What was said around it

honorary number seven if you need this money in the next three to five years you should probably not be investing in stocks a few years in the stock market is not long enough to ensure that you're actually going to be making money so the shorter your investment time frame is the less likely you should be investing in stocks or really anything that could lose value in the short term ideally you should view anything you do in the stock market as a 10 to 20 year time frame and anything less than that becomes a lot riskier the reality is if you do what i just described you're pretty much guaranteed to make money over a 20-year period regardless of what the stock market does i say this so confidently because in the entire history of the stock market a 20-year holding period has never once produced a negative result that literally means you could buy in at the absolute top the day before a market crash and then not make a single other investment for another 20 years and you will have still made money and when you compare the drops with the gains you could quickly see that bear markets become a blip on the radar and over time they're barely noticeable get it barely noticeable smash the like
