00:00:00
hi I'm vertical even Cal and these are
00:00:02
15 of the most common in mr. mistakes
00:00:06
that I have observed I have been talking
00:00:10
about personal finance on stage for the
00:00:12
last five years I just realized it and I
00:00:14
thought I'll compile a list of some of
00:00:18
the most common mistakes that I notice
00:00:21
of course I'm not a big fan of
00:00:24
behavioral finance per se because I tend
00:00:27
to have a view that Who am I to talk
00:00:30
about other people's money management
00:00:32
Who am I to say XO why trade is a
00:00:38
mistake but I also believe that those
00:00:42
who talk about behavioral finance also
00:00:44
have behavioral drains which have to be
00:00:47
decisive about but still some I mean
00:00:52
there are some attitude some notions
00:00:55
some Beebe's which in my opinion are not
00:00:59
productive and it is in that sense I
00:01:04
think of them as a mistake you can argue
00:01:08
that it's what I think is wrong of
00:01:12
course but in in some of these instances
00:01:14
I have shown with data that the believes
00:01:18
are wrong and I will try to include the
00:01:20
proof in the what they call the I button
00:01:23
yeah so there every can
00:01:26
so let's get started so the first I mean
00:01:29
I'm not average them I mean I'm not
00:01:31
numbers are not not linked them in any
00:01:35
order I just thought about it and just
00:01:36
put in door slides so the first idea
00:01:41
that many vistas have they have a rough
00:01:44
idea of averaging that is they they buy
00:01:47
more of the same thing that assume it's
00:01:48
better they buy three large large cap
00:01:51
fund three multi-cat funds and they'll
00:01:53
have they'll buy 50/50 then one mighty
00:01:56
cap then one by aggressive balance to
00:01:58
they're essentially buying more of the
00:02:00
same thing and they think it's averaging
00:02:02
and it will it will reduce risk our
00:02:04
product on downsides not if you buy
00:02:07
not the same thing it'll never help you
00:02:09
in this quarter you have to buy
00:02:13
averaging or diversification you should
00:02:15
buy apples oranges and tomatoes if you
00:02:21
keep buying more and more awareness of
00:02:22
different types of oranges you will just
00:02:24
end up getting you know pretty much
00:02:27
similar results to having just one of
00:02:30
them so that's one common mistake I see
00:02:32
they in the name of diversification and
00:02:35
asset allocation they just buy more of
00:02:37
the same thing and that's from Petey
00:02:42
waiting for a suitable time to invest
00:02:44
this waiting waiting for a suitable time
00:02:47
to invest is okay but the problem is
00:02:49
that many people don't have a method
00:02:51
they just ask people can I use now
00:02:53
should I wait for the market to kudo the
00:02:55
market is at an all-time high
00:02:57
I just talked about two to three days
00:02:58
ago absolutely wait until Direction's
00:03:00
are worth why why should you wait what
00:03:02
logic is that the day after you invested
00:03:05
the market crashes what we do
00:03:06
this is absolutely no logic is there are
00:03:10
people who are methods they will they
00:03:12
will have friends they will look at the
00:03:14
nifty PE they for wait for it to reach a
00:03:17
certain level before they put in money
00:03:18
or give you money they will have
00:03:20
indicators like 200-day moving averages
00:03:23
or whatever double moving averages
00:03:24
whatever it is I have a valuation for me
00:03:27
you can have it so people want a method
00:03:30
and will not ask but and they're not
00:03:32
going to do it but of course you should
00:03:36
people if you also be if you also like
00:03:38
those techniques if you stick to one of
00:03:40
those methods otherwise to be a oh just
00:03:44
wait for a suitable time you must either
00:03:46
you have a method to manage risk or you
00:03:50
keep on just keep investing
00:03:53
systematically and do systematic risk
00:03:56
management don't wait for the rate for a
00:04:01
suitable time to invest I have showed
00:04:02
you also I've shown in another video
00:04:04
that are investing on dips alone will
00:04:07
not like it so I mean this has no use
00:04:14
that's made in that sense
