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!

Stock Market Is War - Part 1


If Stock Market is War so are you aware of The Art Of War?

Sun Tzu: The Art of War

The Oldest Military Treatise in the World!

The Priciples of Warfare: Calculations!

Sun-tzu said:

Warfare is a great matter to a nation;it is the ground of death and of life; it is the way of survival and of destruction,and must be examined.

Therefore, go through it by means of five factors;compare them by means of calculation,and determine their statuses:

One, Way, two, Heaven, three, Ground, four, General, five, Law.

1. The Way is what causes the people to have the same thinking as their superiors; they may be given death, or they may be given life, but there is no fear of danger and betrayal.

2. Heaven is dark and light, cold and hot, and the seasonal constraints.

3. Ground is high and low, far and near, obstructed and easy, wide and narrow, and dangerous and safe.

4. General is wisdom, credibility, benevolence, courage, and discipline.

5. Law is organization, the chain of command, logistics, and the control of expenses.

All these five no general has not heard;one who knows them is victorious,one who does not know them is not victorious.

Therefore, compare them by means of calculation, and determine their statuses.
