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!

Read? 3 Reasons Why Keppel Corp is Unsuitable as a Dividend Stock


Patchy track record of dividend payments

A hallmark of a good dividend stock is the consistency of dividend payments.

Unfortunately, Keppel Corporation’s dividend history has been patchy as the conglomerate was badly impacted by the oil and gas bust back in 2014.


Wah. Chun bo???

That why long-term Investing is always personal investing. It is always about you and your long-term annualized return! 

One man's investing return is another man's poison!

All investment returns are judged on hindsight after Point X

Ask those senior citizens who are still holding Keppel Corp.

  1. Heheh Uncle8888,

    It very much depends on the price one gets into a stock & how much one buys at that price.

    The psychology is very different for someone who bought $100K worth during 1998 versus someone thinking about buying today.

    Even for those who bought 20 years ago, it also depends very much on what is the purpose going forward.

    Those who still want to maximise growth will have different objectives from those who are happy with multi-bagger freehold & simply coasting with big daddy as backstop! LOL!

    To avoid anchoring and/or endowment biases, it's also good to practice "zero-based investing" i.e. imagine if your entire portfolio got liquidated overnight into 100% cash.

    Would you buy back any of your stocks at current prices & foreseeable prospects? ;)

  2. I never really like a stock that has link to 'black gold' (oil). Too volatile for my weak heart. LOL.
