After reading some book, I would say these investment course that you attend can be learn from reading. Of course you need some trial and error to do it and of course having a mentor is better than none. But from the payment of these courses that cost you thousands (which I think is kinda hefty) you might as well try your own and learn from trial and error.

Thats the culture of Msia, ppl hardly reads.

Just your local popular bookstore. Go pay a visit and just grab 1 or 2 book that caught your attention and read away. Not only you're making a habit to read, you're also supporting the dying book industries. More bookstore are closing down.

When I say read away = BUY that book and read. Not sitting there for 10 hours read the whole book. Can keep receipt to claim back income tax refund.
