Hi. Option B should be more crucial in comparison. High div stocks like banks and reits are cornerstone for long term investment. That will ensure stable and regular dividend even when you are retired from work. Nevertheless keep a small portion like 10-20% of your investment portfolio for option A to leverage on the volatility of certain reputable counters. Cheers. [Smile] [Smile]
In Investing, Would You Rather Build Skills or Take the Easy Route?
Recently, a programmer in Singapore shared his experience online after calling an electrician. The repair took just 40 minutes but cost him S$300, which translates to S$450 per hour. But look closer, high hourly pay ≠ high income. From an investing perspective, this looks a lot like high-volatility assets. Would you choose: A. To upskill yourself and take on side gigs? In investing: sharpen stock-picking ability to capture high-return stocks. B. To stick with your main job and easy way to get stable income? In investing: add high-dividend stocks, and reinvest dividends.
