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!

What Chained Baby Elephants Can Teach Us About Poverty Slavery, Wealth And Financial Independence???


Sometime in the investment blogosphere; it can give us some insight into lesson on what chained baby elephants can teach us about childhood poverty into full grown adult on wealth and financial independence at our 40s, 50s and 60s.



The difference between personal poverty slavery and financial independence and feeling of financial and retirement adequacy is simply vision in our mind. For some of us, this poverty chain can hold firmly in our minds for the rest of our life even we have far out grown this childhood poverty chain like the chained baby elephant and simply refuse to let it free.

In Uncle8888's generation; many of us are from poor family living in one or 2 room rental flat and purchasing TV set on 24 months installment. At that time owning TV set with cash payment was a luxury item which the real poor couldn't afford it.
