On... My Business Model

 Last post , I wrote that trading should be done like you're running a business. If so, what kind of business would I be running?  The business model that I best want to replicate is a casino business ( see this video , if you want to skip the rest of the blog post ). Most people that I talk to, thinks that investing or trading is a form of gambling. Is trading or investing really gambling? This topic is rather divisive and it depends on who you ask. Well if it truly is gambling, I would want to play the part of the casino, because as they say, the house always wins.  How does the casino make money? By having a positive expectancy.  They don't have to make money on every bet, but over large number of bets, the profit has to be bigger than the loss. In terms of trading, my winning percentage is not really that great but as long as the average winners are bigger than the average losers, that is good enough. Year to date for 2021 ( over 133 number of trades ), my winnin...

On... FIRE

Image
FIRE – Financial Independence Retire Early. The popularity of the movement is largely due to the efforts of Mr. Money Moustache. Of course, financial independence and early retirement is nothing new, I have (and many before me) been thinking about financial independence ever since I started working more than 10 years ago. I must admit by just thinking and without concrete actions, I am not there yet with this ‘FIRE’ thing. Mr Money Moustache retired at 30, therefore I’m definitely too old to beat that record. It won’t be possible for me to retire at 30 (although I consider myself semi-retired at this point); realistically financial independence in 15 to 20 years’ time would be a viable target. Financial independence and early retirement can mean a lot of different things to a lot of different people. For me, it would mean paying off our mortgage and to have enough in the nest egg generating passive income. So how much would I need? I would refer to the 25x Rule. Of course, circu...

On... Running a Business

Trade like you're running a business, not like it's a hobby. Because business makes money and hobby costs money.  Well, to be honest, a lot of business don't make money and they go bankrup, but that's not how we want our trading/investing to end. So what is the criteria of running a successful business? To me, three things come to mind. 1.Money, 2.Time and 3.Luck. 1.Money. Every business require money. Capital Expenditure to start the business and Operating Expenditure to keep the business running. So, if we want to run our trading as a business we should be prepared to fork out some capital to get it started and also to expect some monthly expenses to keep our trading business running. Example of Operating Expenditure can be our trading losses. If we're not prepared to take losses, then we can't run our trading as a business. Of course we would like the profit to more than the losses over a long period of time, but in the short term, losses are inevitable.  2.T...
