Although it is proved that the machinations of active investor's portfolio, probably did not help his return, a recent study shows that it did not help his happiness, either. Gallup World Poll 132 countries and more than 136 000 respondents indicated that in the United States, although it is a rich nation on Earth, gives poorer countries when it comes to personal pleasure.

Researchers found two kinds of happiness that is correlated with wealth. One relates to the overall evaluation of the life of the individual. This form of happiness is as a person compares with their colleagues and establishes internal sense of accomplishment. More of their wealth, the more the person normally, assessing their satisfaction with their places in the world.
The second type of happiness everyday behavior and feelings of satisfaction measured, including laugh, smile, joy and what researchers call a "socially psychological well-being" Shockingly any income increase over $ 75000 per year has almost no correlation daily happiness.

This has obvious implications for investment styles, and stresses the importance of asset allocation on stock picking as passive and active forms of governance.
Asset allocation frees your time and your mind for more important things. When you know your money is diversified and your assets are safe, you can leave a computer monitor and get busy with a truly valuable things in life. You'll think less of your money and more about the people around you. And contrary to what some might believe most friends and family really don't want to hear about your recent stock or option.
When a person has to feel that their life is financially secure, he or she will be higher rated in terms of day-to-day happiness. As pointed out by Dr. Ed's Diner from Illinois State University, one person can have a motor home while the other mansion. If a person with motor home feel secure that their houses would never have taken their happiness will be ranked higher than those in the Mansion are afraid of losing their homes.
This principle emphasizes the importance of life within your budget and without pension capital to unnecessary risk. Active control requires increased risk in the endless search for income. Although index investing was beat active control over long time horizons, asset allocation has been proved to lower risk, providing a much greater stability of your portfolio.
When it comes to money, active and passive management debate, I understand that there's more discussion than profit. Both the economy and psychology demonstrate now that the distribution of passive assets exceeds the active management of both financial and emotional impact.
