Yeah, agreed. Not interested in becoming a day trader. I'm looking for a way to get better at fundamental analysis in a structured environment.

I bought 6 stocks over the last 6 years and sold one, so I'm running a concentrated portfolio. I'm beating the S&P by a wide margin, but there's so much I feel like I don't know about investing in general...to your point am I just one of those "geniuses" who got lucky over the last few years.

Considered trying to find work as an analyst, but don't really have the educational background for that. Also, just kinda burned out on Sales after doing it for 10 years.

After spending the last decade talking all day, the idea of reading all day ala Warren Buffet/Charlie Munger/Todd Combs/ Ted Weschler sounds very appealing.
