In this final installment of our six part Introduction to Investing Series, we summarise the three key attributes of a successful investor.

Steve would you consider Slater and Gordon a cornflake stock at the moment?
Hi Nash. I’m not even sure I want to own it, let alone live off cornflakes for a month in order to do so.

2. three characteristics of a successful investor
3. three key attributes of a successful investor

Steve, you truly are an agitator investor who never stands still, but moves like a washing machine, incrementally moving in floor position due to the smallest of psychological bents that ensures Forager-ians to be part of an exciting contrarian wilfulness of wealth creation
Pretty much the only 2 reasons I put some money with Forager:
1. Nothing apart from value investing makes sense to me – its a method thats very difficult but proven with time to be special, if consistently followed (everything else is guesswork, or worse, reading tea leaves).
2. (And the most important reason) The guys at Forager ALL are brave enough and humble enough to admit their own weaknesses. And this is really, really important. I don’t want my money managed by someone who believes their own BS.
