Painful investment experience? I have so many stories to tell of my investment failures.

Off my head, the most value destructing would be Celestial Nutrifood and Jurong Hi-Tech. These 2 became zero value.

Then there are some which i got back like x cents for a dollar. e.g. Daka design, china powerplus.

There was a point in my life when my poerfolio almost wiped out.

But I never gave up on my dreams. These failures helped to shape me after that.

Don't worry for me, am ok now.

Most painful investment - Getting married

2nd painful investment - raising a kid.

3rd painful investment - buying cars 

4th painful investment - Buying many watches 

But we all survived Singapore and KPKB only right. Haha - so other investments, nothing lah.

Umm...interesting thread. 

Trying to think hard, but no regrets. Whatever was missed or lost, is perfectly ok.  That's just part and parcel of investing.  

People tell me that maybe I will regret retiring before 50 as there will be many lost opportunities. Not sure about this one yet......will just have to navigate the future.
