Not only will you probably beat most people, you also didn’t have to spend hours/days looking over financials, trends, etc to determine whether or not a single stock is a good buy.
It kind of reminds me of an old guy that came in to Sportsmans and was complaining about replaceable blade knifes and how “kids these days don’t want to learn to properly sharpen a knife.” I ask him “how long did it take you to learn to properly sharpen a knife?” He stuck his chest out and said “boy, it took me a lifetime.” To which I chuckled and said “for less than 10 bucks a year, I saved myself a lifetimes worth of time.”
Time doing things I want to be doing is the most valuable thing I have.
