Most guys can never beat the market consistently or long term, so ETF's are a great way to go.
I definitely fall into the Buffet "buy and hold" category. I know myself well enough that I don't have the patience or interest to buy and sell. I'm diversified on my income streams enough that if I take a 40% hit on investments or/and the cash rate goes to zero I'm not going to lose any sleep.
