Human beings are hard-wired to do things.
And the pace of modern life has intensified it.

It’s the principle on which most great fortunes are built...
And it’s far more powerful than you might imagine.

The thought of running into the storm wouldn't even cross your mind.
But what if I told you, it should?

Quit the stock market at the top and buy back in again at the bottom.
It sounds great doesn’t it?
But while the temptation to try to time the market is considerable...
The reality rarely lives up to the promise.
