“Returns and risk go side by side. If you are looking for returns, you have to take risks.”

“Unless you are in the game, you are not in the game. From the sidelines, everything looks either tough or easy. [...] Get into the market and face the reality rather than saying something on the sidelines.”

“I don’t have the time to do the research, that’s why I’m using experts.”

“It’s a dynamic market, so there will be opportunities all the time. When people are not in, you should be getting in.”
