Want Fish or Fishing Skill?
By Singapore Man of Leisure  •  April 15, 2014
When you take up a course to learn something, be it cooking or new language, the desired outcome is that you have learnt a new skill after the course right? If we don't start preparing some dishes of our own, or use the new language learnt, guess what? We soon forget what we've learnt. It simply shows we were not that really into cooking or the new language in the first place. It's just another one of our "3 minute heat temperature" passion thing... I take back that "passion" word. It's more a phase or a fad thing. You just want fish; not how to fish. Before signing up for any investing or trading courses, you may want to be clear whether you want fish or to improve your fishing skill. If you just want fish, might as well skip the course and sign up straight for that investing newsletter or trading subscription service, etc. You know, that "after sales support service" you have to pay even after you have complete a course on "how to fish"!!!??? If you only want fishing skill, you have to ask yourself why you still need someone to tell you what to buy, when to buy, when to sell? What was the purpose of you taking up the course again? Don't get me wrong. Some of these newsletter and subscription service providers are brilliant! If I am following their "advice" to the letter, would it not be better for me to hand over my money to them to invest or trade on my behalf? Why buy a dog and do the barking ourselves?
