Feeling Lazy? Here's Why That Could Make You a Better Investor
I'm sure this isn't overly shocking to some, but many investors don't care too much about investing. They invest because they know they should and like watching their money grow, but they don't necessarily care for a lot of the aspects surrounding investing -- and that's perfectly fine.
In fact, that could actually make some people better investors. By incorporating a hands-off, or "lazy," investing style, investors can often achieve comparable or better results than active investors, with much less headache.
One of the worst rabbit holes you can go down as an investor is frequently trading and thinking you can consistently time the stock market. You may be right every now and then, but history shows that the vast -- and I do mean vast -- majority of people can't do it consistently over time.
