28. When emotions (or maybe pride) rule over reason in investing


Mr. Newton is hailed as one of the most influential scientist OF ALL TIME!

and yet he became "victim" of one of the first bubbles in the history of investing

He was already doing good when he got out with profits, but when he saw his friends continuing to make money (maybe thinking I should be making more because I am smarter than them? - a case of pride?) He plunged right back in and doubled/tripled his investment, only to lose out BIG in the end
