In 1979, Jerry Buss bought the Lakers for $67.5M.
In 2025, the family sold their majority stake for $10B.

Sounds like a win.
Until you do the math.

If he’d put that $67.5M into the S&P 500, he’d have over $16B today.
Zero stress, zero headlines, way more money.

He got outperformed by an index fund.🧵
