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!

Guess what happened after someone asked me the above question. Many people become buay song with the "reply".


But, before I say my piece .....

“If you are in the right sector at the right time, you can make a lot of money very fast” –Peter Lynch
"You need $10,000 and two 10-baggers, and you're a millionaire." –Peter Lynch

It is how to become rich in stocks if we read Peter Lych correctly!
$10K ---> $100K ----> $1M

or

$XXX,XXX ---> $X,XXX,XX (A portfolio of multi-baggers will help)

Let begin ......

I was the HERO and stubbornly held on to two rotten durians to ZERO and then the durian owners kind enough gave me two pieces of Toilet Paper to remind me of the SHIT!

Do I earn the right to tell you this true life story in investing after many years of adventures and mis-adventures in the stock market?

What do you think? Hmm....

Why I am strong advocate of waiting for dividend growth stocks to come to us?


Case Study 1 - Kep Corp






Batch 1: Bought in 18 Sep 2001 after WTC Attack and holding it over 10.8 years

For past 10.8 years, the dividend yield is as follows:

Lowest: 10.4%
Highest: 44.2%

Total Dividend Return on initial investment cost = 291%

Annualized Return = 27%

Unrealized capital gain as of Friday market closing price at $10.28 = 681% over 10.8 years

Annualized Unrealized Return = 63%

So Dividend Return vs. Capital Appreciation291% vs. 681%


Batch 2: Bought in 26 Mar 2004 and holding it over 8.3 years

For past 8.3 years, the dividend yield is as follows:

Lowest: 5.7%
Highest: 18.1%

Total Dividend Return on initial investment cost = 99%

Annualized Return = 11.9%

Unrealized capital gain as of Friday market closing price at $10.28 = 220% over 8.3 years

Annualized Unrealized Return = 27%

So Dividend Return vs. Capital Appreciation99% vs. 220%


Paper profit is useless as it cannot buy food

I know!

That is why I am also doing short-term trading when market presents opportunity to make pocket money.

  1. Regarding your five points, read? I think married can double the savings rate, if you find the right partner :)
    http://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2011/09/15/a-brief-history-of-the-stash-how-we-saved-from-zero-to-retirement-in-ten-years/

    My takeaway from this post, wait for opportunity to buy at good price for stock which can give dividend and growth. From my newbie POV, the label of the stock (div/growth/etc) is not important, since if you buy at a low enough price, the div and capital gain will both grow.

    One question, what's your strategy to extract the $ out of all the capital gains in the future? Once your take out, the $ become real, but we still want to protect against inflation, so must put back somewhere right? Would you then consider putting into cash flow emphasis stocks or other mediums?

  2. "Total net losses in 2008: $160K"

    Hi compare to me you are very lucky. I lost almost 2.0 times what you you lost. but i never expect to recover so soon and make money too in 2010, 2011 and 2012. Do you believe in buy & hold? If you don't, please be a trader.
    Actually 2012 is still in the process.

    1. Thank for sharing the part on losses so that newbies are aware that investing is rather risky and can really lose lots of hard earned money.

  3. Praise be given to God because i ask for His Blessings in investment. The money i lost now or make are all given by HIM for all these 23 years+. i am a believer in unless God Blesses you whatever you do is in vain. Even after you make some money it doesn't mean you are O. K. IMHO.

  4. And I thank you both Temperament and CW8888 for selflessly sharing:)

    You both recovered thanks to his Grace or lucky the durians were not rotten till zero.

    Some stocks that crashed in 2008 never recovered even till today... It's always back to stock selection and what price we have paid for them.

    For wisdom, I listen to those who have walked the path before me.

    "The market is not your mother. It consists of tough men and women who look for ways to take money away from you instead of pouring milk into your mouth." - Dr. Alexander Elder

    How true it is.

    I pray when I sell you two are not buying from me. And when I buy, you both are not selling to me!

    Stay away! LOL!
