Thanks for sharing. I feel as though I am in a race this year as I'm quite new in the scheme of things. I'm fortunate to have a high paying job and the freedom to invest regularly in a small selection of stocks. I've observed that the quality companies treat me the best especially when I don't mess with them (i.e. jump in and out). 

I have a few educated bets in play that are slowly tracking up, but I am at odds with myself and wondering if It's best for me to sit in cash and wait for the event we're all weary of (I did very well buying in last october during the slaughter). That said I'd like to take this time to play in some promising looking companies, ones I'd be happy to hold long term too, to see if I can come to understand this game better.
