Very nice blog topic vondave.. Totally agreed. In fact, based on my computation we only need to get a consistent 1% overall portfolio gain daily to reach our 1 million the shortest possible time.

Here is what i found out:
Given:
-5K capital with consistent 1% gain with average interim of 1 day will make you hit 1M just 1.5 years.
-5K capital with consistent 1% gain with average interim of 5 days will make you hit 1M just 7.3 years.

-60K capital with consistent 1% gain with average interim of 1 day will make you hit 1M just 0.78 years.
-60K capital with consistent 1% gain with average interim of 5 days will make you hit 1M just 3.9 years.

-110K capital with consistent 1% gain with average interim of 1 day will make you hit 1M just 0.61 years.
-110K capital with consistent 1% gain with average interim of 5 days will make you hit 1M just 3 years.

Thanks bai. If I could do 1% every day, that would be huge!!! However, the average my current system makes is about 6%/mo. What helps though is that I'm becoming more aggressive in putting money into my trading account. My average before was about 4k a month but I've been putting in 10k or sometimes 20k+ if I have the extra money. That should boost my portfolio's growth. In fact, I'm ahead of my original master plan.

I'm controlling my expenses pud. I don't own a laptop. I have chosen to maintain my 15 year old car instead of buying a new one. And I'm staying in a very affordable apartment, bahala na'g gamay. The sacrifices I'm making today will be forgettable once I enjoy the pay-off 10 years from now (or earlier), which is my target to retire.

To everyone in this group, I urge you all to plan for the long term. Retirement is the freedom to do whatever you want. You need a constant cash flow for that. The only way to achieve that is to develop sources of passive income.

Magpadato na ta!!!

Don't wait to join a seminar in order to act. There's so much free information on the net, and books are way cheaper than seminars. Trust me, I've been there and done that.

Go and open a trading account today and learn as you go. Don't be frozen to inaction by 'analysis paralysis'. The biggest stumbling block to successful investing isn't lack of knowledge, it is lack of drive.

Don't be a wimp. You must want it bad.

Trading our sa PSE was 9:30 to 12:00 M-F. Pre-opening at 9:00-9:30. and wrap up closing at 12:00-12:10. Pero mausab ni siya sa new trading system na ilaha gi implement starting today. Which for me affected jud ang volatility sa market kay mas nigagmay iya fluctuation. Sa previous trading system ang tag P10.25 to P25.00 na stocks kay tag 0.25 ang per fluctuation. then ang P25.50 to P100 kay tag 0.50.. Karon sa ilaha new trading system. ang price fluctuation kay 0.02 for P10-P19 stocks, 0.05 for P20-P99 stocks.. Then 0.10 for P100 to P199 na stocks.. Sa US Market bro pila man ang price fluctuations sa stocks?

Dira diay ang memo sa PSE: Memo on new trading system.

Naa mn sd hinay na man lihuk na stocks dri bay pero dli mn ko mu play ana kay kansi mn ko. Bsta stocks less than $10 kay hinay mn volatility nila. Usually akong piliun na plays katong mang move ug >$2/session which is price @ $>20 guro na cla. Then I stay away sa mg OTC ug pinksheets stocks unless it's a reverse merger play then I buy lots of shares sa mga shells.
