1. To generate a ROE of 20% on equity investment.-> The return from equity investment is lesser than what anticipated, however the share investment has been recovered from the shock in December last year, while the return from derivatives is still favorable.
2. To secure another 1 to 2 cash flow real estate.-> Managed to secure 2 cash flow deals, via profit sharing and joint venture with friends.
3. To quit the job and start own investing business.-> Expressed the intention of resigning with the immediate superior, and I will be given the flexibility to handle my business in the event that there is any issues arising from the business, with the prior consent obtained.
4. To keep attending seminars to network with like minded people.> Attended few seminars on stock and futures investment, but not real estate event. Think there are some areas where I can continuously improving myself especially on the network. Given so, I am still appreciating on every trust given to me.
In general, year 2015 is still a hard year for me, as I was starting my business from scratch with few partners. It is a potential investing business comprised of sourcing property that below market value at good location, dealing and liaising with professional parties, leasing the property and finally listing it on Airbnb for travelers' home stay. It requires a lot of effort on the preparations for the work, routine operations, coordination and communication skills.
I am really glad to work with those like-minded people, it is really a big breakthrough for each of us, from communicating this idea until putting it into work, despite it occupies quite some time of mine, making each of us busier than others. I think this is what youngsters say- to be passionate about doing what you love to do and be courage enough to make a difference. I should be rejoice always that I am still young, physically and mentally, be brave enough to pick up new things and learn through the mistakes.
The largest gain in this year would definitely be the stronger heart to withstand the troughs. There is one saying that embedded in my mind that "Sometimes life's going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith." We human do make mistakes sometimes, get frustrated by things that go against our will, or even suffocated under the stress imposed by others. Nevertheless, I am still appreciating these though things which makes me a better person, to be able to grow and cope with these unexpected stumbling blocks.
I am quite convinced that gratitude is the ultimate gift for life changing, a person without appreciation won't be able to go far alone.As such, it has become a must to once again express thousand thanks to those people who put their trust on me, being my closest friends and families. I will work even harder not to let them down, and my sole new year resolution in 2016 will be to focus on growing my real estate investment business, despite exhaust my every single effort.
