I love this video and needed it since I dont have as much invested in big stocks I follow. I now average in, also 2:07 Tesla moon boy isnt completely wrong here. And hertz is something you should avoid at all costs. Right now btc fomo is at all time high, pardon the pun. I cant say I didnt tell my friends about this years ago though, :(. Then again its not like I would get money in return for telling them lol. But to FOMO into btc right now is a huge risk, tell that to everyone. If you have fortykfree dollars go ahead. But like always, just do research, plan your strategy and be responsible.
I just saw that video. Lynch is not lynch, lynch is LEGEND! Also I love the things he is talking about in this video, but the starting point was a long time ago. Put up partial shares and put your free money into various things, and also invest responsibly. Don't FOMO, its scary, imagine investing in btc right before the crash 2017. buy it at 3k after, or 5k.
One thing that really helped me with FOMO this year is making small bets on some of these crazy stocks. I bough fractional shares in Tesla, only about 0.1 shares, and got to benefit from some of the crazy gains (like $80 total). Even though I didn't see my investments go to the moon, the fact that I got a tiny taste of them helped assuage my anxiety, and made me feel like a winner.
You don't feel bad when you make $80 and realize, "Oh man, if I had just bought 1 share, I would have made $720 more... or if I had bought 10 shares, I would have made $8000!"?
In my opinion, the most difficult part of building wealth is sticking with the right mindset over the long run. And yet it is the thing that people neglect the most, even when they look into the data and research. Great video and super important!
You’re definitely my favorite TH-camr!!! Well researched, level headed, incredibly informative. I’ve listened to very many finance TH-camrs but it’s always your content I look forward to! Thank you for what you do!!!
An individual good decision can lead to a bad outcome. Just like a bad decision can lead to a good outcome. Focus on the decision-making process, not on the outcome of each individual decision.
ah yes I love me a good old same words put into a sentence in different ways. Always sound way better then the actual words are. The art of trying to sound intelligent when you are actually a *FUCKING MORON*
This video is exactly for me. my friends have been suggesting me TSLA when it was only $2xx, ... before the split. Since 2019, it's already 1500% increase or something. in 2020, I panic sold everything and never buy back, my investments were all tech stocks and some bitcoin. Now everything is so high, I really want to jump into a parallel universe that I didn't panic sell. I’m such a FOMO guy now.
I jumped into a lot of Tesla at $400 (using some margin as well), and exited at about $620, as Tesla had well surpassed my expectations, and I wanted the opportunity to diversify better and cut risk. While Tesla seems to keep shooting up, tbh, I’m not really kicking myself. Sure, my stonks aren’t riding the Tesla rocket any longer, but they’re doing very well in their own right, in a manner I believe to be more resilient to severe downturns. Just need to stop caring about how others are doing, and care only about your own plan and goals. The best way to catch a big rise is to get ahead of it, which invariably involves an element of speculation and a lot research. Speculative moves are inherently risky, and should make up only a small portion of your portfolio.
Appreciate you taking the time to make this video. The FOMO is not just real in the current conditions but also intense. Stay safe everyone, not just from the virus, but also from the fear and greed that has followed.
Good content. FOMO is a real problem. With the Gamestop and AMC meme madness a lot, but A LOT of people comes to the markets looking to make "easy" money. FOMO is on a killing spreed. Remember, there's always a new trade coming. Learn a lot and test a lot first
I’m a firm believer in indexing. My friend has no idea what he’s doing. He’s financially illiterate. He heard about crypto, so he put a few grand in it earlier this year. Let’s just say he has beat my returns many times over.
Most of our investments should go to safer things like indexing. But I don’t think it’s a bad thing to use a small amount of cash to momentum invest. It makes investing a lot of fun.
Hey don’t worry bout it too much it’s about the decision making, not just the result and if ur friend keeps making decisions like that he’s eventually gonna lose big so just do what you’ve always believed in and let the rest work itself out
Diversifikation is most important. If you take high risk you should diversify even more. My goal is to have around 100 stocks in my portfolio. It will be like an ETF, but without Zombie companies and hype stocks.
Great video with awesome energy, rythm and the perfect balance of entertaining and informative, awesome job, switching between you and the animations between time and time again feels like a refreshener and keeps it vibrant! And yeah between Tesla and Bitcoin FOMO is truly at an all time high.
Seeing how high some assets have gone up in the last months undoubtably raises some concerns (notably Bitcoin and Tesla). FOMO is definitely real right now.
