First investment was in Starhub, because I read a random article saying Starhub was a good stock to buy.

That was 4 years ago.

I made a 30% loss after selling it last year :(

Moral of the story: don't blindly follow "financial advice". Do your homework!

Just finished my first year into investing, investing about 90k into various passive forms of investing, mainly robos (time-weighted average 60k). I’ve generated about 6.5k of returns, is that decent?
