A blast from the past: Singapore blue chips or S-REITs?

I have been blogging for close to three years and looking back, I was a rather prolific blogger. Over the weekend, I read some of my older blog posts and found one which I have almost totally forgotten about.

Those were the days when S-REITs were largely unloved and shunned. Written in the first year of my blog's creation, to anyone who would listen, it was an effort to show that S-REITs could be great investments too.

Readers from my blog's early days might or might not remember this blog post but, I believe, all readers could benefit from the blog post as a reminder for us not to be bigots. It is a reminder to myself as well as I find that I have an increasing propensity to become mired in mental mud as I grow older. Feel the same way?

Three point turn!

This weekend, I am going to leave you with a very short blog post. Nothing original but sometimes, we need a few reminders, don't we?

Man is created in the image and likeness of God but there is nothing Godly about Man.

So, here are the three points which could turn our lives (for the better):

1.  We only need so much money in life. The rest is for showing off.

2.  Keep our needs simple and our wants few. We will have less money problems that way.

3.  Know what and who matter to us. Don't waste time and money on others.

True or not?





I hope we are all truly happier individuals over time. Have a good weekend, everybody.
