- **學習 · 2026-04-20T14:24:27.000Z**: The smaller the principal, the more concentrated the investment should be.
- **出逃AA园区 · 2026-04-20T09:25:41.000Z · 👍 3**: What you're saying is all hindsight and nonsense.
  - **辰逸** (2026-04-21T06:14:21.000Z): Yes, if I didn't say this, would you know?
  - **出逃AA园区** (2026-04-21T07:46:43.000Z): Hahaha, we really wouldn't have known if you hadn't said it.
- **xiaomayi666 · 2026-04-20T08:44:14.000Z**: The past 15 years are over, the key is which one to buy for the next 15 years.
  - **dzh113** (2026-04-20T10:11:41.000Z): Then you'll have to wait another 15 years before he can tell you. That's how hindsight bias works.
  - **闲庭信步纳斯达** (2026-04-20T11:51:32.000Z): Haha
  - **辰逸** (2026-04-21T06:15:47.000Z): If I told you that if you buy these stocks now, you'll get more returns after 15 years, would you believe it?
