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!

Right or Wrong?

No right. No wrong?

Known Unknown?

Unknown Unknown?


What do you think?


Real people. Real Example ...

Uncle8888's top three holding and also his top three longest holding period from 12 to 14 yrs.

12 years is a long time! Long enough for a baby to reach his or her secondary school level. :-)

14 years of collecting dividends from Kep Corp. It should be more than enough to show good patience. Right?

Total Return Vs. 2007 Peak Stock Price:

Just about 2.5% above 2007 peak.

Market timer won!




























13 years of collecting dividends from Semb Corp. It should be more than enough to show good patience. Right?

Total Return Vs. 2007 Peak Stock Price:

Just about -9.1% below 2007 peak.

Market timer won big!


























12 years of collecting dividends from DBS. It should be more than enough to show good patience. Right?

Total Return Vs. 2007 Peak Stock Price:

Just about 33.4% above 2007 peak.

Tortoise won!

  1. How to believe that there is a way of consistency in the stock market over decades? The Holy Grail?

  2. CW,

    Those going up the mountain are either chanting:

    1) If I think I can, I can! Or

    2) If others can, so can I!

    It's based on goals, dreams, visions, straight-line extrapolations, and this is what I'll do!


    Those going down the mountain?

    They are looking at personal track records, and sharing this is what I've done, felt, observed, experienced...


    One side thinks its different this time! The other side laments its never different this time.

    LOL!

    1. This is something that I learned differently. I learned to avoid thinking of average price. When we think of average price; this is what will happen. When lower become cheaper, we will tend to average down. Cheap what!

      I learn to think of every position is independent and think it as round X and round Y and not average price Z. Cheem?

    2. Actually this is about right.

      average price means you are fixated on those stocks that you average in on.
      the world changes, no point keep averaging in on texas instruments.