00:04:18
expecting a return for market limits
00:04:20
rheumatism is a dramatic statement to
00:04:24
make but this is wrong
00:04:25
unfortunately this is true I mean you
00:04:27
can't say I'm expecting 15 percent
00:04:29
return from Sensex for next 20 years or
00:04:32
reapers return from Indian stock markets
00:04:35
overall and so on are from this mutual
00:04:37
fund off from that region that doesn't
00:04:39
work because the range of returns the
00:04:42
the possible sprinting returns over 10
00:04:45
years 15 years 20 years of the stock
00:04:47
market is very very huge the only reason
00:04:50
why you do not see such a range in the
00:04:52
Indian stock market is because of less
00:04:54
data I have just purchased sama S&P 500
00:04:59
did they tie yesterday and I from 1927
00:05:02
onwards and I have the Rolly returns
00:05:04
data I'll show you
00:05:05
30 years data I will still to actuate a
00:05:07
lot and you do not beat inflation on so
00:05:09
don't make such assumptions it's wrong
00:05:12
and expect 10 percent 20 percent you
00:05:15
will not get it the what is the
00:05:18
alternative then the alternative is to
00:05:20
not focus on returns is to focus on your
00:05:23
corpus what is the carpus I need for my
00:05:25
goal and keep an eye on that I've been
00:05:29
telling this again and again in addition
00:05:31
to rebalancing every year and so on or
00:05:34
whether you want to tactical in addition
00:05:35
to it whatever it is keep an eye on that
00:05:38
corpus because that is your goal you are
00:05:40
good you cannot eat with returns you
00:05:42
need money to eat all you need money to
00:05:44
send your kids to college you cannot
00:05:46
send your kids to college with returns
00:05:48
right so keep an eye on that gradually
00:05:53
push money to save for assets and you
00:05:56
don't worry about anything else on the
00:05:58
paper it talks push it to say for assets
00:06:00
then you will be then you can face any
00:06:02
crisis I told you in my audits that what
00:06:05
I have done is that I not have enough
00:06:07
money my kid is only nine years old but
00:06:08
I have enough money to send him to UT
00:06:10
degree now so I can handle a market
00:06:14
crash today which I was still not my
00:06:16
goal will not be affected of course I
00:06:17
need be emotionally affected all that
00:06:19
will happen but my goal will haunt you
00:06:21
so that is the way to manage this son
00:06:24
that is what you should do do not expect
00:06:25
the returns from investments marketing
00:06:29
that you can really expect
00:06:31
it's overconfidence based on past data
00:06:36
people say a stock market Indian stock
00:06:38
market has always given 15% always given
00:06:41
10% this you know itself this is wrong
00:06:44
if you actually look at rolling Ritter
00:06:45
this is not true and I have seen people
00:06:47
and awesome ideas of wealth Facebook
00:06:48
group say last three years ago liquid
00:06:51
parts of get 9% returns it's justice
00:06:53
that's because it was sort of even that
00:06:56
occurred that gave you that that doesn't
00:06:58
mean when you started missing you will
00:07:00
get 90% returns in Utah have you got 90%
00:07:02
returns in the last three years in
00:07:03
liquid funds no the same people who
00:07:05
claim that I'm not guarded
00:07:06
this is stupidity just look at last few
00:07:09
years later and say recency bias right
00:07:11
that's completely wrong don't do that
00:07:14
oh my god this is so annoying feeling
00:07:19
that mean to know more about every new
00:07:22
product I my inbox is filled with means
00:07:25
have you this nfo have you seen this in
00:07:29
what for okay though I benefit from
00:07:33
reviewing every enough oh because people
00:07:35
will read it people will view it I will
00:07:37
get my money out of it that's the only
00:07:40
use what is the use for you most of the
00:07:43
people who are interested in levels will
00:07:44
probably not even vest in it or they
00:07:46
leave a small amount doing it for more
00:07:49
what use is it for don't waste your time
00:07:53
learning about every new product in town
00:07:56
small K is alpha I say P Vita I said we
00:07:59
look the I mean the guys who talk about
00:08:02
