做只安静孤独的乌龟

The price of memory sticks has increased tenfold, it's the first time I've seen such a market in my lifetime. In the real economy, the tortoise has already sold all the memory sticks at the highest point and exchanged them for shares in branded traditional Chinese medicine and high-end liquor, waiting for the stock price to increase tenfold as well [哈哈][哈哈][哈哈]

"The highest realm of life is to learn to be alone and enjoy solitude."
Solitude is an important experience in life, because only in moments of solitude can one meet their own soul.
True brilliance is not becoming the anxiety in others' eyes, but being true to oneself and mastering one's own life.

The universe is vast, the mind is limitless, ambitions reach far, and understanding the bigger picture is destined to achieve greatness. The strongest mindset a person can have is to accept the unpredictability of life and allow everything to happen. Make changes within what is possible based on reality. Endure loneliness to stand out; endure darkness to see the universe.

Smart people can awaken by looking at history; Kind people can awaken by accepting the truth; Ignorant people must experience disasters and bloodshed to awaken; Foolish people won't awaken even after dying. [laughcry][laughcry][laughcry]

To achieve great things, one must master three skills:
First, one must have a long vision. One should be far-sighted, have strategic insight, and must never sacrifice the big picture for small gains, nor let the temptation of immediate benefits affect the overall situation.
Second, one must be able to endure. One must restrain their desires, control their hatred, and manage their impatience; only with a calm mind can one go further.
Third, one must be resolute. Be strict with oneself, do not seek comfort, do not fear change, and do not dwell on gains and losses; when it's time to take action, just take action.

Quantification is like a turtle's child, following human nature, buying at the bottom and selling at the top. After the market adopts quantification, this trend will become more pronounced. If you don't have a strong heart, you can only be used and manipulated by others. It is very difficult for people to manage themselves well; learning to detach (to exit the play) is essential knowledge. Then, guard your own circle of competence, align knowledge and action, believe in the power of belief, bravely embrace impermanence, and always maintain a calm mind. Value investing will then become a natural outcome.

In recent years, by doing subtraction, I have given up many opportunities in the real economy, and similarly avoided risks in the real economy. By writing on Weibo, I drained all the thoughts in my mind, and then within a few short years, I read a large number of books, hundreds including investment, history, and philosophy, and watched a lot of videos, movies, and TV shows about human nature. Throughout human history, there has always been fame and wealth, and those philosophers and great figures were not philosophers and great figures from the beginning; they were all ordinary people who simply did what ordinary people are reluctant to do and do not want to admit.

Investing in major pharmaceutical brands directly into the financing warehouse, not sure how long it will last, but will invest as much money as there is, without involving others in the operation, risks are self-borne, haters will be directly blocked. [Effort][Effort][Effort]

Don't chase things that are trending, especially those that have gone crazy for a while. I don't know why I have an inexplicable resistance to technology; it might be due to a deep-seated sense of 'not being ambitious' acting up again. Just recording that the Sairis 174 has dropped to 96, with a decline of -45% over 5 months.

For the unreachable and unknown fields, maintain a sense of awe; for familiar fields, cultivate deeply, repeat, and maintain love. For things that are extremely high and hot, keep a distance to avoid the herd effect and disasters; for things that are extremely low and cold, maintain confidence, nurture positivity, give sunlight, and evoke new life. Integrate yourself into this nature, stay humble in the secular world, and protect your body; amidst the noisy fireworks, maintain a sense of clarity, and let go of all worries and joys, as they are all illusions of the mind.
Netizen "Do not blindly believe in Moutai, (in 2010) Moutai was already 150 billion, having passed the high growth period." As a result, in March 2021 it was 32.7 trillion, and even now in 2026 it is still 17.5 trillion.[偷笑][偷笑][偷笑]

In this world, apart from psychological failure, there is actually no real failure. If life is frugal and disciplined, it is essentially a form of capital accumulation investment. Like most people, turtles live frugally, but when it comes to the stock market, they go all in, which is a problem that needs to be addressed. However, the best remedy is to never give in, to hold on until the end [偷笑][偷笑][偷笑]

23. When you reach a certain age without stable income or savings, and when relatives encounter problems and you can’t provide money, you will understand that face, affection, and love mean nothing in front of money!

53. A woman taking out a loan to buy a house will find it hard to find a boyfriend to marry; a man taking out a loan to buy a house will find it easy to find a girlfriend to marry.
54. Never mess around; if you make 5,000 a month, that’s 60,000 a year. If you waste your twenties until thirty, in ten years, you’ll have wasted 600,000, with savings likely under 20%. There’s no visible difference between wasting a day and working hard for a day, but after two or three months, you’ll see a difference in aura, and in three to five years, you’ll see a different life path.

