Success
Many investors aspire to be successful but it's not a lot of investors that are truly successful. You know as an investor that you are successfully investing once you have seen the compound effect kick into your portfolio. Many investors never reach this point, a minority get there, and an absolutely minority turn financial markets into a goldmine. As per Tsaklanos his 1/99 Investing Principles it is approx. 9% of investors that are really successful, and just 1% that are outrageously successful.

It is something really different. Being counter intuitive really means that you act in a way that goes against your intuitive human reaction but also against regular practices that we know in day to day life.