It sucks to miss opportunities. I missed Google, Microsoft, and got on Amazon and Apple too late to make it big (even though I did OK). But they come along more frequently than you think. I did get on Tesla and cashed 1/3 based on the Plain Bagel warning. I kept enough to win big if Tesla keeps going up but cashed out enough to put into a more stable investment and some into “the next big thing.”

Those are bubbles. Eventually they get too big without any fundamentals to back them. Eventually they get too inflated for anyone to buy, and worse, to encourage sales. Those gains can tumble FAST!
@@RichardServello Well, I'm only about talking finnish stocks here, but usually there is some reason behind the sudden 10% jumps or falls. A news article, profit warnings, some profitable deals etc... It does help a lot to always dig up reasons for those jumps in order to learn how specific stocks behave. I've made a few nice quick trades with knowledge learned from those, avoided few falls. (and admittedly also made mistakes too)
Lol why all in now? Now is the time you want to get out. People dont understand, when its hot thats when you want to be selling it. When no one gives a shit about it, that when you buy it.
Lol. Get in or get out? Markets cant be timed! Stop timing the market. People invest in the companies that you think will be big in 5, 10 or 15 years. If people believe in cryptocurrency, why would they get out now? When bitcoin is no where near where they claim to go in the future. Same with investors in Tesla, why would people take profit when Tesla hasnt even finished a small % of their grand plans?
On the flipside, also important to evaluate when you're going to sell positions that have shot to the moon. I'm slowly trimming my TSLA holding to rebalance my portfolio. FOMO is real for people rushing in but also those who want to sell but don't because they think it'll keep going up. I say take some profit so if bitcoin or Tesla does crash, at least you'll lock in some gains
Accidentally sold a stock I wanted to buy more of. Thought of just going back in when the price was lower, as to recuperate the fees (I live in Europe, we still have those). After the price soared, I ended up giving in to FOMO and bought it anyway. Of course now its price is dropping.
Oh boi I got this exact accident also last year, months before pandemic crash, back then I wasn't experienced enough and got FOMO, and forgot to check if the menu shown to me was for Buy or Sell, and sadly it was Sell while I wanted to Buy more Harsh experience aside, since then I'm always careful and that kind of thing never happen again 👍🏽
It's not really FOMO for me...its the fear of having my portion of net worth deflated. This is just my theory. Inflation is being hidden misguided very well. First of all the lowering quality of all our products is part of inflation since stuff won't last as long and has to be purchased more often or great quantities. This is just one example and many more.
A very important video for all investors and traders - particularly those just starting off! 😄 Many thanks for the post, all the way from Tasmania, Australia 🙌

Good day sir! Been an avid follower since the start of the pandemic. I'm really thankful for investing videos from channels like yours. They keep me grounded and keep my emotions at check when it comes to investing :) I was wondering if you could do a video regarding stock rights offerings and stock dilution as a result of it. I'm not sure if it's a way of taking advantage of FOMO or it's just a really good deal when the company is offering stock at a discount. Anyways, really appreciate your videos. Keep up the good work! :)
A couple life rules: If you're sick, don't go to WebMD, go to a doctor. If you're worried about finances, don't go to TH-cam, go to a financial advisor. If you're not the type of person with the correct temperament to invest... don't. Your arm hurts, fine. It's probably not cancer. You missed some money on a trade, whatever. It's almost certainly not a good investment.
Losses are a lot worse than missing out on gains in my experience. I made money on GME but lost a lot of unrealized gains as well. If I had broke even after all those green days I would have been devastated.
Can you please start a series of how to spot bargain stocks (UNDER VALUED stocks) or guide to some resources where I can put in research and spot good stock picks
I think one of the most important things to remember is that success in markets is not necessarily tied to the wisdom of the investment strategy. Tied with survivorship bias, and you'll wind up with "experts" who have no idea what's going on. I think Ben Graham said it best in this excerpt: "I would like you to imagine a national coin-flipping contest. Let’s assume we get 225 million Americans up tomorrow morning and we ask them all to wager a dollar. They go out in the morning at sunrise, and they all call the flip of a coin. If they call correctly, they win a dollar from those who called wrong. Each day the losers drop out, and on the subsequent day the stakes build as all previous winnings are put on the line. After ten flips on ten mornings, there will be approximately 220,000 people in the United States who have correctly called ten flips in a row. They each will have won a little over $1,000. Now this group will probably start getting a little puffed up about this, human nature being what it is. They may try to be modest, but at cocktail parties they will occasionally admit to attractive members of the opposite sex what their technique is, and what marvelous insights they bring to the field of flipping. Assuming that the winners are getting the appropriate rewards from the losers, in another ten days we will have 215 people who have successfully called their coin flips 20 times in a row and who, by this exercise, each have turned one dollar into a little over $1 million. $225 million would have been lost, $225 million would have been won. By then, this group will really lose their heads. They will probably write books on “How I Turned a Dollar into a Million in Twenty Days Working Thirty Seconds a Morning.” Worse yet, they’ll probably start jetting around the country attending seminars on efficient coin-flipping and tackling skeptical professors with, “If it can’t be done, why are there 215 of us?” "
The issue with this analogy is that it implies every investor that has made a million+ has done so solely by guessing with no research and that every pick had 50% odds of exactly doubling their money and that they did this 20 times in a row. Whereas that's not what happens. And if something like that did occur the book would be pretty short of how best to flip a coin. I will say though that even if a person correctly guessed a coin flip 20 times in a row that would be pretty impressive.
