A short YouTube video (shorts) in which the speaker warns against investing money needed in the short term and emphasizes the emotional difficulty of true long-term investing. Using the example of holding Apple stock since 1986, the speaker argues most people lack the "investor DNA" required to endure the ups, downs, and emotional rollercoaster of multidecade holdings.
If you're using money that you need in the short term and you're playing a long game with it, it's a recipe for disaster. It is. If you ever see these memes. Like, dude, if you buy Apple stock in 1986, what they forget to tell you is all the ups and downs and sideways, the emotional roller code, everything else that happens in there, no one fucking held on that unless you were, like, landlocked. Like, you sign documents, you can't sell this. That's the only way you're gonna keep it. I don't think most people have an investor DNA.
