The one thing you need to do to beat inflation is to stay investing. 

In the past i prefer to buy property, rent out for income, i have income and capital appreciation. However in Singapore not easy to have second proporty, also need maintenance, pay tax, etc. Last year i invested in UK property thru an apps, however due to change in management, I withdrew from it, safety come first 😊. I am more comfortable If the co/broker in Singapore, regulated by MAS. Last year I bought some property related sharesbut i sold it for small gain 😅 $APAC REALTY LIMITED(CLN.SI)$$FIRST REAL ESTATE INV TRUST(AW9U.SI)$

Recently after a tiger friend mentioned $ASCENDAS REAL ESTATE INV TRUST(A17U.SI)$i started to think of all Reits companies, which one give high dividend, diversify to property at different countries, price not so over value. So i bought few counters, surprisingly it started to give me dividend and price increase too, but this time i don't sell, i want to keep it and buy more in future 😊 i still eyeing Ascendas too, wait the dip 😅

Recommend to diversify portfolio not only REITS, buy something according to our pocket, so we have holding power, stay committed in saving, when bad days add more to buy favourite shares on sale, MAS will soon thighten monetary policy again (news out today), we better spend our money wisely. I told my children to save and only spend 10% of their saving for leisure because everything are still provided by parents. If my son turn legal age already, i will advice him to open tiger account too, at the moment i will be his example, to show him how much the earning in 2 years to come, compared to his money in bank 😊

Happy investing [Happy]

    First reit performance is daunting for the past 2 years. even though it's in healthcare.

      as long as it doesn't fold up or privatised at ridiculous price, I can still hold on.

      check out Eagle hospitality trust. it went into bankruptcy within a year.

      I see, due to limited funds, i always buy the lowest and sell when it is higher, and repeat, because system FIFO it look like i cut loss, but i still keep the same number of old lots to wait it up

      Instead of put the money in bank take some to buy bank share, so you get dividend n if the share go up high high also consider as capital appreciation
