I am not kidding ....You may left with 20k ....
Compare the prices for most of the SGX stocks in 1996 and now, you will know what I mean.
However, if you compare prices for 2001 (after 911) and 2011, for 100k you invested in 2001, you may get back 300k in 2011. So it all depends on your entry level (or entry year) and what is going to happen when you exit.
If you enter in 2001, STI was 1200. If you enter now, STI is 2500. In 2011 and 2016, STI should be 800 or 3500????? I don't know the answer, do you know???
Well... if take 911 into account... maybe you are right.
No need 911. "President Chen" continue do some more things, some affect will beseen.
China now military exercise, barking dog, wont bite you might say,
Chen's fellow now one more step , want to add "2 countries" into constitution, how to react?
Not necessarily a 911. but some "smaller" things, we small investor will already cannot take it lah.
So better stay away from Taiwan shares lor...
The sign of Mr Chen will do something similar have been very obvious for quite long...
Of course if you want to take high risk and get high gain, just try it lor...
some private bank product garantees you 15% returnreally don't know how they do it....
but you need 5M USD to qualify to be a private bank customer.....
Do you think anybody here got 5M USD in hand?
I do think this kind of person can be excluded from this board anyway. Either there is no such person, or they operates in a very different manner like us.

Haha, I know you are just giving an example
But I am actually talking about those cases that happens suddenly with no sign even 1 day before. (e.g. 911). Thus why I say Mr Chen's story is totally different from 911. And for most cases like Mr Chen's, we can take some preventative actions to minimize our lost.
Only your 1st payment is from your pocket, the rest from your CPF only. Work for another 1 or 2 year you should get at least something. Unless you hold the same idea as 梅花宝剑 that investment need at least 100K.
