The longer I’m in this business, the more I’m convinced that it’s forgetting the investment basics that ultimately brings down even the biggest and brightest of investors and money managers. It’s almost as if success has gotten to them, and the investment basics they learned as apprentices are no longer stressed. Or maybe they just forgot them, as one forgets to cross with the light or hold the door open for the person behind them even though they’ve known better since being taught those lessons as kids.
