Great collection, but here’s the thing—95% of people quoting Buffett don’t actually invest like Buffett. They trade, they chase, they time the market. Does quoting him mean anything if you’re not willing to sit through a 50% drawdown?

I agree with this.

While my investing style is totally different from Buffett's, I have no problem sitting through 50% drawdowns. I've even gone through 85% drawdowns (e.g. Shopify in 2022).
