2019 has been a relatively lucky year as I have done very
little compared to recent years yet the returns was the better one.
Perhaps laying low and doing little was a correct call after
all especially how bad the 2nd half of 2018 has been.
On the other hand, I attended more concerts than the
previous years as well. In 2020, I hope to attend more than I have done in
2019.

| 2019 Returns vs STI ES3 |
The HSI represented by tracker fund of Hong Kong (HKEX:
2800) has returned 12.78% this year.
My thinking would be that 2020 would likely be a year with
returns much lower than 2019 and I have to be mentally prepared.
Since I have hit a target I have set midway this year, I
would have to agree with what I would do if I hit the target....and that is to
continue another year.
I can't say if it's a good or bad thing to continue for at
least another year, time and hindsight will tell the story in due's time.
At the same time I
would have to source for some new ideas and review some of my past ideas and
assess if they should be added into the portfolio.
Many thanks to readers of the blog as well as those who have
showed their support to me this year. I wish everyone a happy, prosperous and
healthy 2020 ahead.
