About me
There’s only 2 sources of income; people at work, and money at work.
Hi there! My name is Sam from Singapore, I have 3 young kids, namely Z, Q, & E. As of writing today, I have reached financial freedom, and I’m writing this blog to share my thoughts on financial matters, and anything related to money. Primarily, this blog is meant for ZQE as they grow up. While I hope I can grow together with them and pass down my values and tips to them, life can be unpredictable. Hence I hope this blog may come in handy for them in future, and since I’m writing it, I might as well share my thoughts to the world. I came from a middle class family, and I’m fortunate that I have met great mentors in my life who selflessly shared their secret to me. Here I’m now, to share these secrets to you. I have no get rich quick scheme for you though, and whatever I plan to share is basically fundamentals of financial planning. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos once asked Warren Buffett, “Your investment thesis is so simple. Why don’t more people copy you?” Buffet replied, “Because nobody wants to get rich slow.” That’s the reason why I decide to name my site financial turtle! You don’t have to be fast to be rich, nor you want to be slow as well. It isn’t about speed, it’s about consistency, and fully comprehending the 8th Wonder of the World; Compounding interest. Hence I hope you find great ideas for you to implement on my site, otherwise thank you for viewing as the site was primarily built for my kids. Disclaimer: whatever I share is purely based on my opinions, and if you have other thoughts, I welcome constructive feedback so that we can learn together. Cheers!
