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!

It is about 75% cash flow return on current level of War Chest over the next 4 years!

Hmm ... market crash over the next 2 to 3 years should help to narrow down this Gap!

  1. CW,

    I think you too free or too bored...

    If you want to go to the realm of opportunity costs, might as well calculate how much more of the missing (illusion) wealth you could have added to your war chest by SELLING near the top for Keppel and DBS...

    Calculate how much you need to make-up over the next 4 years for these monies left on the table!?


    Why stop there?

    Can also calculate if you had taken 2 bites of the cherry and upgraded to condo and now dowgraded back to HDB 4 room, how much you existing HDB 4 room has to appreciate to "make-up" the illusory opportunity costs? LOL!


    Over thinking in opportunity costs is one quick way to the mad house!


    Goals and plans are uselsess?

    Yes, if they are like the ladder leaning against the wrong wall...
