Hi Sun233, thanks so much for sharing the attachment with me, greatly appreciated :) I fully agreeded on the point whereby the rich don' t work for money, while I' m still far far away from being rich I can appreciate this message becos I was a bankers for number of years with quite satisfying income however I was sick n tired of being given targets to meet becos I' m more more a technical guy than sales person n one day I decided to end my career with the bank. 

I started my value investment career after reading a first book of the said subject n decided to become a full time investor. In order to minimize my operating cost (self maintenance cost) I choose to come to prc, one of the small city with living expenses just one fifth of sg. However when Im here n started working on value investment, I realized things are not so simple as I thought becos what I learned from school are way inadequate to performance value investment. 

At the beginning I lost quite a lot of money in stock, I have to pressed on becos firstly this is really something which I' m interested in n I have already come so far, there is no turning back. Thus I started reading more n more about value investment, nevertheless I still continue to made mistake n lose money, however every mistake made I gain more insight into value investment n experience were accumulated from it (I have at least made few hundred mistakes, I have lost count of it). The first three years were the most difficult year becos whenever I lose money it rock my confident n I always get negative comment from parents, relatives n friends telling me to give up n get back a job with the banks.

I began to see light from the tunnel starting from year 4 onward. The number of mistakes I made is getting lesser n lesser n most importantly I began to generate consistent income from value investment n now my parents no longer ask me come back becos they also see my progress..it is never easy to be alone (my dog from sg came with me :) ) n far away from parents n friends. Everyday I stuck my head in a pool of research for at least 12-15 hours, if it is not becos of my great interest I  would never have persisted on. Thus, I consider myself lucky to have the opportunity to do something that I liked in life. Not many ppl are as lucky as me.

when I came to sj, the discussion going around are very similar to what I have did before during the early stage of my value investment process. Example, focussing attention on information from media, macro factors, daily monitoring of share price n etc. I can also understand the fear involved when things are not in our direction, I have been through all these. Thus I hope to share information n experience to ppl who does not have the luxury n opportunity like me to focus full time to drill into different valuation method. More importantly, if the knowledge that I have acquired can be of useful to more ppl, more stray dogs n cats will be helped too (I believe everyone of us is kind in nature). Thus I do carry motives in sj, they are sharing of knowledge n experience plus promoting donation n help to  the strays.
