Chapter 55 [Investment Philosophy] - Investment Belief

The same goes for investing and life! It’s about practice and faith! [Know], [Understand] It’s not difficult! But to the point of [believing] it’s a little hard. Sometimes I think I already [know] and [believe], but execution and knowing and believing are two different things. When it is impossible to execute according to what you know, it should still be "I don't know" or "I don't understand". Why do all religions have places like temples or churches that believers must visit at regular or irregular intervals? Christian, go every week.

[James Origin and Today] Chapter 55 - [Investment Philosophy] - Investment Belief (08/11/2023)

The same goes for investing and life! It’s about practice and faith!

[Know], [Understand] It’s not difficult! But to the point of [believing] it’s a little hard.

Sometimes I think I already [know] and [believe], but execution and knowing and believing are two different things.

When it is impossible to execute according to what you know, it should still be "I don't know" or "I don't understand".

Why do all religions have places like temples or churches that believers must visit at regular or irregular intervals?

Christian, go every week.

Go there on the first or fifteenth day of the Buddhist lunar month, or worship at a temple.

These are all difficulties and incoordination between belief and execution in life. Knowing and believing are one thing, but when you return to ordinary life, you will be confused again, and you have to go back to the temple or church.

The same is true for investment. The truth is very simple, and believing to the point of belief is a kind of practice.

Therefore, we mentioned the eight major classes of investment in class.

  1. Hear

  2. Know

  3. Understand

  4. Believe

  5. Execution

  6. Firm belief

  7. Patience

  8. Faith

From the first to the third level [hearing, knowing, and understanding], they are all stages of learning.

The fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh levels [believe, implement, firmly believe, and endure] are the stages of execution, where learning to know and action will be consistent. But [Easier said than done]

The sixth and seventh levels [Faith and Patience] are already very good, but they still cannot see through the world and understand the natural inaction of the stock market. Therefore, any changes in the market will cause investors more or less pain, so they are still patient. It’s a kind of practice!

Only when you reach the eighth level of faith can you truly reach the state of formlessness. When you reach this level, the market disappears, opinions disappear, and market changes no longer exist. If you see through everything, everything ceases to exist. There is no pain and no need to endure. In this state, everything becomes natural.

【make money! That is of course an easy thing].

Chapter 14 [2008 Subprime Crisis]

One day in 2006, I went to a Chinese medicine doctor for acupuncture. She told me that she was going to Texas to buy a house, and she was going to Arizona to look at houses, because there was a house-buying flight group going there, and a group of people were going to buy a house. Then she canceled an appointment for me, saying that I was going to join the house-viewing flight group. I said you don't want to go, you should help me with acupuncture and not make random investments. Later, she still canceled my outpatient appointment and went to join the so-called house-buying flight group. This is also a sign of the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States. 2008
