William Bernstein: 我从医生的职业转型始于对自身退休金规划的需求,因为美国缺乏完善的社会福利体系,我不得不为自己的未来负责。我像科学家一样,通过阅读大量的专业文献、收集数据和建立模型,系统地学习了金融知识。这个过程不仅让我掌握了金融知识,也让我发现了自己对写作的兴趣。 起初,我只是在网上分享我的金融模型和著作,没想到却吸引了媒体和投资者的关注,最终促使我开始管理资金并撰写书籍。这个过程并非一帆风顺,我经历了从对自身财务规划到职业转变的思考过程,也经历了从业初期投资的失败和学习。 在职业转型过程中,我逐渐意识到保持策略配置和再平衡的重要性。通过再平衡策略,我获得了额外的收益,这让我深入理解了资产配置和金融的本质。再平衡策略的核心是卖出价格上涨的资产,买入价格下跌的资产,这在黄金和贵金属投资中尤其有效。 虽然我的神经科医生背景对行为金融学的帮助不大,但它培养了我对数据和先验知识更新的尊重,这对我从事金融行业有很大的帮助。我仍然存在严重的冒名顶替综合征,但我会选择一些与主题关联性较小的专业领域进行演讲来克服它。 最后,我想给那些想要职业转型的人一些建议:在考虑职业转变前,应先确保财务安全,因为财务安全能带来时间和自主权。只有在财务安全的基础上,才能追求自己想要的生活。
