Just because some bought cheap doesn't make us less human . It just makes us more sensible investors. However if you feel it is noble to buy a cyclical business at the top of the cycle and then act as if that makes you somehow more deserving then so be it. The market shouldn't be emotional it should be a calculated action.
You could reverse your joke to what is the difference between someone who spruiks holding Atlas long and strong and a First World War general. One leads others to their doom and the other is a soldier.
