I was listening to Gretchen Rubin’s podcast recently and was intrigued by how she brings certain perception out which makes people think. For those who are not familiar with who she is, Gretchen is an author and researcher for psychological behaviour in her pursuit of finding optimal happiness either in marriage, family, solidarity and any point…

You might have recalled I re-initiated a position back in Vicom just last month (See here) so when someone alerted me today that they were revising their fees I was interested to look at it. This wasn’t yet officially announced in the sgx announcement so some vested shareholders might miss the news. New revised fees…

I initiated another small position im another developer, this time Ho Bee Land for 10,000 shares at $2.51. Some of you may have recalled that I used to own this company in the past (See Here) which I have since divested so it is not a company which I am not unfamiliar. In any case, I…

I know this is a bit random but anyway I just want to share about my experience for my wisdom tooth extraction which may benefit those who wanted to do it. In the past month or so, I have been having gum infection in my right mouth and it is affecting my work,  sleep and…

I received an interesting email today from a reader who surprises me with a very basic yet intriguely mind stimulating question. He asked me what makes a good investment. I had to think a while before replying him and thought it’ll be a good point for discussion.  A good investment in my definition is something…

I haven’t been writing for quite a while so I thought I’ll write an impromptu on something that suddenly came up to my mind.  Have you ever experienced a moment when you feel so passionate about something that you forgot the time? Or have you ever experienced a time when you feel so despair and…

Comfortdelgro hits not only a new 52 weeks low last Friday but also a 3 year low. The last time they hit around this share price was around in Jun 2014. That was right before the contracting model announcement takes place for the public transport. I just did a quick comparison to see how they…

My wife and I recently watched a Japanese documentary at home and we began pondering on why the Japanese, and typically the older generation tend to have a different attitude than the newer generation like ours. Friedrich Nietzsche, one of the famous German philosopher, once said that the most essential thing in human history is that there…
