(I guess you choose the wrong guy ;-) ). However, we should not use the word "risk" but "fluctuation". Over the long term (more than 10 years), the stock market is not risky. However it will fluctuate big time! People that don't like to see their value going up and down must accept the low rate of CD's ! The M3 is my favorite car ever! If you send me 75K USD via paypal, I'll order one for you ;-) Hey B7,

That's just a stupid choice that financial planners came up with. What is really awesome about your post is that it makes so much sense to use cars! I'll take an M3, please. Thanks! Great post!!!!

I love to compare my investor profile with a car hahaha Glad I'm a Lexus SUV!! However, I’m totally off my investor profile. Right now I'm the Formula 1. How can I match this? Would you suggest to sell part of my equity that performs badly or that performs well compared to the market? Thanks! Great post!!!
