Default The best investing advice I\'ve heard.

It probably came from Buffett. Below is not the exact quote but somewhat similar.

"Imagine you can only own 10 stocks in your life time before buying a stock."

Here's some better advice from Buffet:

"For more than 99% of all Americans, investing in index funds is best."
