Hi, Amazing performance! You recoup your capital in 5 year from dividend alone and now your have perpectual dividend for life (like freehold property). I guess the strategy is to buy blue chip at LOW and hold; beside regular dividend and also have unrealised profit as the stock appreciate in price.
In the famous book entitled Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, Jessie Livermore said: “After spending many years in Wall Street and after making and losing millions of dollars I want to tell you this: It never was my thinking that made the big money for me. It always was my sitting. Got that? My sitting tight!
It is no trick at all to be right on the market. You always find lots of early bulls in bull markets and early bears in bear markets. I've known many men who were right at exactly the right time, and began buying or selling stocks when prices were at the very level, which should show the greatest profit.
And their experience invariably matched mine -- that is, they made no real money out of it.
I found it one of the hardest things to learn. But it is only after a stock operator has firmly grasped this that he can make big money. It is literally true that millions come easier to a trader after he knows how to trade than hundreds did in the days of his ignorance.”
Men who can both be right and sit tight are uncommon.

That's because you got it at a low price; if you got a blue chip in venture would your returns be as good?

CW8888,
ReplyDeleteThat's the advantage of not being a one trick pony ;)
Fish for small kunings (rounds 1,2,3 kopi money trades) while waiting for big fishes to bite.
Got big fish, who cares if you use net, spear, or fishing rod?
I not into fishing so don't know which fishing method is better analogy for dividends and capital gains play...
But I know one style for sure! Dynamite fishing is like leverage trading. Get it right, lots of easy fishes. Get it wrong, sayonara.
LOL!
