basant i like your boarding train analogy again very common sense at
play even a person with hazy vision can board a stationary train try
boarding a train hurtling at 60 miles per hr now thats siucidal.
understanding both the power of compound return and the difficulty getting it is the heart and soul of understanding a lot of things

Here is another gem from that WB lecture:
We never look back. We just figure there is so much to look forward to that there is no sense thinking of what we might have done. It just doesn’t make any difference. You can only live life forward.-Warren Buffet
Life can only be understood backwards—but it must be lived forwards
