Investment advice for beginners: Don't get scared out of investing in stocks
Some discipline is better than none
Careful with stock tips
Remain dispassionate but diligent

Content: Never, ever buy shares in a company you don’t know or whose product you haven’t used or researched, no matter who told you it was a “sure thing.” You might as well let it all ride on the roulette wheel. Remain dispassionate but diligent
If you are interested in buying great companies on sale, be prepared: Almost anyone will be able to tell you what is wrong with a company when its stock is cheap. Ignore them. If you buy high-quality companies, you can wait for the management team to solve the problems and restore earnings growth. The trick is not to let emotions take over. I hate driving the winding road to Lake Tahoe, but because I like Lake Tahoe, I have learned to remain dispassionate but diligent when I travel those roads – eye on the goal – an excellent strategy for long-term investors. Sooner or later you will get burned in the market, despite your best efforts. Investing is informed decision-making that comes with risk.
