Brilliant Interview with Mr Spangler

Submitted by CatherineL on January 16, 2008 - 08:28.

Great post - and brilliant advice from Mr Spangler. I love reading interviews with these type of people. They have years of experience and mistakes, and they're never too proud to admit where they went wrong.

Number 9 hit a nerve with me. I am just having to readjust my projections for the coming year, because the last ones I did were completely unrealistic.

And it's not easy - probably because you don't want to get to the end and realise that if you'd been more accurate to start with, you might not have invested in that particular business.

I guess the learning never really stops. We just hope that our mistakes become fewer and less painful.
