Investors are tempted daily by misleading or incomplete information. They may make a lucky bet, realize a sizable profit, and find themselves full of confidence. Their next high-stakes gamble might backfire, not only hitting them in the balance sheet but also taking a mental and emotional toll. Even veteran investors can be caught off guard: a news item may suddenly cause havoc for an industry they've invested in; crowd mentality among fellow investors may skew the market; a CEO may turn out to be unprepared to effectively guide a company. How can one stay focused in such a volatile profession? If you can't trust your past successes to plan and predict, how can you avoid risky situations in the future?

In Big Money Thinks Small, veteran fund manager Joel Tillinghast shows investors how to avoid making these mistakes. He offers a set of simple but crucial steps to successful investing, including:
- Know yourself, how you arrive at decisions, and how you might be susceptible to self-deception.
- Make decisions based on your own expertise, and do not invest in what you don't understand.
- Select only trustworthy and capable colleagues and collaborators.
- Learn how to identify and avoid investments with inherent flaws.
- Always search for bargains, and never forget that the first responsibility of an investor is to identify mispriced stocks.

Patience and methodical planning will pay far greater dividends than flashy investments. Tillinghast teaches readers how to learn from their mistakes--and his own, giving investors the tools to ask the right questions in any situation and to think objectively and generatively about portfolio management.

So Comfy!
So soft, so comfy! I have never had a wrist rest before, but since upgrading to my first custom keyboard, which is higher off of the desk than my previous one, I wanted some comfort and support. This wrist rest is perfect, but keeping in mind it is meant for ten keyless keyboards, and my keyboard is also made by Glorious, it is perfect size and height. For a slimmer lower profile keyboard it might be a bit tall. I would make sure that your keyboard thickness will accommodate how thick this thing is. It is nice and firm, and should hold up for a long time :)

Great for the Logitech G915 and G915X
Color: Stealth, Size: Full Size
Pretty much the perfect size and height for comfortable, ergonomically-correct typing on the low-height gaming keyboards like the G915 and G915X from Logitech. Got one of these for work and loved it enough to get one for home as well.

so I felt like it was time to invest in a wrist pad
Color: Black, Size: Full Size
Im an Editor and spend most of my days typing in front of a computer. I've never really used a wrist pad before, but my wrists were laying on the edge of my desk, which after a while, began to hurt my wrists, so I felt like it was time to invest in a wrist pad. I looked at plenty of them here on Amazon and this one from Glorious had some great reviews, so I thought I'd give it a try. Even though I'm not a "gammer," this rest is beyond awesome! It's perfect for typing all day, and even though some reviews noted that it was too "high" - it's really not and works great on a keyboard with a kickstand under it, or even when I'm not using my wireless keyboard, it still works great typing on my MacBook Air (2015 Edition). It has a sticky underside that keeps it in place, but it's also not too sticky, so you can move it around with ease. I will admit, it is a little firm, so if you're looking for a wrist pad that's "gel-like" for your wrists to sink into - this is not for you. It's firm and holds your wrists up above the keyboard so that you're typing downward, rather than having your wrist slanted up at a 45 degree angle, which is terrible for you. I've only had the wrist pad for 2 days, but I can't tell you how much pain it's relieved from my wrists sitting on the edge of my desk. The full length one fits perfectly with my keyboard with the numbers extended on the right side, and should I decide to only use my laptop's keyboard, the pad works great for that as well. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a solid, firm pad to rest your wrists on while typing.

My wrists feel like they are way too high to type comfortably
For the Price and function of this product to me it gets 3 stars. To problem is however for me, the height of the pad is a bit ridiculous. My wrists feel like they are way too high to type comfortably. I am using an HHKB pro2 and using this wrist rest, my wrists are suspended extremely high up compared to my keyboard. It just does not feel right. But at the very least this wristrest prevents me from digging my wrist into the edge of my desk which is all I wanted it to do really in the first place. But with my wrists this high up, it just seems extremely awkward to type normally. Maybe hopefully the wristrest will flatten over time. It has to be mentioned as well that my unit is not perfectly flat. If I put pressure on either the right or left side of the wrist rest, the opposite side of which I pressed will result in being raised upwards. This is not a huge problem, I am just nitpicking here. Lastly, the gaudy branding is a turn off for me. This is extremely subjective but if it came just purely with no logo or a much smaller one I would have been happier. I dont really need everyone who walks by my computer setup to read "Glorious PC gaming race." I just do not fit that age demographic anymore. If this wrist rest was a few CM lower in height, and the branding was gone. I wouldve easily gave it 6/5 stars. The build quality seems very good and sturdy.

Beautiful and comfortable wrist rest
Color: Walnut Wood, Size: Large
This walnut wrist rest is fantastic. It’s a solid, well-crafted piece of wood with a great natural feel. The edges are nicely filed and smooth to the touch, and the wood grain looks beautiful in person. You can really feel the texture of the wood when typing, but it’s never rough or uncomfortable—just a nice tactile reminder of the quality material. The color and finish are great, not glossy or sticky, and it stays cool and comfortable even during long sessions. It fits perfectly with my full-size keyboard and adds both comfort and a great aesthetic to my desk setup. If you’re looking for a wrist rest that’s both functional and classy, this is absolutely worth the price. Highly recommend.
