Noble Eightfold Path Investing:

1. Right Views (logical concept, business model, NetROCI, CROCI, Balance Sheet Anatomy)

2. Right Thinking Process (evaluation, valuation)

3. Right Speech (decision making)

4. Right Action (buy excellent business with fair price)

5. Right Livelihood (keep & wait for intrinsic and dividend compoundings)

6. Right Diligence (reinvest dividend)

7. Right Determined Mind (stick to the six paths' standpoints, unmoved by enticing wrong concepts)

8. Right Concentration (don't diverse)

Funny - I want to work from home because I’m more efficient - less people coming in and bothering me and breaking my concentration, I am less tired not spending 2 hours on the road, not stressed because I don’t deal with idiot drivers everyday.
