What is the most you will pay for an investment course?

I'd like to share a contrarian view.

answer: 0.00 SGD

Given that several studies confirmed that even professional mutual fund managers cannot longterm beat the market, why trying just that as a retail investor?

advice:

-cheap safe online broker (ideally no commission & maintenance fees)

-passive ultra-longterm stock ETF strategy (ETF choices: U.S., global, tech,high AUM, low TER, physically replicated=no SWAPs, no lending ideally)

-be patient, avoid greed​​​

Truth be told, I wouldn't pay for an investment course. Here are the reasons why (may not apply holistically to all investment courses but just what I heard of / observed from some)

1) There is no guaranteed way to win money

2) It is easier to look back at the past and pinpoint entry points but it is not easy to recreate it at present / future

3) What they teach can be learnt as well

4) If they really do find a sure-win way to reap profits, they'd commit more time to executing the trades rather than spend 3-4hrs of their time coaching you.

5) They may only showcase their wins (How I made 150% in a day) <-- may be purely luck, but not their losses

Even Mr. Market himself doesn't know the market direction, unless you have access to news faster than the layman, I would rather spend the money on books / resources or even investing it into the stock market​​​

$0. I will never learn from courses, most materials can be found online.it is your own temperament in investing which is more important on top of financial analysis

$0 because no one cares about my money more than I do.
