Investing is a lot like golf

When I played golf at a high level, I never thought I would have a career doing anything else in life regarding a career. I had practiced my whole life and had dedicated vast amounts of time to the sport. I’d sacrificed to be successful at the highest level. Other plans were in store when I found out that, due to a back disease, my ability to play golf at a high level would be forever changed. What I didn’t realize at that moment was that golf had prepared me for the next stage of life: investing. On the surface, it would seem golf and investing have little in common, almost day and night. But there are common themes and parallels.
