    Tend to agree with this. As someone who invest monthly in etfs and mutual funds and never sells, I am curious how some of you guys that buy/sell individual stocks have fared over the past 15 years? I don't follow it close enough to make good decisions, I think I would suck at it.

    For the vast majority buying a market ETF like the SPY is the best option and would have outperformed. But there are those who bought just TSLA, AAPL,NFLX and Bitcoin and are laughing all the way to the bank
