The playbook that actually works:
Buy good companies.
Don't overpay.
Don't panic sell when they hit temporary problems.
Don't pile into hot momentum stocks.
It's boring. It's unsexy. It works.
Most people get 3 out of 4 right and still lose money. The discipline isn't in finding good companies — it's in not doing the stupid stuff when emotions run high.