The fear of missing out trap usually exists when you’re in a bubble.. The sub-prime mortgage issue before 2007 in the United States and Europe, housing in the last 10 years in Australia, bitcoin, Tesla. Part of human psychology is to think that whatever is happening will continue to happen, it’s behavioural economics. Everyone thought they were buying a house in 2004, that it was going to be some great asset, that it was going to go up in price and only go up in price, that it was making them rich, what did it do? It just made the house they would buy next more expensive, meaning that their dollar didn’t go as far, and sacrificed a generation of families to poverty which on top of being economically damaging, has radicalised large amount of the population in various different ways which won’t go away any time soon. Bubbles are a 0 sum game, potential money to be made creates so much risk that the downsides are so much worse than under normal circumstances. You didn’t lose money if you didn’t buy bitcoin when it was at $2000 a pop and now it’s at $60,000 Australian. Because you only spent $2000. People who win are convinced something is a sure thing because their ego tells them that they are smart and they alone knew better than everybody else, when the truth is they had no fucking idea either, their ego just can’t let them think that way so it convinces everybody else around them that they won because they bought a ticket, when plenty of other people lost that you’ve never heard of. How many gamblers in a casino I convinced, if I only I slapped the button again and win then it proves that the right thing to do is for me to stay. When they have no fucking clue for the next one is a winner or loser. They will dismiss the loss, and continue until they find another winner to reinforce the idea that it was right for them to stay
@@juliogarcia9738 similar to me. There’s way more nuisance here than people are giving credit for. But same as satoshi, I don’t have the time to convince everyone.
I had the complete opposite work for me. When the market crashed last year just after I invested everything I saved up a lot of people called me dumb. I held on to my plan and have a steady return right now.
Happy New Year Richard! Here’s a video request: You mentioned an approach of investing (E.g. momentum investing), what are your opinions on following an approach strictly (for the purposes of not being distracted or diluting one’s focus), relative to a more pick and choose mixed approach (trying to combine different strategies, to “diversify” so to speak)? Is this something to be aware of and stick to from the get go? Something that ebbs and flows over time as one shapes his/her portfolio? Thank you! Looking forward to learning more on TPB in this new year! PS The active vs passive skit still brings me a chuckle 😂🔥🔥🔥
This was excellent coverage. Points 3. and 4. are big and expandable. But conversely then if late comer anxiety is an issue then can we discuss the Short Position? As in ... TESLA? NIO? In particular China book Keeping is suspect so Luckin Coffee for example should have made people rich. You might also discuss Trader vs. Investor because those of us who have retired and hoping to increase the Nest Egg think Trading is prudent?

One thing that really helped me with FOMO this year is making small bets on some of these crazy stocks. I bough fractional shares in Tesla, only about 0.1 shares, and got to benefit from some of the crazy gains (like $80 total). Even though I didn't see my investments go to the moon, the fact that I got a tiny taste of them helped assuage my anxiety, and made me feel like a winner.

Of course now its price is dropping.
How do you "accidentally" sell a stock ?
@@perotal On the service I use the default setting is on "sell" when you want to give a new order for a position you already have stocks in.
Oh boi I got this exact accident also last year, months before pandemic crash, back then I wasn't experienced enough and got FOMO, and forgot to check if the menu shown to me was for Buy or Sell, and sadly it was Sell while I wanted to Buy more
Harsh experience aside, since then I'm always careful and that kind of thing never happen again 👍🏽
@@Larry82ch that stinks but if you think the stock has value I'd just hold it long term until it went up. That doesn't mean to add more to it though.