these are played basically sales guys we
00:08:04
Dana cannot be strictly sales guys they
00:08:06
may be they are part of the company so
00:08:08
there they obviously have a conflict of
00:08:09
interest and then we'll paint people
00:08:11
rosy picture either you should know how
00:08:14
to you should spend your time and
00:08:16
analyze the data otherwise don't bother
00:08:18
you're not going to miss out everything
00:08:19
will just be about not knowing you're
00:08:21
wasting your time go get yourself a new
00:08:23
hobby it's a complete waste of my
00:08:25
suppose that's what is keeping people
00:08:28
like me I like appealing after open the
00:08:30
blogging business I have to write
00:08:32
something the Center for that can fo be
00:08:38
suffering from small exposure syndrome I
00:08:40
have separate video for this this is
00:08:43
not focusing on the big picture and
00:08:46
saying you get 50,000 packs saving
00:08:49
advantage from NTS why would one every
00:08:51
years because the truth is are you
00:08:53
actually investing you probably need to
00:08:55
invest three or four and more than that
00:08:58
for your retirement are you actually
00:09:00
investing that way if that is right then
00:09:02
you not worry about these 50,000 tax
00:09:03
changes psychological lineal benefits
00:09:07
Lou and having say I will have small
00:09:09
exposure of international stocks I will
00:09:11
have small explosion I see series coming
00:09:13
with a new mmmm sick fun I will have fun
00:09:15
I will take 5% exposure to it I will
00:09:17
take 5% exposure to use t next 50
00:09:19
because everybody is talking about it
00:09:21
this is this stupidity will not thank
00:09:23
you sorry
00:09:25
it's unproductive it not make any
00:09:28
difference now judging mistake whoops so
00:09:38
not having yardsticks from judging big
00:09:42
or small what is what is the how you
00:09:44
determine what what is with respect to
00:09:47
what and what is a lump sum with respect
00:09:51
to what I mean have suffer if I have 100
00:09:55
lakhs in the market if I am they receive
00:09:58
5 lakhs that's not a lump sum for me I
00:10:00
just put it in the market that's it
00:10:02
that's not a lump sum phone if my salary
00:10:04
is 3 lakhs a month under this a 1 life
00:10:07
that's not a so middle and I will be
00:10:11
interesting I hope I am investing 1 and
00:10:12
half lakhs among the blacks every month
00:10:17
so you should have a yardstick for
00:10:20
everything before you judge there's
00:10:23
nothing big or small as absolute
00:10:25
big with respect to what small with
00:10:27
respect to what that with respect to
00:10:29
what is missing in the case of most
00:10:31
investors they don't have a yardstick at
00:10:33
all you should have a yardstick for
00:10:35
returns you should have a yardstick for
00:10:37
risk for example somebody told me I was
00:10:43
a commenter and it seemed that article
00:10:44
do there's a value research have have
00:10:46
shown that all mutual fund SATs 7 years
00:10:50
and above have never given negative
00:10:52
returns so if I
00:10:54
in us in a mutual fund s IP for seven
00:10:56
years I invested it for 17 years and I
00:10:58
find that my return is 2% I will be
00:11:00
happy I have taken so much risk to my
00:11:03
university in an equal TSI be fine for
00:11:05
equity say and I get a return of just
00:11:07
one or two percent that's not negative
00:11:09
so it that that doesn't mean I've not
00:11:11
made a loss of course I've made a loss
00:11:13
because the real return is it over the
00:11:15
inflation is so much higher so please
00:11:17
have the yardstick for judging big small
00:11:20
good bad or giving whatever it is so
00:11:23
other unless you have the yardstick you
00:11:25
cannot make judgments this is a big one
00:11:29
people ask you oh I have to talk my
00:11:33
investments I have to consolidate all my
00:11:36
investments
00:11:36
I want a portal where I can consolidate
00:11:38
everything oh god six
00:11:41
leave your money alone wanna know who is
00:11:47
the biggest enemy for your money who is
00:11:50
stopping you from becoming rich go look
00:11:53
in the mirror it's you stop looking at
00:11:56
your investments look at your
00:11:58
investments one is a year you don't need
