How Eric gets started
First of all, because of Kenneth, I started this blog. Well, maybe many people think I like to preach on investment. I think I am a normal person who does not have a high paid but just want to be more secured about life. Hence I started by investment.
I seldom looked after my money in Uni time or even at the time when I started my first job in CLP. Since money for me was just a number, until I joined Hutchison, with 30% salary slashed!!! I started to think about how to support my living while doing something I like.
As many people did, I read the book, "rich dad poor dad", the question about why a smart people who got bankrupted at the end was always ringing in my head. Obviously, why we never learned about money at school and why people can use money as a tool (while I used computer)? I think I needed to learn, just like people need to learn about how to use pen and paper before, and how to use computer these days. I need to learn how to use money as a tool. Then I started to consider investment, at the age of 24.
It was such a good timing, as it was after economic crisis and after 911, I could say, no matter what I betted on, I could get double from it.
