"When Philip fisher died last month at the age of 96,it suddenly struck me that being a wise and patient stock-market guru may be the best route to a long life. After all Philip Carret died in 1998 at 101, John Templeton is still going strong at 91, and Roy Neuberger celebrated his 100th birthday last July. What they all have had in common is a belief in long-term investing and the equanimity to follow that strategy."
That makes the 4t time in as many weeks that I have heard about a precieved notion that longevity is somehow correlated with the lenth of time one holds securities on average. I couldent think of how it could be possible but now I am starting to wonder. Could it be that someone who is predisposed to thinking futher into the future than the average person would take better care of thier health? What do you think?
