New milestone: 600k pot
Opened the app and saw 599, camped for a while and I’m looking at 6xx for the first time in my life on this app. I’m trying to contain my happiness while commuting home on MRT. I am no genius and I simply got lucky. Reminder to self that it’s just paper gains and this could be temporary. But st

Sep26 stocks report
Topped up 8k in capital, profit 36k +6.8%. Pretty happy with the performance considering I didn’t have much gains from the past 3 months from June to August. So far YTD gain is 41% exceeding NASDAQ by at least triple but what surprised me was STI lol. STI is doing really well this year. Last 3

Aug26 stocks report
This is very delayed and I don’t feel like recapping already lol. Was rather busy in Aug especially the last part. Things I did - rebalanced my 1 chip stock to a newly added memory ETF - bought some META and 🚀 Topline wise, Aug looks so uneventful. All these for a mere +6k (1%) lol but I’

Jul26 stocks report card
Was originally 8% down if not for the last 2 days. Still a 27% gain YTD. I started putting in money this month and that’s mainly to buy the speculative sector. So far it’s still in the red. My prediction for Aug is +5% and then -7~8% in Sep then rally in Oct again, lets see.

What it takes for me to hit $2mil in 5 years from now on
I want to fast forward my retirement. I don’t want to wait to 45. I might want to do it in 5 years. Is it impossible? I want to retire with $2mil f u money to quit corporate anytime. Apparently, I need to hit 23% annual ROI with 5k monthly contribution. 5k is fine (if I’m not retrenched) but

Jun26 stocks report card & mid year review
Jun done 😮‍💨 What a month of volatility lol. At one point I was down 50k and I ended the month with -12k, honestly not too bad 🤣 Overall I am still +145k for the 1st half. I don’t have high expectations for the 2nd half, but I am hoping for the year to end with a net +200k so 55k to go. It shoul

A rare +4% day 🙂
Like what the actual f is happening today lol why suddenly rallying. As my portfolio gets bigger and more diversified, it rare to see such rallies. And what I am happy about is that it’s finally not the chips carrying the rally, it’s my software & space stocks. 1 more market open to Jun end!

New milestone: YTD 2026 > 5 years ROI from 2020-2025
I just noticed this today and no wonder the 8th wonder of the world is compounding. It really gets running when you have more than $300k. Hopefully the compounding speeds up, need to stop being corporate slave and gtfo. So done with the endless taichis of incompetent people, why are they drawing sa

May26 stocks report card
Overall a good month though I’m beating myself up for making that 1 bad trade (-19k) and took away a big lesson. One of my chips stock really took off in May and the cs stock also rallied due to FORT earnings and maybe sentiments of saspocalypse changing. NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE. I am just a corpo

New milestone: 500k unlocked!
Broke the 400k milestone in mid Jan and happy to break the 500k in May, 4 months later (+21k capital in between). Could’ve been even more if not for my poor decisions, fk me. Lesson learnt: do not sell cc on stocks you want to own long term. Praying for some corrections soon to minimise my

Reminder to self:don’t play covered calls forever😡
Could have hit 480+k if not for that 1 covered call. So upset with myself. I’m fine dealing with paper loss for the puts I sold but not the calls the sold. Damn, no more covered calls for stocks I am unwilling to sell. I mean technically I was ok to sell at the strike price but it has climbed way b

Return = capital new milestone🥹
It’s probably abit toxic of me to keep monitoring like a hawk on my portfolio but I’m so desperate to not be a corporate slave man. Trying to balance greed, patience and returns expectation. Touching the portfolio so much vs last yr makes me think if I’m overdoing things. Anyways portfolio hit

New milestone unlocked - 200k gains🥳
Dk if will crash again but celebrate first! Started this 6 years ago and came such a long way. First 2 years, got lucky with some stocks and learnt my lesson for some. Did nothing for 1.5 years which was an even more expensive lesson. And finally got serious from end 2023. It has been 2.5 years

Wah Feb was pretty painful man. Just look at the volatility. First 3 days in, I was down almost 40k and then it has been rocky since. I thought i would end Feb not so bad but I was still down 32k in the end. During Feb I bought some NVD at 172$ and then sold at 193$ before earnings cos learning fro
