Is this UK land banking a scam?

Hello everyone, I just received a phone call about an hour ago from a representative of Kelana Setia, who wanted to introduce me to a land banking opportunity in Folkestone, Kent, UK. After checking the summary which he emailed to me, some things don't seem quite right: 1. The purchaser is entitled ...

It's an entertaining read, in the sense that the gossip columns are entertaining.. Regardless of who is right or wrong (not that it really matters), I just find the blatant materialism shown by Jimmy Wong quite a turn-off.

GreatLink Cash Fund

Hello everyone, Early this year when I bought some policies my financial advisor suggested that I set aside some money from my CPF OA to invest in a Great Eastern fund, as a means of reserving some money for HDB installments in the future, and get some modest returns too. Since the markets have been...

Hi randwick,

Thanks for the tip. Have just read through the post, very informative. I have a better idea now of how to combine FA/TA to check the upside/downside potential.

Hi everyone, I apologize in advance if this is a silly question. When doing any sort of investment, we must always analyze the upside versus the downside. Dennis advises that the upside must at least be twice the downside. He personally advocates a 50% possible return to a 25% possible loss. What is...

First time investor

Hello, I have just attended Dennis' 2-day stocks seminar over the last weekend. Dennis introduced many concepts which I have to take more time to digest, but in the meantime I would like to ask for some advice. I have never made a single investment before, and I was thinking of constructing the &quo...
