“Warren Buffett likes to say that the first rule of investing is "Don't lose money," and the second rule is, "Never forget the first rule." I too believe that avoiding loss should be the primary goal of every investor. This does not mean that investors should never incur the risk of any loss at all. Rather "don't lose money" means that over several years an investment portfolio should not be exposed to appreciable loss of principal.” ShouldYearsFirstsBelieveMeanDoeGoalLosesLossForgetRiskInvestmentInvestingLikesPrimariesNever ForgetInvestorsExposedPrincipalAvoidingPortfoliosBuffettWarren Buffet Author:Seth Klarman

This sounds like magic. But it really works because the current system is not Pareto efficient. It's a system that generates hundreds of billions of dollars in litigation costs and deadweight losses that HIF-registered medicines would sidestep. By avoiding these losses, the HIF reform can bring improvements all around - including for pharmaceutical innovators.” ThinkingSoundLossPoorMagicCostBenefitsInnovationImpactDollarsMedicineIncludingCurrentsBurdenBillionsImprovementReformFundMechanismEfficientAvoidingWeight LossReducingInnovatorsAffluentPharmaceutical Author:Thomas Pogge
