Yes, it is a tough standard to set. Must see his style is trader, and type of stocks...
For a solid listed company more than $1bn, 1 year 20% return over 5 years is already very tough. The companies he bet, must double in less than 2 years... let's see his performance next year...

finance sector is really like a vacuum cleaner - sucking talents from all other sectors (in this case he was lured by the $ and resigned from his mindef regular job). isn't this sad?

This Money & Me series is going from bad to worse. Some of the interviewees in the past were dubious enough but to potray a youngster who has made some money in a 1 year bull market as an example whom investors should learn from is pushing the limits.

They need 52 super interviewees a year. How many wants to go on screen?
The good ones... mostly stay behind the screen...
I bet most people here asked will not agree to be interviewed too... hence the quality... haha

Ha! Ha!
Absolutely! Absolutely RUBBISH! Even WB so far only manage ? % of Annualised Returns , UTD?
BY 30 years he is a tycoon then. What Rubbish.
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.

9% to 10% per annum over the long-term is a more realistic target.
A lot of the interviewees are overly bullish and optimistic.
