How to switch career path to investment sector?

Hi chickenking,

I suggest that you talk to a financial advisor who can advise you based on your personal risk appetite and financial situation. 

 

Hi Stevento,

1. REIT really offers annual payout of 6-10%? Will the value drop alot if economy is bearish?


2. Commercial Property like Redev - where can i find such things?

3. Oil/Gas Working Interest - also can advise me where to find it?

4. Landbanking - heard of, but currently don't have >10k yet.

So fellow friends in this forum, i can save 1k per month, so what is my next step, I intending to buy REIT, is it ok?


Hope someone can answer my above question. THANKS.....

 

This is the first time I heard boss asking employee to trade shares for him, though I know many are trading during office hours also.

 

If your tip results in a "cheong arhh" windfall for him...

Then the Boss may offer to let you sit next to him... 

 

mani, we know what will happen when result is bad and not too bad and what if the result is far too good like you buy at $3.34 and surge to $5.15 ??? never try before but keen to know.

 

Stock "tips" include when to let go... (cut loss)...

Well... if your own results are not too bad, the Boss will listen to you!... 

 

Pension :  LOL ...that's a good one .... : )

 

my boss is actully my wife. if give wrong tips then sleep on the floor and eat maggie mee.

 

Wah sekali give wrong tips, then how? 

 

Sohguanh... :)

Massage may not be effective unless your skills are really great...


Great stock "tips" is all it takes for fantastic "boss-management" ...  hehehe...

 

Hey, Pension.

That means you are not not pension leh.

But that is a good way to get to trade legally during office hours.

Happy trading!

 

If one loves TA so much, sure you can trade. But maybe mix up your strategy a bit and learn to hold some for long term.

 

 

Don't play down on all penny stocks. 

1. Labroy from 50c to now above $2.32

2. Ezra 80c to now about $6.25

3. FerroChina 30c to now $2.06

Give companies with potential a chance. Every blue chip was a penny stock previously.

 

she asked me to help her to buy and sell share.

 

Pension: I manage my boss so well that she allow me to play share during office hour, can you do that?

Hmmm.... how do you manage? A massage job to soothe her nerves so she dun go and disturb you while you are playing shares? :P

 

I do agree with Farmer. It is not difficult to save up $300K.
If you are starting off at 20-25years old, put aside $1K every month and invest it in
instruments that can give a yield of 10-15%, you could make it by the time you are 40years.
15 years to grow to this sum. "The greatest invention is Compound Interest" by Albert Einstein.



1) To save up to $300k isn't impossible here. One need to be v. discipline in saving and live within your means. Remember the lesson on Compound interest? Applied it constantly on a long term basis and before you realize it, you're there with $300K already.

 

to survive in corporate world, you must know how to manage your boss rather than let your boss manage you.

I manage my boss so well that she allow me to play share during office hour, can you do that?

 

For Soh,

1. REITs (Annualised Returns of 6-10%),

2. Commercial Property like Redev (Annualised Returns of 10-15%) with possibility of capital gain. Bite size ownership investment. Slightly better than REITs


3. Oil/Gas Working Interest (Annualised Returns of 11-18%). Oil and gas fields ownership

4. Landbanking (Annualised Returns of 15-28%). Land ownership programmes.
 

 

Just to mention a few points :

1) To save up to $300k isn't impossible here. One need to be v. discipline in saving and live within your means. Remember the lesson on Compound interest? Applied it constantly on a long term basis and before you realize it, you're there with $300K already. 

2) One need to understand that favouritism is inevitable as long as there's human being involve and it happen everywhere even in our garment's office. The key here is to study your boss first before anything to get in favor with him. If that doesn't work, change dept or job, dun waste your time!

3) Yes, to resign and become a day trader full time isn't an easy decision to be made since market cannot be bullish / active all the time. I think the important thing here is to understand one's own mindset and priorities in life. You're responsible for your own destiny, its your ultimate choice!

 

Pension: my previous company, the lower the cut the lady wear (the thing almost jump out) the faster their promotion.
