  • Why the sequence of returns impacts investment performance, but also our expectations.
  • How what we experience in the world is made up of separate glimpses and events.
  • What are non-monetary things that compound with time and why there are no short-cuts.

  • How non-monetary investments of our time can increase our monetary wealth.
