The last time,how many lots of capitaland did u buy at 1.70?

make sure this time u buy up 100 lots.This way u make more and can do the shouting at the pub.

This 3k a month....is it NET or it has to deduct off expenses like agent fees,repairs and maint.,taxes,overdraft int and depreciation?

Expert calculated that the  returns of properties is about 3 to 4 % a year.Slightly better than FD.

AND......most interesting of all findings.......that over a 20 year period,the capital appreciation of real estate is only about 1 to 2 %.

This is because over the 20 year period,there are fall and rise of property px.

Of course here we talk of properties over a broad range.There could be instances where a person just hit jackpot by buying at the ritr place and at the rite time.For example,en bloc sale.

Finally,ppl talk about rental.There are many problems with tenants as we read from the papers.

Some tenants can gif u hell.

Depending on the current condition/state it is in , might do some minor repairs ,refurbish etc.and let it out for rent . Could easily fetch around $3000 per month. As pointed out by EastonBay, $30k per annum is a luxury in Singapore . Its like another person in the household bringing in a monthly salary of $3000. On top of that the property is yours, period.Your money is locked away. I would treat it like my children's property. I am just the custodian . Cash in hand (or bank/ FD) might be tempting to spend. Unlike, say shares, funds management , where u are at the mercy of ups and down , ur property is solid on the ground. Won't bother me if the property price goes up or down.We have a solid asset here. Maybe a bit old fashioned , but Old is Gold ! Of course lah, can use the rent money to play play some shares ..hahaha...! ...sigh....hahaha ! (so, ultrameg , when can I expect the demand draft for a million pounds ? ; ) hahaha

The US $ will never crash, and the US is too big to fail..how to fail when you are all over the world.

And no depression, cause the $ is not back by gold...unless they run out of paper and ink...can they?

You will  really get depression and need to see your doctor if you see your stock soar 3 to 4 time one year from now...you better buy slowly from now...

imagine if you want  trillion dollar bailout back by gold, then you have a depression longer than 1929...where to find so much gold? But do see gold and dow rally side by side...all inflation adjusted.

5 to 6 years from now will we be surprise to see a dow of 36000 and gold 5000 per oz..$300 oil..

yes this is my headache now.. i not sure where to put to protect my money. i intend to set aside 20% of my networth to something very safe. buy gold is a choice by Gold also peg to dollar. haha. headache. 

I am thinking of buying a land for retirement where i can grow my own foods and sell food crops. for a living.

160K can double in a short time.

Hypothetically...Choose a good stock eg SPC and buy it @1.90 then lock it up. For what you know, it may double or better in two years.

But to achieve greater profit efficiency, leverage (eg. in fx, is a must, but risk is proportionately increased.

Fx cam make you a million in no time...

May be you can save that single soul by pushing your gene book if and when he ask for help on reading materials from this forum. This way you save many more souls by listening to your sales pitch everyday for a few times. This repetitive pattern of posting is almost spamming this good site and making it into a cheap place for ebook salesman to advertise their products. It also gives the impression that you are either very old and getting senile or forgot to take your pills... :))
