The election is over. The results were both exciting, disappointing and exhilarating!
First, a GRC is won by an opposition team after the system was put in place for many years. GRC is meant to promote multi-racial leadership but somehow it is also used to limit alternative parties' participation. I prefer to use alternative parties rather than opposition parties. Opposition just sounds so negative. Yet, on 8 May 2011, WP has made history by winning the first GRC from incumbent party. A big salute to them. At the same time, I sincerely hope that this is not a gamble for WP. It involves the lives of the entire constitutency and the faith of WP's supporters in WP being a responsible party to improve lives for fellow Singaporeans. Their report card will be out after 5 years and we shall know if their supporters will live and repent. Let's all hope that our faith and support in WP will be a good investment!
"Investing and gambling are both games of chance. " This is quoted from an advertisement on investing workshop. How often are we able to invest wisely, rather to gamble with a stroke of luck? With our raising cost of living, it is good to have a second source of passive income. The stock market seems an attractive place to earn that second source of income. However, it is also a dangerous place if the investor does not have the right understanding of the stocks that they are investing in. I learnt my lesson in 2007 when I followed in stock investment blindly. Till now, I'm still stuck with the two stocks and they have devalued greatly that I have hardly any hope that I can recoup my losses.
Yet I am still tempted to this very day to try investing again. Where else am I able to grow my retirement nest? I wanted to earn a honest living by getting home based job online. The harsh reality is that most of them are scams that hoaxed my hard-earned money. These people are downright despicable. Thus with only myself to trust, I should get the proper education and knowledge of investment in stocks. Only then, with additional luck and hearsay, I hope I can get a decent second souce of income.
