e.g. Plife and First Reit are good example of healthcare that gave good long term growing passive income, if you had got in at the right time.

For other type of healthcare, you need to have the right comp plan, besides having the right product to go along with it.

Something I have personally used and would expand the possibility earning extra bucks with it. ๐Ÿ™‚ You can use your other knowledge and skills to earn the extra $$, not forgetting make it as your interests else it would be a chore running the business.

Agnes want:
I don't know what you have said, I am be there just want to see the replies, I want to see what kind of way can really earn so money and I will consider of it.

Agnes, you got to ask yourself this question, what if you're wrong, will you be financially ok in that investment?

Is the upside potential at least double the downside risk?

Real Investors always consider Risk first, ie. worst case scenario, how much will they lose? Then if they are comfortable with absorbing such loss by asking (what if I'm wrong, will I be financially ok?)

Only then, they look at the potential upside. And they are only interested to invest if the upside potential is at least double the downside risk. This is how the rich gets richer.

The average person either will ask: is there risk? (of course everything has risk, even if you sleep, there is a risk you may not wake up tomorrow). How much is the returns? (GREED comes in and they are (naively attracted if someone tell them a (High Return). Then they wonder why they always lose money in investing?

When in actual fact, investing without KNOWLEDGE is actually not investing, but simply Gambling.

\"when you take care of the downside, the upside will take care of itself\".

You have to look beyond the traditional and/or brick and mortar business since it is the new and dynamic world with constant changes.

As long as the passive income can and will continue to to provide for you, this is definitely the type to go for.

The advantages of bluechip is that even during recession it will be around unlike the loads of S-chips that kick the bucket already. Based on historical evidence the price of bluechips is always on the uptrend if you widen your horizon from 1 year to 10 year.

You can consider Singpost as it is around .93cts and have been paying out very good dividend, if i am not wrong past 5 years they pay out on avg 6% per year. However the flip side is that it is a sunset industry and will have to see how the goverment is going to turn it around.

Alternatively you may want to consider buying State Streetโ€™s STI ETF fund, capital gains+dividend is about 10% p.a based on the past 5 years. To clarify i have not bought it before but am considering it.

Seriously I don't find the shares stable at all be it blue chip or not. Everything is going yo-yo! For now, I will hold on to my shares for sure. Money in the bank cannot do anything for you. I need to invest my funds.


There is no such thing as stable shares. Just look at SingPost now. Used to be very stable at around $1. Now dropped till 2008 crisis level

Anyway just hold on to shares of good companies. They will recover and along the way you just collect the dividends

When I used the word stability, I meant it as a relative term. Whether it is a bear run or bull run, most stocks will be affected, but in general, the percentage fluctuations of blue chips are not as wild as others. Hence, I consider blue chips \"stable\". However, how stable the prices are also depends on the industry the stocks are in. E.g. a blue chip like Keppel Corp in the shipping industry is more volatile than a blue chip like SPH in the media industry.

Sigh! Would you consider S'Pore exchange share as blue chips? I m losing money now.

I consider it to be blue chip. It is stable in general. People who entered the market in 2011 would be losing some money, so you are not alone. But if you are in it for the long haul you can expect SGX to recover. ๐Ÿ™‚
