Wise advice. Buffett said many famous and or wealthy have sought his investing advice, and he gave them the same advice he gives away free to everyone. (Which is similar to your advice).

When asked why the former group did not, he replied “They didn’t want to get rich slowly”. “Be patient” sums it up well.
