When one talk div yield of 5% often forget what is it based off? Current price or one's cost price?

Current yield for a SG blue chip riet at 5% based on current price is easily 6-7% if one's base price is bought a few months earlier.

Yeah, more importantly the writer of the article, does he have $5mil investible?

Like so many Internet gurus, ownself havent retire, want to teach people how to retire.  Ownself not real millionaire, want to teach people how to be millionaire.

Ownself cant check ownself, yet want to talk until as if can.   

heh heh

OK I correct myself a bit after i read the article.

The writer was responding to a goondu asking for 3% returns, so he gave 4% instead. 

In this case i wont blame writer.   got ask got answer

it is obvious that those in the know, know that these people just wanna con. selling knowledge or teaching... please. if one has the secret recipe, why tell others. ownself make the money and keep quiet. it is like if banks know the fullproof way of making lots, wont they just borrow money and do it. still want to waste time loan money out to small timers and do retail for what?

Some banks did with proprietary tradings and of course eventually got into trouble. Those western banks which I don't touch whether their shares or bonds.

FH is a good writer lah. 
My friends who work in finance, also read his articles for perspective. 

Of course if u have lots of know how yourself, then maybe u find it superfluous lor.

Afterall it's like watching a cooking recipe video, when u are already your own chef already.

yield should be based on "current price" ?

because if there is better investment, we can liquidate and invest on higher yields

if based on cost price, imagine a stock is purchased 10 years ago, and now paying shitty yield like 1% (current price)

is it still assume sibei high yield investment based on purchase price 10 years ago?😉

Most people who blog for long periods are usually those who write down stuff as a record, or to clarify their own thinking as they write.
Of course there are those who use it to drum up some credibility to their own profession, like financial advisor or what.

If there's no value for them, then they won't do it long term.
Most people who write all these will never reach a level to monetize it.

he can liquidate the entire holdings and invest in better returns ma ... 😉 

 

 

I understand what both of you are saying and would concur with both.  just depends on the circumstances on hand and which perspective you looking from to make the next decision

Green for a few days already. China let go a small bazooka to stimulate the economy. Something I bought a few weeks ago as a result went up more than 10%.
