I am an ordinary Singaporean guy in my early thirties who is passionate about investing since 2003. I live in a 4 room HDB flat and like many Singaporeans, dream of becoming a millionaire. Currently I am an ordinary worker and have just completed my Masters. I aspire to build up a portfolio of 1 million dollars and derive a yearly recurring dividend income of 6% by 35. The only way to achieve this aim is to work hard and invest prudently. I invest in a variety of instruments such as unit trusts, stocks, REITS and foreign currencies mainly Australian dollars options.
