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. One way for investment gains to beat lifetime of earned income is to FIRE or RE. LOL!

    1. Lol! I think that's the case for me.

      More of being a terrible employee rather than a genius investor! 🤣


      Based on data point of one (wifey), for average wage earner ... salary beats investing gains in the medium term (10-20 yrs). But in the longer term (>25 or 30 yrs) investing gains tends to beat total salary earned.

      Provided one is reasonably diversified & doesn't lose bxlls during bear markets.

      Doesn't apply to high income earners like C-execs of MNCs, top property salespeople, successful entrepreneurs etc.

      Even so, almost none of these high earners will keep their millions in FDs or CPF or savings accounts. They'll still "invest" 50% or more of it, even if it's simply buy & hold a few GCBs.
