Nope but I have had a few chit chat sessions with readers this year. I might organise a few again next year. wink emoticon - Assi AK
I will usually blog about such chit chat sessions if I do organise them. So, keep a look out. wink emoticonI have avoided unit trusts for a long, long time.
If you do not wish to pick stocks but would like to invest in a basket of stocks, you could consider ETFs. - Assi AK
Well, you might want to take full advantage of my blog. Use the "Search" function and it is free of charge. smile emoticon - Assi AK
Finally, I don't give advice.
I am just talking to myself.
You have to decide what is best for you. smile emoticon
- Assi AK
OK, I am going to give you some work to do. Go to my blog, go to the top, use the 'SEARCH ASSI' box and type "bonds". wink emoticon
It is a big topic.

If you want to do what I am doing, you have to remember that it took me 20 years to get to where I am today.
It was a long journey.
I did some trading along the way. I consistently invested for income along the way.

You need to decide how much of your money is definitely untouchable.
You should not use money you might need in short notice for investing
Then, whatever money you feel you might not need in the next 5 years, you can invest
Don't be too adventurous. Invest in strong companies.
They must also pay regular dividends.
Since you want some income from your investment.

Kudos to you AK. You are one of the most patient educator I have encountered. I hope more people can develop critical thinking and take ownership of their decision. I am working very hard to inculcate these skills in my children. ;-p
Hi Siew Mun,
I must be in the right mood too. ;p
I don't know if I said this before but your children are a lucky bunch! :)
Wow AK i am amazed at the level of your patience... :O
Strange chap..... If he thinks he's only 2-3 years left, then there's no need to invest..... I'd advise him to spend if he's no family or buy term insurance if he's married....
AK is indeed patient
Hi EDP,
I try to be. :)
There are, however, some people whom I have stopped being patient with. There are also a few whom I have chosen to ignore. I am only human (and lazy). ;p
Hi Julian,
I think the reader has many more years left. Probably just being pessimistic.
The in and out of hospital referred to was for a family member who needs care.
All of us have different circumstances and some might need more help than others. I try to remind myself of this all the time. I don't always do a good job but I try.
I think it's okay to ask for investing ideas but If one does not even want to help himself, how to expect others to feed him.
He wants the easy way out lah..
AK I believe you receive tons of mails everyday, jia you and thanks for always replying! :D
Hi Jing Quan,
Yes, we must be independent and it doesn't just apply to investment decisions.
I am glad to share what little I know but readers have to remember that I am not infallible and they should not depend on me. -.-"
Thank you for the encouragement. :)
Reader:
Being open-minded can be really tough sometimes. Anyway, I start to learn
how this risk free investment works. I am quite excited now. I need to
learn a lot, I still have a long way to go. 真的非常希望有机会和你交流,我还在学习,希望从投资的角度听听你的观点。也很想把这个机会介绍给你。毕竟我从你那里学到了很多。反正这个机会没有风险,这正是我们都在寻找的呀!
我的英文太烂,不知你能否看懂。
任何一个投资都是不可能用简单的几句话来表达。
那我试试讲几点:
1. 不需要本金
2. 学习健康管理的理念
3. 使用产品,都是日常生活用品,如牙膏,洗衣粉,净水器,空气净化器,营养素等。
4. 如果你觉得这些产品质量好,推荐给朋友
5. 继续下去
6 . 你可以拿到奖金
我觉得毫无风险,只要这个人有健康管理的理念,喜欢和朋友分享就可以了。
不会强求别人做什么事情,只是寻找相同生活理念的人。
当然我还在了解,这个月有一下大型的研讨交流会,我准备在去听听。

AK:
We could get confused on what is an investment and what is not.
This sounds like a marketing job. You get paid if your friends use the products you recommend. This isn't an investment opportunity. It's a job.
