When I follow dividends, I can rely on free cash flow which explains how much money is left for expansion or shareholder's pockets. <br /><br />Most growth metrics rely on trends for the past few years and i don't seem to be able to consistently score with them. <br /><br />Anyway, by 2012, I should have budget to invest in trends, should attend some courses then.<br /><br />RegardsChristopher Ng Wai Chunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15534057160494859977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17478547.post-82621042448557188762009-12-12T01:25:28.692+08:002009-12-12T01:25:28.692+08:00ghchua,

Its matter of finding such gems. Moreover, one should look to the US stock markets, an abundance of huge opportunities abound.....a once in a lifetime opportunity as it were...stocks with good fundamentals tied in to BRIC......the next monstrous growths!

Ultimately, you live your own life and nobody shall dictate how you would like to live your life.<br /><br />Simple life. Simple hobbies. Simple pleasures. I enjoy my simple life, away from the limelight. Although my pay is not high, I invest prudently and enjoy contributing some of my excess funds every month to the charities that I supported. I am happy as who I am and I am sure you too with your simple life.<br /><br />It doesn't mean that having high income and spending for pleasures will make one more happy. High income comes with high stress and long hours at work. It is a tradeoff. <br /><br />Enjoy your simple life! :)ghchuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475913934410840352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17478547.post-18316879087380684402009-12-10T21:10:00.805+08:002009-12-10T21:10:00.805+08:00Jason,

Some light will be shed on my portfolio then.<br /><br />But I think so long as some people stick to investing for dividends and manage to save some money, it should not be all that hard to do better than me.<br /><br />RegardsChristopher Ng Wai Chunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15534057160494859977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17478547.post-75065902734395626422009-12-10T20:53:57.924+08:002009-12-10T20:53:57.924+08:00hey chris, went through the 21 pages on CNA forum....hey chris, went through the 21 pages on CNA forum.....good grief, Huathuatbabe does have quite some pent up rage!Quite serious issues with the name calling etc.<br />Anyways, keep it up!<br />You might probably also give some details of your portfolio in terms of cost, capital injections etc of how you arrived at $250kjasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520000867803681070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17478547.post-35037786807271582952009-12-10T09:17:09.586+08:002009-12-10T09:17:09.586+08:00Thanks for the support man !Thanks for the support man !Christopher Ng Wai Chunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15534057160494859977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17478547.post-50022498679487431932009-12-10T08:36:11.572+08:002009-12-10T08:36:11.572+08:00quote: "If someone who is not a career high-f...quote: "If someone who is not a career high-flyer can generate dividends to cover living expenses. Welfare is not only possible, it can be paid even while you have a job. Singapore's low tax rates and single tier dividends taxation allows investor a chance to buy freedom from the need to remain employed. This means that if one can sustain himself indefinitely, he may be able to demand better treatment from his employers or even buy time to take a political stand. $2,000 a month is a small figure but consider how difficult it would be to get the government to give you $2,000 in this country. Someone has shown that this is possible in this little red dot."<br /><br />I agree with this completely, Chris. I have always called the housing loan (if not the entire economic system), a modern form of slavery. <br /><br />I wonder why people are so upset when you have found a way out of this slavery. I would have hailed you are a liberator of the people, and all that without a bloodshed. As far as I'm concerned if some of these people refuses the liberty you have shown them, that's their problem. After all, Jesus Christ is pretty misunderstood too. :P<br /><br />- PoonXizor2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/07885825485100796837noreply@blogger.com
