Latio2005A Turbocharged November 7, 2011 Share November 7, 2011 (edited) yeah, why do we see unknown people coming up to give talks and claiming to be able to teach others to become rich? We do not see people like kwek leng beng or wee cho yaw or peter lim giving or anyone from top 40 list of s'pore giving talks, either free or otherwise. the reason is clear, i think. By saying someone is vested, I mean he is in the money or in some ways related to the company. If he is in the money, would like to know his return to date. If he is related even remotely, I can understand the position. If he is not, he is not in the good position to say the business is good. For me, I am not vested. I commented becos I havefriends who are stucked Oops sorry not replying to you. Apologies to Jamessoh. Clear enough ? I am not spoiling for fight. This is also not related to the politic example.

Acemundo Supercharged November 7, 2011 Share November 7, 2011 I may be right, or may be wrong. I would like to meet you to clarify If or if not you are vested. For me, I have 3 good but goondu friends who are stuck with some investments, no need to go into details which. I know. They are prepared to come fwd to ask abt the so- called high and guaranteed return. They can't even dispose the purchase. The socalled good products. you got friend that stuck with the product. i got friends that makes good profits from those investments. so what gives? what i am trying to say is it is not a scam because someone who invested got stuck. your friend may have relied on the wrong consultant. in any type of investment, you need to know what type of time horizon you are looking at. in this case, either your fried's consultant didn't warn him or your friend may have a hazy idea. but these 2 alone does not make an investment a con job Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acemundo Supercharged November 7, 2011 Share November 7, 2011 (edited) Did I say anywhere the word scam? so what is the problem with business having high margins which was the first line of reasoning you used and subsquently attracted you to rebut with a "vested" comment on me when i say high margin is only to be expected of businesses Edited November 7, 2011 by Acemundo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latio2005A Turbocharged November 7, 2011 Share November 7, 2011 (edited) M']Do you have prob with the word vested? I have explained my pts wrt it. And what is the prob when I said I would not consider such products? I dun need anyone to come and explain to me your views. I said one need to do more research and understand the products, nothing wrong rite? If anybody comes and tell me high % return, I will first look at the risk. It works both ways, correct? You can make and along the sane spectrum you can lose the same quantum or even more. No free lunch. And for the record, I didn't condemn and I didn't say scam. So dun put words into my mouth.

Ithunk 1st Gear November 7, 2011 Share November 7, 2011 recently an article caught my attention. this man by the name of "David Yuen" who advertised frequently in the newspapers advising people to follow his lucurative footsteps. he is said to own more than 100 properties generating 400m in rental each month. are these people really real? or just waiting to be uncovered like "Clement Chiang" who was a self professed options trading expert and then turned out to be false? does anyone have any real life experience to share? if ppl are really successful at forex they would not be teaching forex in the first place and will be using their time to trade do you see george soros teaching forex?

Fully agree with u. I hv invested in properties, equities, bonds, trusts, and still in the market. I also run a reasonably successful biz for subsistence. Based on the above, maybe I can start to con people's money by conducting courses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So dun put words into my mouth. yes i have a problem with the word vested being used on me. it suggests i am not being objective. your argument of high profitability rendering it a doubtful business would instead put yourself as not being objective but you did not want to answer to the question posed.

Duckduck Turbocharged July 9, 2013 Share July 9, 2013 MS report issued 8 July 2013: Residential: Following seven (and a half) rounds of cooling measures in this four-year upcycle, the government is increasingly focused on restricting the supply of land to developers and credit to buyers. We see a 5% p.a. decline in prices from 2014 as private vacancies rise. :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
