What makes every human different?

My sister always behaves completely differently than me. I am always shocked at why she behaves differently. We have both been staying together since she was born. Mostly, whatever I eat and drink is the same as hers, and we even studied in the same school. But I discovered many differences between myself and her .  when I met one of the twins' sisters. I am curious and want to ask some questions about this. Are they the same? Are they the same in all circumstances? I got an answer of no. Why do people change their behavior?

Unveiling the Multi-bagger Myth

In the world of investing, the allure of multi-bagger stocks is undeniable. These stocks have the potential to deliver exceptional returns and create substantial wealth for investors. While conventional wisdom often highlights certain financial metrics as indicators of multi-bagger potential, a deeper understanding reveals that what most people know isn't worth knowing. In this blog, we will challenge the common beliefs surrounding multi-baggers and explore the factors that truly drive their success. 1. Looking Beyond High ROCE/ROE While high Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) and Return on Equity (ROE) are considered important financial indicators, they do not guarantee multi-bagger status. Instead, it is crucial to identify companies that have the ability to consistently improve their ROCE and ROE over time. 2. Rethinking Debt/Equity Ratios Low Debt/Equity ratios are often seen as a positive sign, indicating financial stability. However, merely focusing on reducing debt levels doe...
