“We have been trying to point out that this concept of an indefinitely favorable future is dangerous, even if it is true; because even if it is true you can easily overvalue the security, since you make it worth anything you want it to be worth. Beyond this, it is particularly dangerous too, because sometimes your ideas of the future turn out to be wrong. Then you have paid an awful lot for a future that isn't there. Your position then is pretty bad.” IfsWantTryingHas BeensIdeasSometimesTurnsSecurityDangerousPositionConceptsPaidAwfulTrue You Book:Current problems in security analysis Source: Current problems in security analysis
“In the financial markets, however, the connection between a marketable security and the underlying business is not as clear-cut. For investors in a marketable security the gain or loss associated with the various outcomes is not totally inherent in the underlying business; it also depends on the price paid, which is established by the marketplace. The view that risk is dependent on both the nature of investments and on their market price is very different from that described by beta.” DifferentLossViewsClearCuttingRiskSecurityDependsGainsConnectionsPaidInvestmentInvestingFinancialVariousOutcomesDependentInvestorsInherentMarketplaceFinancial MarketsBeta Author:Seth Klarman

“Risk is not inherent in an investment; it is always relative to the price paid. Uncertainty is not the same as risk.

“Social Security should be phased out and ended altogether. ... Social Security in any form is morally irredeemable. We should be debating, not how to save Social Security, but how to end it - how to phase it out so as to best protect both the rights of those who have paid into it, and those who are forced to pay for it today. This will be a painful task. But it will make possible a world in which Americans enjoy far greater freedom to secure their own futures.” WorldShouldEndsTodayFormSocialEnjoyPayGreaterRightsSecurityProtectTasksPaidPainfulSecurePhasesSocial Security Author:Alex Epstein