The new, colorful background is really nice
haha i love it
releases video: "Why i think tesla is over valued"
Next video:"How to deal with investment FOMO"
is this new video for you or us ? LOL
lol
Lol
The best content is in the comments
To be fair it probably is. I have a high conviction that there will be a better time to buy then now.
Next will be "How to deal with regret and anxiety "
It's not really FOMO for me...its the fear of having my portion of net worth deflated. This is just my theory. Inflation is being hidden misguided very well. First of all the lowering quality of all our products is part of inflation since stuff won't last as long and has to be purchased more often or great quantities. This is just one example and many more.
A very important video for all investors and traders - particularly those just starting off! 😄
Many thanks for the post, all the way from Tasmania, Australia 🙌
I wasn't super convinced on this video until I saw the picture of you in front of that car.
10/10 selling point and now I'm putting my life savings in Plain Bagel.
Appreciate the effort and talent you put into this channel. Excellent timing for this video. Thanks, PB
You sir have an amazing channel, thank you.
It's the reason I watch almost of your video. I strongly agree with your rational opinion. Market these day is full of greedy people.
As someone whos already in Cryptocurrency, Tesla, and plenty of smaller cap Tech stocks.
One word DCA. Open a position and split up your investment in dollar cost average. Noones telling you do 'all in' at all time highs.
Regret sucks, but losing big sucks more.
Excellent video. I agree that FOMO is dangerous and easy to fall for. Thanks for the advice. 😃
Thanks, I needed this. I held Buttcoin for about a year and made about 80% profit, but I sold it when the valuation was at $17k.
Warren Buffet once said: "Wall Street is the only place that people ride to in a Rolls Royce to get advise from those who take the subway."
It seems investing has so much of numbers and narrative analysis, as psychology and emotional control. Good work 👍
Great content as always... we love you bagel!! Keep the great job educating everyone
Higher the top, further the drop!

That hit me personally...
*_I almost bought Tesla in 2019 but put it off_*
Good day sir! Been an avid follower since the start of the pandemic. I'm really thankful for investing videos from channels like yours. They keep me grounded and keep my emotions at check when it comes to investing :)
I was wondering if you could do a video regarding stock rights offerings and stock dilution as a result of it. I'm not sure if it's a way of taking advantage of FOMO or it's just a really good deal when the company is offering stock at a discount.
Anyways, really appreciate your videos. Keep up the good work! :)
A couple life rules:
If you're sick, don't go to WebMD, go to a doctor.
If you're worried about finances, don't go to TH-cam, go to a financial advisor.
If you're not the type of person with the correct temperament to invest... don't. Your arm hurts, fine. It's probably not cancer. You missed some money on a trade, whatever. It's almost certainly not a good investment.
thank you for your videos, very educational and informative.
Subbed for the MGS alert sound you put in. Good stuff
Losses are a lot worse than missing out on gains in my experience. I made money on GME but lost a lot of unrealized gains as well. If I had broke even after all those green days I would have been devastated.
These are some really important topics mentioned. Thanks for the content!
Thanks for the great information. Wow. I have been thinking lot about this doge coin and check my coinbase account tireless. It is a mental game
Can you please start a series of how to spot bargain stocks (UNDER VALUED stocks) or guide to some resources where I can put in research and spot good stock picks
Love your pic and green auto! I wish the plain bagel ticker was paying a higher yield! Love this video.
I think one of the most important things to remember is that success in markets is not necessarily tied to the wisdom of the investment strategy. Tied with survivorship bias, and you'll wind up with "experts" who have no idea what's going on. I think Ben Graham said it best in this excerpt:
"I would like you to imagine a
national coin-flipping contest. Let’s assume we get 225 million
Americans up tomorrow morning and we ask them all to wager a
dollar. They go out in the morning at sunrise, and they all call the
flip of a coin. If they call correctly, they win a dollar from those who
called wrong. Each day the losers drop out, and on the subsequent
day the stakes build as all previous winnings are put on the line.
After ten flips on ten mornings, there will be approximately
220,000 people in the United States who have correctly called ten
flips in a row. They each will have won a little over $1,000.
Now this group will probably start getting a little puffed up
about this, human nature being what it is. They may try to be modest, but at cocktail parties they will occasionally admit to attractive
members of the opposite sex what their technique is, and what
marvelous insights they bring to the field of flipping.
Assuming that the winners are getting the appropriate rewards
from the losers, in another ten days we will have 215 people who
have successfully called their coin flips 20 times in a row and who,
by this exercise, each have turned one dollar into a little over
$1 million. $225 million would have been lost, $225 million would
have been won.
