Focus on Your Savings Rate, Not Your Investment Returns
<p>In most areas of life, hard work pays off.</p>

<p>The harder you try to be a “good investor” and work hard at managing your portfolio, the worse your returns will likely be.</p>
<p>This lesson is one of the most difficult for investors to learn. Even (mostly) rational buy-and-hold index investors can get into trouble when they try and time the market or begin dabbling in picking individual stocks they think will outperform.</p>
