S. M. A. R. T. Investing with TSK

I'm a very lazy person when you talk about exercise. Since my early retirement from the corporate world to become a fulltime investor, I've been putting on weight, all at the wrong place you know. I always tell myself I must exercise to stay heathly, cos Health is Wealth! But I always stick to my computer, now worst with this new blogging hobby! So I try to force myself to exercise by signing up for Healthy Lifestyle Brisk Walking with RC. I know this does not help much, but at least I try to exercise and get to meet uncles and aunties in my area - very soon I will be like them! Guess what, I get rewarded for participating! I pay $1 for every session, get a goodie bag of an apple, a bun and a bottle of mineral water. On top of that, I can get a $5 NTUC voucher for every 3 sessions I participated. Wah, Health is really Wealth! So far I only got one $5 NTUC voucher, see how lazy I am!

I'm a long term investor for my shareholdings in NTUC Income. Regardless of bull or bear market, my capital does not depreciate in value cos it is not listed in the stock exchange. It pays good annual dividends between 5% to 8%, depending on performance. 2007 was the top of the bull run, I received the highest dividend payout. On top of this, it rewards me with bonus shares. Each share cost $10. Wah, Best of the Best FD in town! Too bad, I cannot increase my investment in this safe haven cos NTUC puts a max. on shares each policyholder can hold. To exit, I need to give NTUC one year's notice. So you can guess lor, maybe must wait more than one year if you want to buy cos must queue up to wait for people to sell. I will not sell, will you? I'm also a long term shareholder of NTUC Fairprice. Aiyah, this one is chicken feet lah, cost $1 only, max. even lower. Also pays good annual dividends, helps me beat inflation lor.

Welcome to S.M.A.R.T. Investing with TSK, sharing my Big-Picture approach to Investing in the Stock Market and Other Investments. Get the Big-Picture right and the Big Profits will follow. Investing smart in this market beats reacting to it. I hope some day, some smart investor will take my blog private for their sole benefit, lol! Dare to dream, dare to be different! Crisis is Opportunity. Volatility is Opportunity. Since October 2007 when the bear market started, people have been looking for a market bottom. However with this bear market which might run from 4-7 years or more, a bottom might not be the bottom yet. To adopt a buy and hold strategy no longer works without accurate timing. So to make money from such opportunities, I need a good market timing tool to determine when to enter/exit my investments. I use Stock Market Astrology/Fengshui combined with reliable Technical Analysis to forecast the future market direction which helps me Beat the Market with 80% accuracy. “Milliona...

I only need to test to confirm the accuracy and reliability of their forecasts and information ( see my success stories ), and bingo! I got a Crystal Ball with 80% accuracy!