00:12:01
a nap for all that you don't even need
00:12:04
an excel sheet
00:12:05
you should wad I would suggest you
00:12:07
create an excel sheet let's say every
00:12:10
December or every let's say June
00:12:12
whatever it is after year you all look
00:12:15
at it review it takes will she do it
00:12:18
again next your money maybe say if you
00:12:22
will be fine don't track your
00:12:23
investments watched kittens don't boy
00:12:26
you just keep worrying about
00:12:28
advertisements and do something wrong
00:12:29
don't don't just don't
00:12:32
it is completely unproductive some
00:12:35
people say I watch every day but I don't
00:12:38
do anything why are you watching them go
00:12:41
get a life man Oh
00:12:45
assuming information is power
00:12:47
I've talked about information try it
00:12:49
again and again and again stop thinking
00:12:53
that you have to knowable what that guy
00:12:55
has written what this guy has written
00:12:57
what what they are saying about this
00:13:00
product that product no information is
00:13:02
not power information is confusion
00:13:04
information decision stay
00:13:07
knowledge is power and knowledge is lack
00:13:12
of information
00:13:13
don't-don't-don't I have told it I've
00:13:17
said this many times or in the video as
00:13:18
well and say it again stop watching my
00:13:20
channel if your money or management is
00:13:22
in place so other URL to share the
00:13:26
videos to your friends who who you think
00:13:28
need some help you graduate more way no
00:13:34
point
00:13:34
watching I'm saying the same garbage
00:13:37
again and again ray have you not noticed
00:13:39
if you have not noticed a pattern in
00:13:42
what I am saying if you think you have
00:13:45
learned from my channel or if you think
00:13:48
what I'm turning out every day is useful
00:13:54
then you must notice a pattern in my
00:13:55
savings you if you do not notice a
00:13:57
pattern and something is wrong
00:13:59
stop stop watching if you have noticed a
00:14:02
pattern stop watch then also stopped
00:14:04
watching because you are you have an
00:14:06
inert I am no longer useful that's the
00:14:08
point get that pattern once you get the
00:14:10
pattern or do something else don't think
00:14:13
about money and this is a common mistake
00:14:16
assuming more risk is more returns are
00:14:18
you I am yeah I will I will invest in
00:14:21
small caps more of sno-caps more of
00:14:24
Metcalf's
00:14:24
I don't want large caps large gaps I
00:14:26
will new to large caps manage become 30
00:14:28
or 40 years old years worldwide this is
00:14:31
just garbage this is absolutely wrong
00:14:34
I've shown this is not true it doesn't
00:14:37
work you must have but diversify what
00:14:40
for you with proper risk management at
00:14:44
all times whatever your age and most
00:14:47
people don't know and another mistake
00:14:49
which is very rigid to do this I have
00:14:51
not actually written it down explicitly
00:14:52
is I have largely skeptical you don't
00:14:56
know anything about your cabinet unless
00:14:58
and until your software crash most
00:15:00
people who are if you are investing in
00:15:02
the capital markets today I have not
00:15:04
seen anything any big losses and some
00:15:08
people say
00:15:10
equity market will be volatile in the
00:15:12
short term only you got long term things
00:15:15
will be okay how is it possible the
00:15:18
short term losses or gains concatenate
00:15:21
create the loss of the game everything
00:15:24
matters sequence of returns matter if
00:15:26
you do not understand sequence of return
00:15:28
you will never manage the risk I have a
00:15:31
video on that maybe a couple of videos
00:15:32
and that means because this is an
00:15:35
extremely important animal returns how
00:15:41
these annual returns stack up they
00:15:43
determine what happens to your final
00:15:46
results and this is another problem
00:15:50
locking up money is good to waste if you
00:15:53
can spend knocking is good NPS locking
00:15:56
is good VP of lock-in is good doesn't
00:15:58
have much of a lot people a relatively
00:16:01
heal this was knocking is good Ives
00:16:03
I heard all sort of nonsense this is not
00:16:06
a liquidity when you what are the
