Are You Playing Trick Or Treat With Your Investment?

Halloween is just around the corner, are you getting yourself ready to enjoy the spooky night party or trick-or-treat game by the kiddos? Personally, I am not that into this Ang Moh ghost festival but don't mind watching one or two horror/ghost movie(s) during this festive season.

 

Talking about Trick-Or-Treat game, are you playing it with your investment portfolio? Don't understand what I meant? Allow me to explain further....

 

You are TREATING your investment if you are...

1. Reviewing your investment portfolio/strategy on regular basis and making the necessary adjustment, if deemed fit (minimally quarterly) ;

 

2. Constantly learning/improving your Personal Finance knowledge/skills by reading and attending relevant courses/seminars ;

 

3. Detaching your emotion with the market sentiments, as far as possible (this will allow you to sleep better at nights) ;

 

4. Always keeping a sum of war chest on standby - opportunities knock on the door of those who are READY ;-)

 

On the other hand, you are TRICKING your investment if you are...

Doing the opposite of the above ;-)

 

So, wanna play TRICK-OR-TREAT? HoooHoooHooo... wait, why I sounded like Santa Claus? lol

 

Cheers!
