๐ฐ Money Myth: *"Just follow the smart money."*
I've been watching people around me make money on SpaceX.
On stocks.
On things I don't fully understand.
And honestly?
Part of me wonders if I'm playing the wrong game.
But here's the truth I keep coming back to:
I don't have the knowledge to play poker at that table.
I don't understand earnings calls.
I can't read a balance sheet under pressure.
I don't have the edge to trade stocks intelligently.
So if I followed the "smart money" into those bets โ
I wouldn't be investing.
I'd be gambling with someone else's conviction.
That's not a plan.
That's just fear of missing out wearing a suit.
๐ง The myth isn't that smart money is wrong.
The myth is that following it makes you smart too.
๐ฌ Have you ever chased something just because others were winning at it?
โก Zap if you've learned to stay in your lane โ even when it's hard.
๐งญ Observe. Reflect. Build.
