Your annual return in 2020 was 70% while the annual return for the S & P was about 16%. Yeah, that is really believable. You say you don't want to share too much about yourself here. You haven't shared ANYTHING with us except your returns. You haven't shared your name or your investments or anything else. You are sounding a heck of a lot like Flagpole who never told us his investments or even how he calculated his annual returns. Give us 20 of your random investments and we can very easily determine if you actually got a 70% return in 2020.
90% of funds underperformed against the S & P over the last 10 years but you every year beat it by around 8% each and every year and expect to beat it by even more in the coming year.
Oh, beating the S & P by 55% in 2020 ... LOL.
It was about 70%. I could screenshot my performance chart over the past 10 years and blur out the exact numbers etc and post it here, but that's not really the point. I don't blame you for not believing me and am not trying to convince you, though a person would have had to be an absolute mor0n to have not beat the market that year by a significant amount. I have mostly been trying to figure out where I stand relative to others, especially professionals. You basically saying there's no way possible I've done what I have has let me know where I stand, so thanks.
To your other points, for one, I don't owe you anything. Stop throwing a tantrum over this. Why would you think it's remotely likely I would just post all my trades and positions on here? Did Colonel Sanders print his fried chicken recipe on the back of the box? It's proprietary.
I did not beat the market every single year by 8%. I have averaged around that. I don't think I said I beat it every single year by 8%, but if I did, I misspoke.
Anyway, I don't think I'll write any more about myself on here. I enjoy hearing the different viewpoints, and it seems like me sharing some things has derailed the thread some. We're supposed to be talking about the markets, not about whether or not I'm a phony. Whether I am or not shouldn't really affect anyone else here anyway.
Why so secretive? Colonel Sanders had a reason for not revealing his recipe. We have no idea who you are. What are you hiding? We don't care who you are. Throw us some crumbs. List 10 of your in investments. We want to be rich too.