00:16:09
aspects of an investment that will take
00:16:11
care of four of them risk return
00:16:15
liquidity taxation and expenses these
00:16:19
are the four pillars of an impersonal
00:16:21
they have to be favorable in certain
00:16:27
cases yes a locking is inevitable
00:16:30
unavoidable mandatory then you work the
00:16:33
homes and make sure you have enough
00:16:35
money elsewhere so you make up for it
00:16:37
that's okay but these are the four
00:16:39
pillars of investor you have to consider
00:16:43
all of them at least be aware of them
00:16:45
and take action corrective action
00:16:48
elsewhere if you cannot work the wrong
00:16:50
otherwise it's a common are shooting
00:16:53
investing in stocks is better than you
00:16:54
German this is another common beginner
00:16:56
mistake see it is possible for a direct
00:16:59
stock investor to be the mutual fund
00:17:01
manager it is definitely possible but do
00:17:04
not confuse possibility and probability
00:17:09
possibility is zero and one
00:17:12
it's binary possible or not possible
00:17:15
that's all probability is zero to one
00:17:18
anything between 0 to 1 this problem you
00:17:21
do not know the probability there's no
00:17:23
you cannot judge
00:17:26
the different possibility called
00:17:28
possible data canisters performance and
00:17:31
compare it with one - that's not
00:17:32
possible
00:17:33
yes sir so you cannot talk about
00:17:36
probability all you can do is you say
00:17:39
it's possible yes it's possible to be
00:17:41
but then you start investing direct
00:17:45
equity will you beat fund managers
00:17:47
nobody can say and this is another
00:17:52
problem I want to I want to move by the
00:17:56
fund manager as increased allocation
00:17:57
cash why as they might have they bought
00:18:00
this stock why have they sold this stock
00:18:03
you can sit and talk about it for hours
00:18:05
and hours and hours you never understand
00:18:07
it unless and until you are invited to
00:18:09
their fund management meeting table and
00:18:12
you will never be invited even if you
00:18:14
are invited to the meetings they will
00:18:15
never tell you the real reason do not
00:18:18
back try to backseat Drive your mutual
00:18:20
funds outsource money management do
00:18:23
something else look at it from time to
00:18:25
time but tune back see me regularly
00:18:28
funny
00:18:30
market timing there are two there are
00:18:31
two incorrect assumptions market timing
00:18:33
is not possible that is the incorrect
00:18:35
assumption this is a this is the problem
00:18:37
that has been this is a missile in by
00:18:39
the financial services industry because
00:18:41
they're worried that commissions will be
00:18:42
lost on their profits will be affected
00:18:44
market timing and the other wrong
00:18:46
mistake is that market timing extreme
00:18:48
people who packed the markets they say
00:18:50
that they want to time the market to get
00:18:52
more returns both of them are missed are
00:18:54
wrong market timing is definitely
00:18:57
possible and market timing has got very
00:19:02
high probability of lowering investment
00:19:05
risk and just about the coin toss
00:19:08
probability 50% this way or that way
00:19:11
coin toss probability of enhancing
00:19:14
returns it has got more than 50 percent
00:19:16
probability of lowering risk and it has
00:19:22
got just about borderline probability of
00:19:25
enhancing return sometimes risk will be
00:19:28
sorry this will more often than not be
00:19:31
lower but along with that sometimes
00:19:33
returns will be high sometimes returns
00:19:36
will be low
00:19:37
and another common mistake is related to
00:19:40
the Dolph is a peaking people who say I
00:19:42
have got alpha arse higher alpha does
00:19:45
not mean higher returns don't confuse
00:19:47
your another higher alpha means for a
00:19:49
particular level of risk the return is
00:19:51
justifiable and that's what alpha
00:19:53
essentially means after I have respected
00:19:55
video on this do not get country do not
00:19:57
confuse alpha and higher returns that's
00:19:59
another mistake as I'm just talking
00:20:03
about that so I can keep going there are
00:20:05
other mistakes please share in the