The essence of human nature is that the more decisive and self-willed you are, the more people will admire you. The more honest and kind you are, obedient and timid, the more people will bully you.
——Mo Yan

A clean person is not someone who does not eat the food of the world, nor someone who is not stained by the mundane, but rather someone whose soul has a pure land and whose thoughts have a true original intention.
—— Yang Jiang

When boarding a boat, do not think of the people on shore; when disembarking, do not mention matters on the boat. Old friends need not know the current situation, and new friends need not ask about the past. Each has their own pier, each has their own returning boat. A single thought of attachment brings endless suffering, while a single thought of letting go is rebirth. — Li Shutong

The current state of the capital market: "The booming technology and energy sectors" and "the neglected consumer and pharmaceutical sectors." Life is like a play, and one must learn to "step out of character"; otherwise, getting too immersed in the role will ultimately lead to self-destruction.

Appearance comes from the heart. To change the outside, one must change the inside. A dark heart cannot support a bright face. Where there is love, there will be harmony; where there is harmony, there will be joy; where there is joy, there will be grace. A kind-hearted person will certainly have an attractive appearance. As long as the heart is向阳, all darkness will cease to exist. Therefore, we must love ourselves well. Maintaining a calm heart is the best practice.

Loneliness, do you deserve it? Only geniuses and madmen enjoy loneliness; ordinary people are just lonely. The biggest difference between loneliness and solitude is that the heart of a lonely person is full and abundant, while the heart of a lonely person is anxious and restless. A lonely person is not lonely because he wants to be, but because he cannot find his kind around him. — Nietzsche

【Munger Talks About Three Signs of Transitioning from Poverty to Wealth】
1. Independent Thinking, Willingness to Accept Criticism
Munger once said: "If you are unpopular among those around you because of your uniqueness, then let them be!"
In contrast, modern people often focus on fitting in, even at the expense of their own will, just to blend in with others, resulting in various conflicts in what appears to be a harmonious atmosphere. For ourselves, not only do we fail to manage relationships well, but we also end up losing our true selves!
You cannot find two identical leaves in the world, and people are the same. So why should we lose our true selves just to please someone? Independent thinking and the willingness to accept criticism are signs of maturity in adults. Being criticized does not mean you are inadequate, and being unique does not mean you are out of place; therefore, it is almost impossible for someone who wants to stand out among the crowd to do so without an independent personality.
This is considered by Munger to be the first sign that a poor person begins to become wealthy.
2. Courage to Take Responsibility, Acting with Dignity
In "Poor Charlie's Almanack," Munger stated: "The pride of doing a job well is very constructive. It can inspire youthful ambition, and when you look back in old age, you will feel happier!"
However, in reality, we often find some young people who prefer to do simple tasks, preferably ones that do not require much thought. Once they encounter a problem they have not faced before or a challenging issue, they begin to shirk responsibility, even using childish excuses from their past jobs as justification.
When a person lacks a sense of responsibility, they will exhibit a cynical attitude, sometimes becoming servile to mask their incompetence, as if being "sincere" is enough to turn things around. Remember this: it is your own problem; if you do not actively solve it, it will always be a problem!
Taking on your own burdens and acting with dignity is the way for young people to emerge from a state of confusion. In this society, there will always be people who tell you that if you take things seriously, you will lose, but the reality is that "everything is afraid of seriousness!"
This is the second sign of the transition from poverty to wealth!
3. Looking at the World Beyond the Present, Thinking Simply, Doing Seriously
The last sign is also the most important because it involves decision-making methods and ways of thinking.
In the second chapter of "Poor Charlie's Almanack," a whole section is dedicated to explaining this point, proving its importance. First, let’s explain what it means to look at the world beyond the present.
Simply put, it means to view the world with a future perspective. If you don’t understand, you can stand in the present and look back at society five years ago. If you use today’s understanding to do business in the past, can you definitely become wealthy? Because you can see further and clearer than others.
The reason why the wealthy can accumulate vast fortunes is that they possess foresight, stepping out of the present world.
Thinking simply and doing seriously! These six words stump a lot of people. We can reflect on how much of our work has been delayed because we complicated problems instead of simplifying them. I have asked friends and colleagues around me, and almost everyone has had such experiences, some even more than once, and it can be said that it happens repeatedly without knowing how to solve it!
Just like Munger does with investments, he said: "Investment is simple; it is about buying low and selling high to earn the price difference. No matter how complicated a person makes the theory, its underlying logic is this simple!"
What Munger wants to say is that before we do something, we must clarify our purpose, eliminate some variable factors, pinpoint the core content, and then continuously reintroduce the variables. By working within a fixed framework, even if the variables change, the overall direction will not be wrong!
This is the third sign that Munger talks about regarding the transition from poverty to wealth!
