you do need to be intentional and maybe a little obsessed. @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @Tiger_SG @CaptainTiger

Strange to be trading here if investing requires pro and needs to be physically fit.

1. Munger was a real estate lawyer. Buffett was a stockbroker. They both successfully transitioned into full-time investing. Druckenmiller went from a bank trainee to running his own fund, then managing Soros's fund, and then back to his own, showcasing successful switches within the finance industry. Lynch's "switch" was retiring early from fund management to focus on family and philanthropy. 2. These figures were all pros, but their philosophies, especially Lynch's "invest in what you know" and Buffett/Munger's value investing, are accessible to anyone. Their success shows that while professional expertise can be powerful, the core principles they champion can be applied by individual investors without a professional background. 3. No, physical fitness isn't a direct requirement. Th

need to be mentally fit to handle the ups and downs of the market

China’s top-performing 10-billion-yuan private fund manager, Dan Bin, said: “I graduated from a sports program, so it should have been impossible for me to work in finance — but I worked hard and changed my destiny.”Have you seen any other legendary or master investors who also switched careers?To invest well, do you first need to be physically fit? Wall Street has long embraced a culture that treats physical fitness as a form of competitiveness. Strong physical fitness is one of the best guarantees of stress resistance in investing.It’s well-known that many university graduates with sports-related majors have entered the financial industry, with some even becoming elites in the field.A Chinese-American peer once told me that when he participated in Wall Street’s decathlon 400-meter event,
