Yup looking at 5 yrs and as a stock investor myself, i would be more worried on stocks that i hold rather than the properties.
So many things affect stocks. World oil price, fed interest rates, tsunami in japan and KABOOM Klci drop 20 points in 10 minutes. I tell you u wont sleep at night. Coz if a tsunami happens in japan like last time, my house price is still d same but my stocks were getting a beating.
Maybe your emotional make-up not suited to stocks? So many things affect stocks. World oil price, fed interest rates, tsunami in japan and KABOOM Klci drop 20 points in 10 minutes. I tell you u wont sleep at night. Coz if a tsunami happens in japan like last time, my house price is still d same but my stocks were getting a beating.
I've lost sleep due to stress over my job, but I've never lost sleep due to stocks. I have both stocks and properties. KLCI drop 20 points is nothing .... some overseas (blue chip) stocks can go down (and up) very sharply.
But one thing I noticed is that my friends who are heavily into properties (>10 biji) don't tend to do well in stocks. Maybe cause the skills and mind set required are very different.
