Diversification is the price of ignorance – Warren Buffet. ​ Well… many recommend diversification, it is simply a protection against their ignorance… but it gives results. ​ Only a fraction of investment funds performs better than the reference index in a year. Only a handful during a constant period of 10 years. ​ ​ Buffett has a different financial strategy. He doesn’t diversify. He is not an average investor. He focuses. He looks for a great business at a great price. He doesn’t buy a lot of businesses and pray one of them does well. He doesn’t want average returns, or to play the stock market. He likes to control the company but not run the company. ​ I try to do the same. ​ I’m not in the game of diversification anymore. But focus and control. Searching. Buying things at good prices.

You know that I read about the subject. Forums, blogs, books, and… from time to time I did it on social media. Yes… it was a time...
When I had no money, I spent my days around people who criticized others. Now that I have a little money, all I hear when someone talks about others is: “I love that guy,” “He’s brilliant,” “What a machine”, “Qué huevos tiene”, etc. Failures focus on hating. Successful people focus on admiring—and finding people worth admiring. Failures assume malice. Successful people assume kindness. Failures obsess over what they don’t like. Successful people are blind to what they don’t like. Failures...
“When you understand that every opinion is a vision loaded with personal history, you will begin to understand that all judgment is a confession.” – Nikola Tesla Note that sentence. Do it by hand. Yes, in a piece of paper. Have it next to your screen, desk, or whatever. Read it every day. and every time a stupid shows you his stupidity through his month.
