Excellent post GeorgeF.

Taken more broadly, I think you should put your time into your most positive EV efforts. If you enjoy the field you're working in, focus on that. Until you've gotten to the top of the field you've chosen there's plenty of room for big wage/salary increases that are probably a lot higher EV than trying to invest.

On the other hand, if you try investing and are really passionate about it, maybe you should change fields.
