Foreign Property

Recently, it was reported in the news that Singapore could hit past 40deg Celcius in 20 years time.

This was quite alarming for me as I am a very strong believer that climate change and global warming are both changing the way we live, and more importantly, the way our children will live in the future.

That was when I thought it'd be a good idea to start hunting for foreign property.

My preferred locations would be either in Australia or New Zealand.

Currently, Australia stands out because the SGD is at an all time high against the AUD. (SGD 0.95 = AUD 1). Also, Perth is a really nice and pleasant city, that is only 4hrs flight from Singapore.

The hunt begins now.

Bicentennial Note

As part of Singapore's Bicentennial celebrations, the MAS released a new and very nice $20 note.

Manage to buy on off a colleague for cost price.

Can't really show the note but this is the cover.

It makes a really nice souvenir, and likely will appreciate in price in the future.

My Saxo P&L 2019 June

It's been a relatively dormant month.

After the trauma of the last few months continuously bleeding away, I'm glad I'm finally seeing the rub of some green, even if it is a small amount.

Hopefully the second half of the year will be kinder and more prosperous for me!

Towards better returns in 2019!
