the newly devp localities are a good bet though, easy loans, good appreciation, high demand 😊



appreciation so far doesn't guarantee appreciation moving forward. i would still wait for the prices to come down a bit before putting my money in the real estate market. and don't fall for easy loans. banks are extremely cunning when it comes to changing terms at the drop of a hat.

something like "is it good to be a specialist or is it good to be a jack of all trades?"

Nope ..there is a difference .....leisure... time in which one may make voluntary choices of exprience and one's profession( job, study, whatever)....Here is an example ..I was MIA for more than 3 months...I told many buddies of mine(in IF) that I will take this long hiatus...because my profession , my studies demanded it...I never even peeped in here once and never regretted because I knew what I had to do...result ???...I missed nothing and gained a lot.....
where as, i am not focussed at all during my leisure time ....I roam around here ...If I like to talk, I talk ..if I like to read, I do ...or if i plain like to scrap and answer my PMs I just do that and leave ....
This is just an example ..I am neither a specialist nor a jack of all trades ( may be, if I add master of none ) ....but what I am trying to say is ....I don't want to be a "specialist" here 😃 ...
By the way ....This thread has crossed 153 pages....looks like Gur is not active in this forum😉...

i didn't do it right so i lost. i started doing it right and i started making up for the previous losses.

discipline is the key. have a goal. 10-20% returns is considered good. looking for more than that is greed. greed is good and bad. depends on what you want in life. do you want to go for the kill or be a play-it-safe kind of guy?

aww.. well you should invest in blue chip companies these days.. I hardly see the blue chips like tata or reliance having major competitors with new smaller companies 😆

i rotated money between sectors; i moved into financials when they were in their lows. for example, i put money in wells fargo and bank of america stocks. once i got good returns there, i rotated money really fast into tech. ibm, hp and some internet stocks like amazon and baidu. they did very well in recent months.
