Here is a riddle for you: Two coins add up to thirty cents and one of them is not a nickel. What are they?

Whether you know the answer or not, the point remains the same: the riddle makes money, and acquiring it, for that matter, a lot more complicated than it has to be. Wall Street and many others like to claim and lay out how difficult it is to beat the market and consistently make money in the markets and they love showing "losers" who tried and failed as examples of why you need them so badly.

In truth, it is startingly simple. Research stocks first, then buy them, plan to hold them through downtrends and look for stocks that you can buy low with a promise of them rising so you are never chasing. That is having Conviction and that is being a Contrarian to what so many say and want to do.

Keeping it simple works for the Tortoise. He is a simple creature who just plods along. He does always win though, just like you will, and that seems to be a riddle Wall Street can't seem to solve.
