If parents healthy just about right but if got illness need go to and fro hospital times 2 ppl hmmm... unless he has siblings to chip in? The 2 items that affect one is elderly parents and children and for some throw in spouse too. Truly free is only you alone and no one else then those monies you earned really only feed ownself.I think his 5k is for single with no dependents
He is supporting his parents annually 40k.
his dividend 200k pa and still growing....no need to worry about himIf parents healthy just about right but if got illness need go to and fro hospital times 2 ppl hmmm... unless he has siblings to chip in?

he did mention in the fifth person video he made 500k in trading alone in his younger years.Assuming 5% dividend yield, his capital is 4m..
He did not really say how he get that massive capital… I live simply too- no car and stay in HDB..he stays in condo & drive.. but don’t think I can reach his level.. not even close
in the same post he did say he would only need 48k if he was a single. 4k+ a month ?He says other people need 5k salary, but he needs 136k:

Don’t read too much on what they sharei agree that if the blog just talk about how much money they have, it wouldn't be that helpful. it would be like an influencer posting photos of his/her expensive stuff.
But to be fair to these bloggers, apart from talking about how much dividends they have, at least they share their portfolio, what they are buying, so people can DYODD. To me thats better than someone that can type wall of text but never share their portfolio and purchases![]()
Learn another lingo todayDon’t read too much on what they share
Almost 90% is NPNT one
don't forget he earns ads review from his website too, not only dividends6 years ago his dividend income was $168k, :
so if it's now $200k, it means that even though he is not earning income, he is still managing to grow his dividends, despite being heavily vested in SG shares. Thats the power of dividends
agree his blog is quite messy. Since he FIRE maybe he should invest in a content creation course. this sort of blog won't be read by the younger generation.
Its important to learn new skills to remain relevant, even during FIRE.
Seems like boat sailing away slowly.
Good for those who bought 1-2 months ago.
