What do you guys think of the guy who runs the YouTube channel "Financial Education" making 20%-30% p.a. off stocks?

He makes 20-30% possible, while some of you guys are saying that 8% is hard to achieve. I’m new to this but know the fundamentals of investing and would like to know your thoughts on this guy and his strategy!

I do not know why there are so many skeptical opinions on 20-30% PA.

To me, that is actually quite achieveable.

I have seen so many people who have done more than 50%.

But its not FREE 20-30% pa. its hard work. There are many ways to go around it. One way is value investing. Another way is contrarian investing. You can also identity trends and growth, again, not difficult but not free money too.

You need to do lots of research, and most importantly, LONG TERM.

1 big regret of mine is not buying citibank nor AIG when everyone was panicking and their stocks went to super low.

Would you dare to buy when everyone was selling? Even when all your research proved that its a good buy?

I learnt firsthand its easy in theory to say yes, but tough when you are dealing with your own money.

BTW I know very successful people (both Singaporeans and Americans) who have done very successfully financially (not merely in stock market, but in other ways), and started their own youtube channels. They are doing it not because they need to earn money (hence skeptical people think they are faking it), they are doing it because WHY NOT?

Successful people jump from one success to another. I been telling my brother this: once you have a pot of gold, the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and so on is soooo much easier.

Skepticalness is the best way to preserve your money, it is also the best way not to make any.

PS: Do not take investment advice from strangers on the internet. ;)

If its so good why is he sharing it? He should be in a private jet flying off to his newly acquired island for a holiday!
