The 5 Stocks With the Best Returns Since 2000

Back in 2017, I wrote a short fact & opinion piece about this little mental-masturbation approach with stocks:

i.e., the artful play of pretending you have a pair of magical 20/20 hindsight glasses; a pair that will help you clearly SEE just how bad you screwed up by NOT selling all your worldly possessions and… say… put it all on a company like Netflix or Amazon back in the day.

To remind yourself — most importantly your younger loved ones — the power of always being BULLISH on forward-thinking, ambitious, possibility-minded people who are interested in solving problems through good companies.
