The combination of knowledge and achievement is true success. If someone has knowledge but cannot achieve anything through investment, then he has a lack of knowledge. On the other hand, many people have capital but are unable to invest due to lack of knowledge. Investing is a journey, where every profit and loss, every strategy, and every market situation teaches us what to do and what not to do or what to avoid. 90% of people determine the success of an investor by looking at the return on investment, the size of the portfolio, and the financial gain. But I believe that in reality, the success of an investor lies not only in numbers, but also in the knowledge, experience, and decision-making skills he has acquired. Many of us have seen a billionaire recently lose an estimated 40% of his total wealth by investing in NFTs, so we can see that someone can lose it due to mismanagement even if he owns a huge portfolio. On the other hand, someone can build a huge empire from scratch based on experience and foresight. So, we should evaluate not only financial results but also experience, knowledge, and learning mindset in our investment decisions.
