Two more links than I provided ? Um, right. But I am not claiming to have evidence from a "systematic study".

There must be millions of people around the world who have bought and held growing assets, my fucking dad did and he is no warren buffet.

I have absolutely no back up evidence of this, but you don't either. One blog, now two blogs neither of which are peer reviewed or provide any form of source data. This second blogs just quotes someone else.

Its hard to hold on to a growing asset ? I really don't think it is. Unless you desperately need the money for something more important.
