What happened to $384 in 2015?

Friday, April 19, 2024

Almost 9 years ago, I blogged about how I saved $384 on solar powered lights for my planter.


Then, quite unexpectedly, someone asked me on YouTube how were those lights doing?

Well, they are still working!

I took a photo of them last night and here it is:






I used to blog about saving money very frequently back in those days.

These days, I am taking it easy.

I am less tight fisted with money now.

However, this does not mean that I am frivolous with money.

I would still wonder if something is worth buying, if it is value for money?

Hard to unlearn some things.


However, if it isn't an amount that would break the piggy bank, like a few dollars, I would just close an eye.

Anyway, if you are new to my blog, this was the blog post back in 2015:
Saving $384 on solar powered lights is $384 earned!

I remember reading an article about Jim Rogers persuading his wife not to buy a new sofa in his younger days and to invest the money instead.

They later bought a new sofa with money made from the money they didn't spend on a new sofa earlier.

Interesting!

If AK can do it, so can you!

Some stocks do nothing for us!

Monday, April 15, 2024

I shared a photo of one my favorite ships in World of Warships in a video yesterday. 


Bismark is a ship I enjoy a lot and I have had many hours of fun playing it. 

There are some ships I have which are really beautiful to look at. 

Unfortunately, that is the only thing I find them good for. 

They are not fun to play, for various reasons. :( 

It is just like investing in stocks. 

Some stocks, we might think they are undervalued and good to invest in. 

However, they do nothing for us in terms of dividends. 

They don't even give us peace of mind. 

One starting with the letter "T" comes to mind. 

Bad AK! Bad AK! ;p 




The names of the "only nice to look at" ships below, for those who are wondering: 



Cherbourg, a French cruiser.



Gneisenau, a German battleship.



Loyang, a Chinese destroyer.
