Book arrived

I received my The Complete Trading For A Living from Amazon today.

I guess that this weekend will be spent reading this book. It is just a very dry month for me. The market is tough, and I'm getting bad. Time to relook at myself.

It's a two book in one, after including postal charges it is still cheaper than in normal bookstore as they don't sell this special edition (you have to buy them separately, MPH quoted = RM207+RM143)

I just sold the last book of this Alexandar guy wrote, what a waste of time. I fell into these TA stuff for 2 to 3 years. Listen to me "TA IS READING TEA LEAVES." After I throw away all these bullshit books and TA stuff and study Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham my account is finally going to the right direction.

Investing IS Investing in a business. You are lending your money to a company to run and expand their business of providing goods and/or services. In return you get

a. Dividend
b. Share buy back - Bigger and more profitable business in the future by investing itself

And this need a proper system to govern the company AND this is the most important thing - Malaysia DO NOT HAVE IT. So, forget about the stupid Malaysia market. Open an account in US, invest for the long term. In Malaysia say you get charges 0.5% for the transaction, when you open your position, you were hit by 1% loss b 4 you even making any money. And when you can invest in a better country why u want to invest in a third world country like M'sia

Warren Buffett said, Rule #1 Do not lose money Rule #2 Do not forget rule #1.

Why invest in Malaysia company when you all know how our government run the country?
