Well, that's my point of view tho. for me at least. you shouldn't generalise all in 1 statement...
You have to understand 1 point. Not every single field works the same! If those studying account finance related or business administration waste their time on not trying on doing investment like you said.... then its really sucks.
On the other hand, take doctor as an example. If HO, no need to say.. Time confirm not enough, they rather sleep, then playing what investment. We take MO as an example. Life as a MO just slightly better than HO. 8 - 5 confirmed. If oncall straight >24 hours. Later post oncall need join ward round. That also depend on what department you are in A and E definitely busy. O and G also sure busy. And the next day 5pm go back rest la. Or writing report, prepare for specialist training... and discussing with consultant. Thing repeats.....
While a more leisure job - teacher. 6 - 2 confirmed. Maybe one of the days 6 - 6 for koko or weekly meeting. Go back around 7, marks paper, prepare lesson plan for next day until 10. Sleep. Now they doing better. Last time under moohy got want online fill up data. need to wait till midnight for server to cool down that even keluar newspaper. Impossible you miss this news. Now that server closed shop already...
I take the 2 jobs above as example because I find them really busy and really time constrain, and yes, they are pretty young too around 24. whats better investment for them? Maybe property? FD? ASX? If they having family... More serious
Well, for student. The Big 3 - Med, Dent, Pharm. I know they really really busy. And hell lot of stuff to study. Don't believe? Ask kkk8787. 8 - 5 confirmed. Make presentation, study, essay writing, case writing, follow up. All takes time. All stress up and I do understand sometime, they go and relax abit via some entertainment...
Who don't want money... Who... For those slack people, lazy people surely wasted. But those are doing the right thing at the right time, persuading their dream, contributing to the community, you cant say them rather earn less so as to have easier life.
I have seen students in many different fields-of-study attending my talks, learning about investments, in Singapore, that is,... I don't need to go around asking them how they managed to juggle their schedule,.. I generalise,..you're right,.. I generalise with NUS students and other SG university students,... If you have indeed done your study to that level and start to drill down to the different courses and how much time that they probaby have for learning investments, then again I wonder why we have such differences between SG students and our students.
Who don't want money ? I can answer that, those who are willing to earn lesser in order to have lesser work and risks,... those are the people who would prefer to earn less money. But again, there no wrong on that - it's their choice.
However,.......................if the day should come whereby, they wished to earn more but does not have the means to do that anymore, then they should not regret it. Opportunity comes but once in life. And such opportunity normally comes when one is young.
Edited by adding : OR,.. another possible scenario in future is they get fed-up doing what they are doing to make a living, and they wished to make their money work harder for them instead of them working hard for the money,... then that's when they would wish they have taken the trouble to learn investments earlier.
