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!

Why You Must Be Better At Selling, Buying, Holding, Buying Back And War Chest??? All Are Equally Important!!!


Read? Mind-blowing math animation explains why stock market wealth is an ILLUSION that vanishes in a crash

Almost no one really understands the basics of how the stock market works, and they suffer under the illusion that EVERY stock share is worth the same price as the last share that was traded. (If you’re confused why this isn’t the case, you’ve been lied to… watch the animation below to learn the truth that Wall Street doesn’t want you to ever realize.)

Thus, in a rising stock market bubble, people who hold shares that were purchased at far lower prices suffer under the illusion that all those shares are “worth” the current high price.

As my animation video reveals below, that idea is nothing but illusion. In truth, share prices are only transmuted into real wealth when they are SOLD. Yet it is impossible for all the holders of the shares to all sell at the current price for the simple reason that selling shares causes their price to fall.

Thus, the mathematical reality is that all the outstanding shares of any given public company are really only worth a fraction of the current market price. This is easily demonstrated in any given market correction or crash where share prices plummet. Ignorant investors falsely believe their “wealth” is being “destroyed” when, in reality, that wealth never existed in the first place.

Taming that Illusion and getting nearer to real and lesser illusion of wealth or net worth in the Land of Distribution or going down Mountain.

We can't eat on Illusion of wealth in the stock market!

    1. CW,

      We can't buy anything with percentages, and networth is like the reflection of the moon over the lake - an illusion - unless we sell and realised the gains ;)


      Yet some spend lots of time meauring and counting in 2 decimal places or quibbling over brokerage commissions when we all knew if we had sold near the highs, we could be several hundreds of thousands ahead in real money.

      Now that's sweating the small stuffs and ignoring the elephant in the room!
