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!

  1. Hi Uncle8888,

    If we were Americans or Vietnamese, your ex-colleague would probably be smiling at his investments! :)

    Some countries smiling, other countries crying! LOL!

    A broad global index fund or ETF will have generated 4.5% CAGR (dividends reinvested) from the top of previous bull Q3 2007 till today. Not very spectacular. But many will be worse becoz they sold near the bottom in 2008 or 2009.

    Unfortunately till today, no CPF-approved low cost global or S&P500 index fund or ETF. Only expensive unit trusts.

    I took a look at my own performance for cash + equities for the same 11-years period --- only like 5.5%, barely better than passive global index!

    Yup, not easy investing ... Oh I almost forgot .... Happy 10th birthday to the Bull, at least for S&P500 ... it hit the bear low back in 9 Mar 2009.
