Thanks for your comments everyone. Neo, you are spot on and we need to develop our own investment style taking into account each person’s different level of comfort for risk, unique physchological make-up and so on.

Kuanhoong, I know it is hard to understand but maybe look at it this way. We are all going to leave this world one day and the bible says that “naked as we come from our mother’s womb, naked we shall depart”. Many of us spend time accumulating wealth throughout our lives. But I think you realize that when we go we can’t take any of that with us when we go.

All investment books teach you how to accumulate more and how to maximize your returns. If you consider this to be the ultimate wisdom, I’m sure you will realize at some point in your life how futile such thinking is. That’s why we need a much higher source of wisdom that looks even beyond long term investment

It is important to learn from great people like Warren Buffet about investment strategies. However, the market has changed dramatically and so do the strategies.

I believe it is also increasingly important to develop your own style of investment which you have shared with us your views of strategies.

Good writing indeed!
