"You can bet on America but you have to be careful about how you bet," he said. "Markets can do anything." 

"In my view, for most people, the best thing is to do is owning the S&P 500 index fund. There are huge amounts of money people pay for advice they really don't need. If you bet on America and sustain that position for decades, you'd do far better than buying treasury securities."

Volatile Market

“I will tell you how to become rich. Close the doors. Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful” ― Warren Buffett, The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America

Elon Musk on Twitter: "Since I’ve been asked a lot: Buy stock in several companies that make products & services that *you* believe in. Only sell if you think their products & services are trending worse. Don’t panic when the market does. This will serve you well in the long-term."

IBD’S 10 SECRETS TO SUCCESS

From Investor's Business Daily:
1. How you think is everything. Always be positive. Think success, not failure. Beware of negative environments.

2. Decide upon your true dreams and goals. Write down your specific goals and develop a plan to reach them.

3. Take action. Goals are nothing without action. Don't be afraid to get started. Just do it.

4. Never stop learning. Go back to school or read books. Get training and acquire skills.

5. Be persistent and work hard. Success is a marathon, not a sprint. Never give up.

6. Learn to analyze details. Get all the facts, all the input. Learn from your mistakes.

7. Focus your time and money. Don't let other people or things distract you.

8. Don't be afraid to innovate, be different. Following the herd is a sure way to mediocrity.

9. Deal and communicate with people effectively. No person is an island. Learn to understand and motivate others.

10.Be honest and dependable; take responsibility. Otherwise numbers 1-9 won't matter.
