My views on REITs (Guest Appearance)

August 22, 2019 By KK

I was recently contacted by Kevin Shee, an entrepreneur and investor from Hong Kong via Facebook. Apparently, he found me through my Prime US REIT article on DrWealth. We chatted a few times about S-REITs and he thought it would be great if I were to share my views on his podcast, the Kevin Shee Show. The Kevin Shee Show is a relatively new podcast about entrepreneurship, … [Read more...] about My views on REITs (Guest Appearance)

August 8, 2019 By KK

All that extra time allowed me to think back to some of the AGMs I've attended over the years and the types of characters you find at these events.  Here's a Mr Men and Little Ms-themed list I came up with as part of this pointless mental exercise.   Mr … [Read more...] about Types of AGM Attendees

How not to control your expenses

August 4, 2019 By KK

This week, I celebrated my 6th year in the work force and 31st on this planet. Regular readers would know that reaching milestones tend to make me reflect on the journey so far and what I could have done better. Last year, I shared a personal story about saving $100k by 30 and I thought I'll continue this tradition. I decided to go educational this time with the story of a … [Read more...] about How not to control your expenses

Singapore Savings Bonds (SSBs) – September 2019 Issue

At Risk N Returns, I'm passionate about promoting sensible DIY investing through sharing my thoughts or documenting my investing journey. While I love to take calculated risks, I recognise that most Singaporeans don't. So here's a relatively risk free way to invest your warchest or emergency funds with almost no lock-up period and generally higher yields than fixed deposits … [Read more...] about Singapore Savings Bonds (SSBs) – September 2019 Issue
