I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Bolton again!

I wrote in Nov 2009 Cash Is King?

Bolton's china fund takes a beating

Lost -29% of NAV in six months to Sep 30.

Bolton said:

"It  was a real lesson for me. I was wrong. In this business of probabilities, they are many times I'm wrong. But, it's darkest before dawn."

"The most difficult thing about investment is not about what the future looks like but what future is discounted in today prices. If future looks bad and everyone becomes risk averse, that's a far less risky world."

"This is the time to be optimistic and go against the trend. The most dangerous times are opposite, when everyone's happy."

  1. I got to admire this Bolton guy! Down 29%, admit he is wrong, and then go on to say it's time to go against the trend and be optimistic!?

    It reminds me of the Monty Python sketch of the Black Knight. Lost his arms and legs; but bravely say "it's only a scratch"!

    LOL!
