This post is a special tribute to this wonderful forum where I got to learn about many companies listed in Singapore.

I came to know about Valuebuddies forum after Afralug forum (predecessor of Valuebuddies forum) closed down. I cannot remember how I came to know about Afralug but I knew about it back in 2009. It was in Afralug that I got to know about amazing companies such as Thomson Medical Centre and Kingsmen. Thomson Medical Centre has been privatized since. In the new Valuebuddies forum that started in 2010 (I think), I came to know about more amazing companies such as Super, Vicom, Adampak and OKP.

I'm really grateful to all the moderators and people who run this Valuebuddies forum and also those who ran the Afralug forum. I'm also thankful for every single one of the contributors who have bounced around ideas and I have learnt a lot about investing from visiting this forum and by reading the threads. I'm especially thankful to dydx who has unearthed many wonderful gems and has shared it instead of keeping them to himself and profiting from them alone.

Thank you for all who contributed. Yes! Indeed it is a very great forum. Why? It's simply for people like me only having only an ITE(It's the End) education who do not have the privilege of a U's education to continue learning for life FOC. from all of you.
Thank you.
Shalom & Amen.
WB:-

1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.

Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.

NB:-
My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.

I stumbled upon this forum recently and I'm surprised to find the many quality postings here and the depth of knowledge displayed by many among you. This forum is a godsend not only to those who want to learn about value investing but also to many experienced investor to learn and share. I noticed a high degree of professionalism, expertise and honesty from the postings. More importantly, I see a great spirit of sharing and willingness to help one another. Let me take this opportunity to say a big 'Thank You' to everyone who have contributed to make this forum a success.
