I personally have been an investor for about 45 years or so and have always been successful.

Well, now... that can't be right.

ALWAYS been successful? Each and every investment? Never any disappointments?

You use of the absolute "always" renders your statement false by definition.

Not pimping a blog here, Lardass.;-) So, f*ck off and get a real paying job.

If you were an investor, you would know that being a successful investor doesn't mean you're never disappointed. It means your account is growing according to plan.

I take “always” to mean that, at the Bottom Line, the portfolio has always been in the black; not that every last individual trade was a net gain.

Try to have a modicum of grace, and choose meanings that render people’s statements as true.
