Another fantastic buy! Don't say AK bo jio! (Buy potato chips or blue chips when marked down.)

Wednesday, August 3, 2016

UPDATE (7 SEP 17):
I simply love dark chocolate.



Made in Belgium.

It is super smooth and tastes soooo good.


Price: $1.00 per bar

Yup. This makes it taste even better!

Where to get this? 

Scroll to the end of this blog for the address.

Don't say AK bo jio. 




----------
Many know that I have a weakness for chocolates and ice cream. Without chocolates and ice cream, I think life is not worth living. To me, they are like an essential food group.

There is something else that I like but not to as big a degree. Potato chips. Specifically, Pringles potato chips.

Some might remember how I would eat Pringles potato chips with baked beans, eating them like horderves.

OK, if you must be very French about it, hors d'oeuvre). 


As I have been avoiding beans in my diet in recent months, I eat potato chips with fried eggs or tuna flakes these days. Yup horderves again.

When I went to Japan for vacations, I would buy their Pringles potato chips because they taste better than the ones we have here. The texture is smoother and the taste is less salty.

They are also available here in Isetan, Meidi-ya and some specialty shops but they are pretty pricey, as you can imagine.

Recently, however, I discovered that I could buy them really cheaply somewhere in Singapore and what did I do?










Price?

50 cents per can.  


Really?

Really!


Not joking?

Nope.


Where to buy this?


They are selling fast and I am wondering if I should buy more.

If you want to get some, better be fast hands, fast legs. OK, you better be faster than AK.


What? Where exactly in Bedok?

Er...


OK, I tell you (reluctantly):




Don't say AK bo jio.

Motivations and methods in investing (Part 2).

Hi AK,

I am a 38years old male and have been following your blog since the start of the year.

Firstly, i must say i am truely inspired by your example and most importantly enlightened on the need for passive income for people like us in SG so armed with a little warchest of $50K i have picked up a number of stocks based on your advice on your blog.

Acromec - Entry price : 0.3
Capitaland - Entry price : 2.9
China Aviation oil - Entry price : 0.835
AIMS Amp - Entry price : 1.3
Sheng Siong - Entry price : 0.86
Venture - Entry price : 8.35
Singapore O & G : Entry price : 0.8

My problem is i do not have an exit plan. Based on current situation, should i take profit and sell  off some of the stocks? I do find a few of them overpriced at the moment like O & G.

Hope to hear your advice soon!

Thanks in advance!
 
Cheers
Y



Hi Y,

Alamak. I don't give advice. I am just talking to myself.

So, I say to myself:

"Always question what was your motivation for buying into a certain stock. If it is for income, then, price movements should not matter as long as the fundamentals are intact and it is bringing home the bacon. Of course, if you could find a better income stock than the one you have and if funds are limited, liquidating and moving your funds makes sense. Money should go to where it is treated best.

"If you are investing in something because you feel that it is undervalued and that its price should be higher, then, you probably have an idea of its intrinsic value. You could then sell if you find that your investments are now trading at prices above their intrinsic values."

Best wishes,
AK
