Hey,
in the current times of turmoil I sometimes look back at ten year charts and think to myself: Goddamn I'd be so fucking rich if I had started investing 10 years ago. Given the current state of the world, I'd not be sure we see those gains ever again.
Some of todays industry trends were visible back then, like E-Commerce, electric payments, clean energy or semiconductors. Many companies out of those sectors that were around back then and are around today, multiplied it's value by at least 10x. Even broad investing into indexes would have made you 3 to 6 times richer.
So if you were invested during this golden decade, what made you rich? Or even more interesting: Why didn't you get rich? Which opportunities did you miss? Which bets turned out for the worse?
