Networth update

May'2020
Net worth = 781,000
Liquid Assets = 285,000 (cash + equities)
Debt = 400,000 (HDB loan)

Cash = 50,000
StashAway = 0
Equities = 268,000
Home equity = 280,000
Insurance = won't count this
CPF Ordinary = 30,000 (myself) + 30,000 (wife)
CPF SA Account = 55,000 (myself) + 55,000 (wife)

Miles net worth = 450,000 miles = $8,600 SGD

I am updating my networth after losing almost 60k due to the COVID virus. I have manged to reduce the amount to 8k (-2%) within 2 months after trading heavily. Net, based on a P&L impact stand point, I am still down about 30k, which is half the amount.

Net worth has increased by about 100k vs. Oct 2019 update due to including SA account as part of my networth after topping up 15k cash in Dec 2019.

With roughly about 300k invested in equities, I expect dividend yield of 15k per year and saving rate of 100k per year.

The aim now is to start Jan'2021 after collecting my bonus with an invested assets of the below:

The similarities between the work of an equities analyst and solving a jigsaw puzzle

Yesterday, I went for an interview at a buy-side investment firm and was required to write an essay about the above topic. It was strange considering they weren't asking me more about the technical knowledge regarding finance. There were also a few other applicants applying to Economic Analyst and Quantitative Analyst roles. I saw their test paper, and it was scary. They were filled with plenty of theories and problem sums, and they seem to be solving long equations. On top of that, they both have a PhD from NTU. I guess the competition must be tough out there to work for a buy-side investment firm (albeit a poor cultured company). I've decided to recap what I wrote during the interview as a way to improve my writings. Here we go: Finding, interpreting and imagining The aim of an equity analyst is to understand the business, analyze the financial health of the business and form an opinion about the future of the company. It sounds simple but is easier said than done. It req...

Sep 16th @ Network Update

Life has been less busy compared to the 1st 6 months of the year. It is still busy nonetheless except that the pace at work has slowed down comparably vs. last year. It is also good that I received my first variable bonus for the first time in 5 years at P&G. It is small though, at roughly about $5k, and am awaiting that coming into my account :)  To recap: May'2020 Net worth = 781,000 Liquid Assets = 335,000 (cash + equities) Home equity = 268,000 CPF Ordinary = 30,000 (myself) + 30,000 (wife) CPF SA Account = 55,000 (myself) + 55,000 (wife) Miles net worth = 450,000 miles = $8,600 SGD Sep'2020 Net worth = 831,000  Liquid Assets = 381,000 (cash + equities) Home equity = 268,000 CPF Ordinary = 30,000 (myself) + 30,000 (wife)  CPF SA Account = 55,000 (myself) + 55,000 (wife)  Miles net worth = 800,000 miles = $12,000 SGD Networth should increase by another 15k by end Sep when i received by bumped up pay but for the time being i am not counting it in.

China is a big superpower in today’s financial markets. Please discuss this in relation to the European debt and the US-China relationship.

This was written during my Finance102 - Financial Markets course. It was about 2 years ago but I still find it quite an interesting read. The language is poor because it was written under time constraint and some facts might not be fully representative of the situation. I agree that China is a one of the big superpower in today’s financial markets but definitely not be world’s biggest superpower. China is the largest creditor (as at Nov2010, China owns about a third of US debt) and with the ability to bail out European countries from debt crisis. With such a fund, China Vice-Premier has recently visited Europe and pledged to pump money into Spanish bonds in order to decrease reliance on U.S as an export market. The European Union has always been the biggest export market for China, hence China‘s investment in European debt came in as no surprise to most people. Also, considering that Europe constitute 27% to world’s GDP and US accounting about 23%, it is only natural t...
