Well, I wish I had someone too. I realized I missed a lot because I didn't have anyone to guide me. Most times this only means that we now have to spend a lot of time for something that's not supposed to take that much time. Imagine if I knew how the market worked in 2021, perhaps I could have been in a comfortable position, but it has taken me an extra 4 years, something I could have learned in 6 months.

I like the figuring it out approach, it's a hands on way to gather experience.

When people are their own teacher, they have no option but to learn better and smarter.
