thats why it depends on the person as an investor, i got few friends having different approaches to investments, see whichever that fits you. Because by the end of the day, you are responsible for your investments, advice and tips is just a guide, you do not need to follow all, you must however follow what you have decided and also rethink on the decision again and again and again until at a time where you feel that you are matured in investment intelligence (lolz, we have emotional intelligence, so why not "investment intelligence" ) that you have things backing you on the decision that you make.
