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!

Not every great investment is suitable for you

Although an investment might have a great chance of turning in a positive outcome, it might still not necessarily be suitable for you.

Continuing from the imaginary example above, investing your entire portfolio in high-yielding shares might not be the best option for you. Since you’ve just started work for only a few years, it’s likely your investment portfolio is small – this makes reinvesting dividends impractical. And given that the reinvestment of dividends can be a very powerful force in boosting long-term share market returns, it might not make sense for you, as a new investor, to chase high-yielding shares.

Instead, it might be more suitable for you (again, hypothetically as per the imagined scenario described earlier) to concentrate on companies which have a strong track record of growth and which retain most of their earnings to fund growth. In that way, you can benefit from the company compounding its own economic value over time.
