Mistakes in investing are not a very popular topic, but they belong to it and one can learn a lot from them. My main mistakes were, for example, that I started investing according to analysts or youtubers and chose stocks mainly according to their past growth.

What mistakes did you make in the beginning or during the investing process?

I didn't study as much fundamentals and business of companies and took maybe more risks than I should have.

I see, it's just one of those important things.

My mistakes in the beginning, on the other hand, were that I didn't listen to anyone and thought I was the smartest on the market...

In the beginning, I focused a lot on value stocks, which was a mistake because I didn't pay attention to those growth stocks with great potential.

I'm the same way, I recently switched to those growth stocks.
