I am one of those idiots like your dad.

Yeah, if I knew then what I know now blah blah blah I'd be worth $10m.

I just remember reading the very detailed Fidelity study on who were the best amateur traders and investors over a 15 year period based on actual data, and they were almost ALL dead people or inactive accounts. I've really taken it to heart.

Never forget that procrastination and inattention are still some of the best skills in an investors toolbox!