By then, this group will really lose their heads. They will probably write books on “How I Turned a Dollar into a Million in
Twenty Days Working Thirty Seconds a Morning.” Worse yet,
they’ll probably start jetting around the country attending seminars on efficient coin-flipping and tackling skeptical professors
with, “If it can’t be done, why are there 215 of us?”
"
The issue with this analogy is that it implies every investor that has made a million+ has done so solely by guessing with no research and that every pick had 50% odds of exactly doubling their money and that they did this 20 times in a row. Whereas that's not what happens. And if something like that did occur the book would be pretty short of how best to flip a coin.
I will say though that even if a person correctly guessed a coin flip 20 times in a row that would be pretty impressive.
Sober check 💯. Good points! Thank you for this. Love the channel. Rational investing 😊
that intro was great!
Peter Lynch: I’ve never lost money on a stock I didn’t buy.
Thanks man - it’s a hard lesson, and can be learnt multiple times.
The fear of missing out trap usually exists when you’re in a bubble.. The sub-prime mortgage issue before 2007 in the United States and Europe, housing in the last 10 years in Australia, bitcoin, Tesla. Part of human psychology is to think that whatever is happening will continue to happen, it’s behavioural economics. Everyone thought they were buying a house in 2004, that it was going to be some great asset, that it was going to go up in price and only go up in price, that it was making them rich, what did it do? It just made the house they would buy next more expensive, meaning that their dollar didn’t go as far, and sacrificed a generation of families to poverty which on top of being economically damaging, has radicalised large amount of the population in various different ways which won’t go away any time soon. Bubbles are a 0 sum game, potential money to be made creates so much risk that the downsides are so much worse than under normal circumstances. You didn’t lose money if you didn’t buy bitcoin when it was at $2000 a pop and now it’s at $60,000 Australian. Because you only spent $2000. People who win are convinced something is a sure thing because their ego tells them that they are smart and they alone knew better than everybody else, when the truth is they had no fucking idea either, their ego just can’t let them think that way so it convinces everybody else around them that they won because they bought a ticket, when plenty of other people lost that you’ve never heard of. How many gamblers in a casino I convinced, if I only I slapped the button again and win then it proves that the right thing to do is for me to stay. When they have no fucking clue for the next one is a winner or loser. They will dismiss the loss, and continue until they find another winner to reinforce the idea that it was right for them to stay
As someone who holds Tesla stocks and cryptocurrency, I must say "oh crap"
My portfolio is exclusively TSLA and BTC
@@juliogarcia9738 similar to me. There’s way more nuisance here than people are giving credit for. But same as satoshi, I don’t have the time to convince everyone.
I had the complete opposite work for me. When the market crashed last year just after I invested everything I saved up a lot of people called me dumb. I held on to my plan and have a steady return right now.
Very useful content thank you
Thank you for the video. You have put on words some of my frequent feelings.
This video came at a good time. Why wife was just guilt tripping me today on why I didn't buy Tesla when the stock split last year.
Happy New Year Richard! Here’s a video request: You mentioned an approach of investing (E.g. momentum investing), what are your opinions on following an approach strictly (for the purposes of not being distracted or diluting one’s focus), relative to a more pick and choose mixed approach (trying to combine different strategies, to “diversify” so to speak)?
Is this something to be aware of and stick to from the get go? Something that ebbs and flows over time as one shapes his/her portfolio?
Thank you! Looking forward to learning more on TPB in this new year!
PS The active vs passive skit still brings me a chuckle 😂🔥🔥🔥
Great level headed channel
Some Spicy Intro's. Loving the content keep it up. Would love to see some on your Industry or Profession specifically !

"Others having fun without you"
Haha, jokes on you! I have no others to miss!
*Sadness intensifies*
😁......😬
This was excellent coverage. Points 3. and 4. are big and expandable. But conversely then if late comer anxiety is an issue then can we discuss the Short Position? As in ... TESLA? NIO? In particular China book Keeping is suspect so
Luckin Coffee for example should have made people rich. You might also discuss Trader vs. Investor because those of us who have retired and hoping to increase the Nest Egg think Trading is prudent?
1:04 me trying not to join my team for a bad fight in league of legends, which will just feed the enemy and make them stronger
(7:59 the sober check for credentials, fundamentals/diligence, risk tolerance, and time-tested - all great things to keep in mind!)
Glad I bought Siacoin. No FOMO for me for the year
