My first inclination was "Buy Apple Stock" Aeteocles is right though. Bitcoin would have smoked the AAPL.

Perfectly understandable, since it was concealed in the subject line.

Some of you guys are really bad at math. Stuff like this drives me crazy.

One. Two. Three.

Not fourfivesixseveneightnine~fortyfiftysixty

Three words

It's like when someone asks you to name your favorite movie, and some of you guys list two dozen films.

What's the point if you can't follow the rules of the game? In this instance, the idea is to distill down to essence something which normally cannot be conveyed in such a small space. There is an artistry involved. When you just jabber on, there's really no point.

I’m trying to find a 3-word version of:

“Don’t pay attention to old men who tell you to do what they themselves failed to do.”

Meanwhile, an executive named Steve once was so frustrated with his long-term, out-of-the-money stock options that he asked the Board to replace that package with a smaller grant of restricted shares that ultimately yielded $10.6B less in comparative value (pretax) before his death.

Thus, don’t beat yourself up if you also were not overly bullish on AAPL years ago.
