Going Against the Crowd Can Lead to Big Payoffs

“You’re a damned liar, Tiwari.”

I sometimes see comments like this.

Being no stranger to the wrath of internet keyboard warriors, I usually ignore them. I’m used to having my investment ideas attacked. So that doesn’t bother me.

I remember when I started recommending cryptos as part of a well-diversified portfolio. I thought I’d need a bodyguard for all the hate mail I received.

Or when I started recommending ways to play the private equity and collectibles markets… Again and again, I saw the hate mail pour in.

None of it bothered me. In fact, the more an investment idea of mine is hated, the more likely it is I’ve uncovered a winner.

But this particular comment got under my skin. You see, when someone calls me a liar, it’s a little different.
