Many people, including myself, believe that Alpha is a zero-sum game, or at least effectively a zero-sum game. Therefore, it is clueless people like this couple who provide Alpha for those who know what they are doing.

This discussion is kind of like our complaining about how much debt everyone has as we congratulate ourselves on our well performing financial and retail equities. Be happy that others are foolish and that this makes you rich!

Why the heck do they need 10 million to retire? That'll finance way more of a lifestyle than they live now.

Okay, I'll just come out and admit my ignorance. What is "Alpha"?
