$UBER I know a lot of my friends have recently been talking about $UBER and how it makes sense from a value perspective but as I look at the fundamentals, I’m also keeping my eye on posts like this. Uber as of right is a great value company but so was Sears before Amazon. With headlines of robotaxis and Waymo’s expanding all over the place, I don’t think there’s much room for multiple growth. This seems more like a value trap at the moment, not because there is anything wrong with the business but instead it’s the headline risk that could keep the companies stock grounded.

The Investor’s Curse The strange thing about investing is that the closer you get to winning, the easier it becomes to forget what winning was supposed to mean. In the beginning, you invest to become free. If you are successful enough, you can eventually spend your entire life worrying about the thing that was supposed to set you free. This is the investor’s curse: the same wealth that increases your ability to take risk can destroy your ability to tolerate it. Someone with $10m can afford to lose $1m far more easily than someone with $100k can afford to lose $10k, yet the first loss may feel infinitely more painful. Risk is experienced in dollars even when it should be understood in consequences. Success can even make your greatest investment feel like your greatest danger. The company that created your wealth becomes too large and too important to hold comfortably. Nothing about the business changed, but its success transformed it from an opportunity you hoped would work into an asset you are terrified to lose. So you diversify, but diversification introduces a risk rarely found in textbooks. You sell the few businesses you understand deeply and replace them with many you understand less, exchanging visible concentration for invisible ignorance. The portfolio may look safer while the quality of your judgment quietly declines. Then comes the most seductive trap which is believing every dollar must remain productive forever. The first $1m might buy freedom and the next few might buy security, but eventually another $1m becomes little more than a larger number on a screen. Yet many investors risk the freedom they already have to pursue money they may never meaningfully experience. Perhaps wealth should eventually change the question. Early on, the question is how much you can make, but later it should become how little of your life must remain controlled by money. If your portfolio can fall 50% without changing how your family lives or what you are free to do, the decline may be financially enormous while being practically irrelevant. The final stage of investing is not learning how to take more risk or eliminate it completely. It is learning which portion of your wealth no longer needs to participate in the contest. The greatest investors know how to compound capital, but the wisest eventually learn when capital has compounded enough. 🌹
