After working in this business for more than 25 years, Timothy says, "There are 10 things I know. The first five are directly about investing, the second five, indirectly."

1. The business of investing can provide great rewards to those who work at it and are willing to learn. Those who refuse to learn will lose money.

2. To succeed as an investor in growth stocks, it’s best to buy when upside potential dwarfs downside potential, to cut losses short, and to let winners run.

3. To succeed as an investor in value stocks, it’s best to buy low and hold patiently, until the stock is fully valued.

4. Your greatest enemies are your own emotions and the blow-dried fellow who reads the evening news with a heartfelt–but undeserved–sense of urgency. Try to ignore them both.

5. For over two centuries, the long trend of the markets has been up, reflecting the growth of asset values, and I recommend that you invest in synch with that trend. Your greatest ally is time.

6. As to the world, globalization is a powerful trend that is positive for the world as a whole. Embrace it, looking forward, not backward.

7. However…consider the idea that the underappreciated risks arising from the increasing inability of fossil fuels to fill growing market demands are greater than the well-publicized risks deriving from global warning. Invest accordingly.

8. And…consider the idea that the longer our elected representatives in Congress sanction the increasing growth of our national debt, the greater the pain when we have to pay that debt, while providing Social Security and Medicare for an exploding population of old folks (myself included). Invest accordingly.

9. In the meantime, keep on learning. Not only will it help you become a better investor, it will keep you young.

10. Finally, have faith in the ability of intelligent, innovative men and women to adapt, as they always have, and to solve the problems of the future in ways that are unimaginable to people of today. Invest in these people when you can.”
