Come on la - it's only Rm10mil.
I know some LYN taikos' portfolio are even more 'exciting' than this.
Kacang putih only.

why is it that someone sharing story and kena flamed left right center?
someone claims he's underperforming and not so great.
someone claims he's gonna be burnt soon.
why do people generally sows hatred?
why can't we just wish him well and continued success.

to those invested, may you continue to prosper.
to those not invested, may you find your true calling soon and prosper as well.

somehow continuous wishing and anticipating of bad misfortunes to bestows on others intrigues me. where's the source of the hatred to begin with?

Thank you for your concern on his future welfare

You will see more of him in the papers, oh wait. Singapore paper. Guess you would have no access to it. I'll share on LYN next time.

Btw well done! 10m is not a small portfolio

Oh yeah. You are definitely one of the TCSS.

Haven't been to lyn forum for 2 years, property talk thread has become kopitiam style forum. Where are all the admins?

Rather than asking how he did it, everyone just focus on the statistical number. Myr10m is not a big sum, he is just leveraging on the bank.

Sense a lot sour grape and key board warrior lurking around. No wonder a lot good forumers have stopped sharing. Stop looking at the numbers, rather, look at his sharing on his last note. Singaporean are streaming in to buy iskandar and cause of the min ceiling, msian has advantage.

Anyways, what he did cannot be repeated. Question is, why didn't you do back then? You had the same 2007 year as he did. What were you doing then?

I am not suprised la, 10m, 3-4 prime shoplot can meet target, factory can be more keng chao
But for pure resi play, 10m must give some credit

Let's say 100 young people read this story today and start to emulate it. How many of them do you estimate will have a better life because of it?

of course he is not the only one. There are many more, quiet investors who did better than him but keep a low key profile. But to keep our free club going, reporters got interested on how we survive without charging a fee to members, thus this interview. We were also invited to speak at Singapore property event and by words of mouth, some media got to know us. thanks to mr Ho chin soon, Gavin tee, Thomas Ong, who recommended us.

So we thought, why not? A lot gurus out there charging exorbitant fee to teach investors, then resell them deals. We don't charge fee and if you like us, you join else you can attend free seminar for fun n network.

Investing is our passion, if you think we are bragging, I apologise. Intention is to bring investor together to get more fire power and earn money together. Note that we only buy studios not meant for local use. Studios usually tenanted by expat or foreigner. I am against the idea of buying residential meant for local use and low cost housing.

Now we are moving into commercial and hotel investment, again not impacting the general public. So, I think Ryan and myself are investing ethically.

after all i'm salute him for his age and his portfolio.

i know some of you here have bigger portfolio, or some of you here know someone who is much more success than the newspaper guy...so?

at least currently the newspaper guy do consider as above average based on what he have at his age and seriously im very jealous as i got zero. a story like this or the wtf book will definitely INSPIRE those that eagerly to success in property line.

Actually that article when published in overseas is considered "Another Malaysia Boleh" story. Congrats.

But here in this forum, now the REAL mega-taikors start speaking. Ampun ampun tuanku.

Successful people not necessary need to reveal himself or herself. Sometimes successful people always say they "kecik meow" nia. Unless they want to try cari more makan?

Human nature is like that. Malaysian nature is like to impress and then complain. Boleh culture!

Personally, I always mentioned BUY when you can truly afford. I also mentioned that properties coming on stream serve many different groups of people including foreigners, thus you don't need to kiasu if you didn't buy any of them.

I don't really like the idea of over-leveraging, regardless of how big or small your income is.

Today, I don't really like the idea of having a millions-worth of portfolio in Studio or even the Hotel floor that I know of. The influx/huge supply of studios today is already causing some signs of slowing down.

Having said that, I advise that any young workers out there who cannot afford to buy property at the current price, you need to compensate by buying smaller units. This is OK if you are buying a serviced apartment of minimum 1 room, smaller size (but not Studio with no rooms). This buying is for your OWN STAY, don't think of flipping if your initial purpose is buying when limited income.

There is certainly more LIFE other than property investments.

Btw in Bolehland, to be great in property investments is simply not that great (as our general society is still far from being investment-conscious), but to be great in career, etc is a bigger deal. But the bigger deal is to HAVE KANG TAU in Bolehland... apa boleh, semua pun boleh. My young friend is taking over company today - he no need property investments lah.

Thanks for sharing.
Anyway, he is over leveraging like faizul ridzuan.

Yes

I realised that too, in Singapore, Iskandar is damn hot. But a lot KL investor are not very keen with development in Iskandar. The thing is that, Sg government is imposing a lot of investment restriction in Sg for investors, thus many of them are looking elsewhere and Iskandar seems to be the best place to park the money. (cheaper alternative)

Plus, the ferry terminal is opening next month to connect both Harbour Front (Singapore) and Puteri Harbour, am so looking forward to the influx of Singaporean into Iskandar. Commercials will definitely fly.

Anybody is capable of making a good investment.
Anybody is capable of making a bad investment.

The lady needs no further harassment and pestering. She has explained all she needs to explain.

All successful people are welcomed to share their knowledge and experience in this forum. Your friends have bigger portfolio than Ryan's? Great, ask them to share how they did it here so everyone could benefit. If you don't have anything to share, then don't pester those who want to do so.
