Low risk low returns: Government bonds, fixed deposits, Index
funds.
High risk high returns: On paper empty
promises of very high returns eg. double digit
returns annually, but at the end of the contract or period, siao
liao market down, price low and cannot pay. Have to sell at loss or
break even. Don't believe when someone say they can get you 100+%
returns year after year.
Low risk high returns:
Many people think its not possible, but when you ask value
investors whether it is possible. They tell you time after time
that they are buying businesses of this kind.
In this low market, stocks are actually priced cheaper. So it is
a good time to buy. When you are buying things, you want it to be
at a discount and cheap right? I noticed that when it comes to
investments, humans become illogical. You have to know how to differentiate
between value and price. I give you an example of a soft
drink. You know that the value of a soft drink is around $1-$2. But
if i were to sell it to you per drink at $5, would you buy? Many
people in the investment arena are actually buying at this kind of
price and yet dont know the value of the investment. How about if
one day im desperate to sell the same soft drink to you at $0.30?
You have got a good bargain. :D
This example do not only apply in stocks, it applies to all
invesments, be it property, commodities and investment funds.
If you dont intend to put in effort to learn about investments,
i suggest you go buy index funds. Invest long term. Always invest
in what you understand. Cause risk is attributed to something that
you do not understand. Just like driving a car, you know how to
drive, you are in a safer situation than someone who dont know how
to drive.
