判断对错并不重要,重要的是正确时获取了多少利润,错误时亏损了多少。
It is not whether you're right or wrong that's important, but how much money you make when you're right and how much you lose when you're wrong.

这句话究竟在说什么
结果导向的盈亏管理——投资不是关于'正确率'的比赛,而是关于'盈亏比'的游戏。一次正确的交易赚10万,一次错误的交易亏1万,即使正确率只有30%,长期也是赚钱的。关键不是每次都对,而是对的要大赚、错的小亏。这要求:识别高概率机会时下重注,错误时果断止损。
给普通投资者的可执行清单
一个真实故事 / 场景化情节
索罗斯1992年做空英镑的押注,回报率约为30%(10亿美元利润),而如果他判断错误,最大损失约为持仓的2-3%(约2-3亿美元保证金)。这是一次典型的'高概率+高赔率'交易——历史经验和基本面分析都指向英镑必然贬值,所以他下了重注。
这句话在该大师思想体系里的位置
马克·吐温也曾说:'**预测无关紧要,建造诺亚方舟才重要。**'
我之所以富有,是因为我比其他人更快地承认自己的错误。
I'm only rich because I recognize my mistakes faster than the others realize theirs.
你无法预测未来,但你可以为未来做好准备。
You can't predict, but you can prepare.
重要的不是你判断正确或错误,而是正确时你赚了多少,错误时你亏了多少。
It's not whether you're right or wrong that's important, but how much money you make when you're right and how much you lose when you're wrong.
做初始投资决策时要往下看,而不是往上看。要先不亏钱,剩下的选择大多都不错。
Look down, not up, when making your initial investment decision. If you don't lose money, most of the remaining alternatives are good ones.
