Times have changed and Warren Buffett's 20% a year isn't that impressive anymore.


Maybe 20% isn’t impressive when you’re trading 100, 1k, or even 10k a pop, but once you start talking large sums (250k and more) it becomes extremely difficult to maintain large returns due to shallow market liquidity. You have to get a lot more imaginative and take longer positions to deploy all of your capital and not get bitten.

Agree 100%...really large portfolios are a totally different animal so I may have understated his accomplishments managing so much money.

I have 250K in individual stocks right now, that ain’t shite.
I buy and hold not trade but still I’m only making 10-15K bets at a time.
of all the ways to make 500 bucks a day I’m thinking trading 250 large at a time is the worst way to do it
