Well, could go the other way also. Then you really need "Prince Charming" to help you out

So.....what's your problem??
Liquid cash??

definitely not good for heart.

Hey...but the cash isn't a problem.....
How can it be???

Dunno why if you need 175k for your plan it should be a problem....

If your investment deal (whatever it is) is so good then you'll get lots of people who want to get in on it and you can ride along with the group....

40?? 

Goodness.. What do you plan to do between 40 and 80?

IMO, one cannot just live off trading when you're retire at around 40-50 when you have no monthly income nor even EPF supplements. You cannot predict the market any money in the market, one must be willing to lose it all.

Worse still, if you are still supporting your family.. your kids education will double what your parents had paid for yours.

When you're in retirement age, this is the time when you actually needs to BACK OFF from trading stocks and pull majority of your assets into safer investments like fixed income deposits, bonds, gold, etc..

Trade or Invest in stocks now.. not when you're much older.
Continue to work till max age to get full retirement package or pension (if you're govt servant) like 55-60.
Oh well. who cares anyway, right?.. The world economy is going to collapse in two years anyway. 

35 months x 50 points rise = 1750 points rise? Is it possible in 3 years?

What??

There goes my dream of selling INTC at 28.88 anytime soon

Tonight, NYSE all red, as expected, the energy sector are overbought.

IMO, crude should go down.. $70+ is tipping point.
Some bulls still think this market is good.  We need more bull traps here.

It seems so..

I'm waiting for Gold and Silver price to pull back to load up more but
damn.. those precious metals are getting more expensive everyday.

Hoarders are preparing for the big inflation.

Maybe we should consider  an alternative reason why Dow should be bullish.
