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!

One Lesson Learnt After Looking Back At The Past 16 Years Records In Long-term Investing and Short-term Trading.



For small retail investor like Uncle8888 who has a full-time job to take care and his earned income is enough to feed his family of five member as single household income. It is tight but manageable!

He has learned one lesson after looking back at his past 16 years records in long-term investing and short-term trading. It is better NOT to speculate in the stock market for monthly or daily cash flow

Trading for a living is a full-time job. Are we financially off better in trading for living or working for a living? 

We should be true and honest to ourselves after we have tried our hands on it.
