“The long run is just a collection of short runs you have to put up with. Saying you have a ten year time horizon doesn’t exempt you from al the non-sense that happens in the next ten years. Everyone has to experience the recessions, the bear markets, the meltdowns, the surprises and the memes. So rather than assume long term thinkers don’t have to deal with short-notice nonsense, ask the question: how can I endure a never-ending parade of nonsense?”
