MARKET INVESTMENT IT'S SIMPLE

The recent global financial crisis shook many people’s belief in shares. Some people, battered and bruised by the experience, have sworn off the stock market for life. Sure, they made some mistakes and some poor investments, but that’s part and parcel of investing. As the old saying goes, if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.

some motivation?

Tax-free that is. Living in Singapore, we might complain about the 7% in GST that we have to pay for almost everything (even your chicken rice lunch at Boon Tong Kee is not spared).  But we take for granted that we do not have to pay any capital gains or dividends taxes.  What this means is that you get to keep all that you earn, without giving the Singapore government a portion of your earnings.  Whoopee!

Shares vs Property

We’re not about to get into a debate here about the relative merits of Shares versus Property, but since we’re all about shares, we hope you don’t mind if we just stick to the share market for now.  However, let’s just say that you’ll be hard pressed to find a nice condo at $500,000, and when you need the money, you can’t really sell off one square foot (or a tile for that matter) at a time.

The bottom line is we think investing in the share market can be financially smart, simple, inexpensive, and over time, help you generate life-changing wealth.

Think back to those tables from Step 1. There are no guarantees in life, but if you invested $1,200 per year for 40 years and you generated 9% returns every year, as is possible by investing in the share market, you could be half a millionaire.

Enough said?

Investing in the share market: funds vs. shares

You can invest in the share market by buying shares in an individual company, or by investing in a fund, which consists of a variety of shares in different companies – sort of like a basket of shares. With shares, as the value of the share itself (a publicly-traded company) goes up or down, the value of your investment does the same.

With funds, the value of your investment is tied to the value of the fund, which is reflective of the value of the shares the fund is comprised of.  Therefore, one share’s movement has a smaller impact on the fund as a whole, and thus on you, than it would if you had all your money tied up in that share alone. You do pay a price for the relative stability of funds, and that’s the fund management fee – all funds have these. With shares, perhaps the biggest challenge with investing is knowing what to buy, when to buy it and when to sell it. It is a challenge, but if you get it right, the rewards can be truly remarkable.

But we believe funds have their place in your portfolio too. Not every type of fund mind you. We’re talking about one specific type of fund.  Learn more about what we think of funds in one of our Asset Allocation guides “Managed Funds”.
