Ah boy self coins myself ah boy as I'm much younger than many of the finance bloggers out there and as such , don't expect to see ultra chim words in my blog. Just 5 steps to improve your understanding of financial literacy or that's how i did it la , not orthodox at all de: 1) Pick up an annual report (AR) I recall vaguely back in 2009 i first started seeing these thick "books" with lots of pictures and stuff on my then neighbour's doorstep, he was waiting for the karang guni man i assume (then where got pdf one? LOL) , now on hindsight , i think it might be due to the financial crisis then. I remember this one very clearly , i picked ...

Hi peeps , ah boy is back with a bone to pick .... kidding la , i had my fill of bah kut teh liao (although hor on a side note, i'm still searching for a BKT that agrees totally with my palate....) The purpose of this post is to express some of my own points , the stuff below , please take it with a pinch of salt ah , don't take it to heart ah , in case i offend any of y'all , apologies in advance. See ,  quite a while back , very long ago actually ( the reason i chose to bring this out now is due to the similarity in the issue on hand) , be4 this article came out that Singapore's Fin-Lit(Financial Literacy) level has experienced the largest decline in APAC , the article can be found here  . I asked a fellow blogger , a more experienced and wiser one , Uncle Rich from InvestOpenly to do a small piece on his take of Singapore's Fin-Lit state. Read the piece below and ah boy shall continue with my story. Ps. The piece written by Uncle Rich is uncensored and un...

Silver & Gold Flash Sale?

Sorry ah , i've not been blogging for about 2 weeks minimum as stuff happened (shall not elaborate too much as it is water under the bridge.) So , i was toying with idea of a special flash sale whereby silver prices are lower than the usually low ones that i offer to my friends and clients... sounds good hor , but i still need to iron things out.  Though , there is some good news to this though , i'm planning a small sale of small gold bars as there is a hindu festival coming soon. Friends who have friends who wanna get them , you know where to find me, facebook pm me or email me , email address is below!    :) Cheers Ah Boy kgbullion@gmail.com

What doesn't knock you down , makes you stronger.

This post is dedicated to 2 valued friends of mine (y'all know who you're)  and also as a sort of a reflection for some of my younger readers :) Ah Boy knows that stuff doesn't always go smoothly as planned , bumps along the way happen. When that happens what choice do you and all of us have but to suck it up and move on?  When you look back from where you almost fell , and see how far you have climbed , remember the drive and the effort you took to get where you're and pause, pick up the pieces and continue the climb. Remember that for ever one person out there that is waiting for you to fail , a hundred others are waiting for you to excel and inspire them to do the same , so help yourself and help them , in turn by taking some alone time and sort out your thoughts and press on. The day when you know you've achieved something is when someone up on the street comes up to you and say thank you for helping them or their family etc etc in some way or another! Ok ...
