Why I started and how I grew my portfolio to 6 digit figures as a salaryman in Singapore
Hi all, I am a 30 year old Singaporean engineer who has been working for close to 5 years in Singapore. I first started off investing mainly in stocks and REITS listed on the SGX mainly to generate dividends. But over the years, I have progressed onto the US and HK markets in search of better capital gains so that I would be able to achieve F.I.R.E (Short form for Financial Independence, Retire Early) earlier to escape the rat race. This blog is to document my progress as an investor, allowing me to keep track of my investments, my lessons learnt throughout my investment journey, and also to document my research for my highest conviction stocks (like potential multi-baggers). My investment philosophy is mainly to find 1. Stocks that have an asymmetrical risk reward 2. Stocks that have multi-bagger potential 3. Stocks that have not reached mature growth status, meaning there is room for growth 4. Stocks that have optionality The platforms/ brokerages I use are mainly Standard Chartere
