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!

Bull or Bull trap in Nov/Dec 2011?

Read? Re-making Portfolio to ride the Craziness of Market Cycles

Read? Bull, Bear and The Pyramid

"Bulls climb up a wall of worry, bears slide down in a slope of hope ."

Why worry? I am prepared for both Bull and Bear. I believe I have invested enough in stocks to run with the Bull and reserve cash to slide with the Bear.

  1. Yes, good to prepare for all possible scenarios.
    Lady fortune favours the WELL prepared.
    Unfortunately, come Q1 2011, I have a hunch Italy will cave in while Spain is any one's guess. If can give Greece 50% discount for debt, surely all those who borrow from Ah Long also want the same. I hope I am wrong but each time I see the Italian president with the smirk as he walks into each meeting, I feel uneasy. Contrast to the sombre mood of the German Counsellor.
    I may be wrong, it may not be Q1 2011 but it will come sooner or later.

  2. Yes, nothing in life is 100% sure. We always need to hedge our investments so that head or tail, we still will win. Albeit, a lesser amount then if you are right all the way in taking one side of the bet only. If you are wrong-Kaput then?

    Another words risk management and assets allotment will keep you in the game of investments. Rather all or nothing, just like in the Casino.

  4. Two things in life 100% will come...

    One is taxes and the other is for someone to return our IC.

  5. Hedge means if market goes up, you sell slowly and vice versa for stock investments. Always hedge for nobody really can predict the market. The same goes with real estate investment if you hold more 2 or more salable properties. Basically you want to win head or tail.

  6. Sometime, it is good to pay taxes as it is telling us that we are still earning well. The problem is that people forgot to set a side that taxes and marked them as non-spendable.
