Quote by Benjamin Tan

“To my readers, I hope this book inspires you to align your investing strategies with your core strengths while recognizing the importance of balance and growth. Whether you are a Type Three seeking achievement, a Type Nine striving for peace, or a Type Two driven by helping others, investing can reflect your highest ideals. But as Frankl and Adler remind us, financial success alone does not sate our deepest yearnings. Meaning arises when we transcend self-interest to seek something larger.”

“Matching portfolio strategies to personality types thus became a primary thesis I pursued with equal parts curiosity and passion. I felt it was my calling to marry my expertise in finance, experience with personal investing, insights into clinical psychology, and a lifelong passion for pop culture into an accessible but powerful system to help readers on their road to financial empowerment. At the same time, I wanted to develop a message with an empathetic voice that would honor individuality. That is the origin story of Suit Yourself.”

“Suit Yourself incorporates personality typing into the finance genre. Using principles from said typology, this book guides readers to understand their unconscious tendencies and how mental, emotional, and instinctual leanings can play out in investment decisions.”

“God Eyes (Sonnet) Perception is not a measure of reality, perception is a measure of distance - from afar the sun is a dot, from farther the milkyway is a dot, from farther still the universe is a dot. Likewise, from afar God is an entity, from up close, God is a state of mind, get closer still, and you are God. Perception is like an oscillator circuit, alter the value of the resistor or capacitor, and you change the oscillation. Likewise, truth changes based on the resistance, ie. ignorance, and capacitance, ie. awareness, of your vantage point.”
