ASX200 is paying high dividend yield contrary to SP500, more than 4% in average those last 20 years. If you consider the total return, that gives a different picture.

Exactly same! I've tried for 5 years to find something equivalent but haven't found yet.

Yes. Difference is that Singapore is often ranked higher in education than those other countries. So you might be more inclined to put your kids in a very good english speaking local school. However there are certain factors in Sg that will prevent you from doing that

And 1 more troll put on "ignore"! Great function of this forum.

I don't know anything about what? Are you a retard? You said: "Sg education is the best". I asked you what are your comparison criteria? No need to insult people because you can't understand a simple question.

Agree! Don't start me on the duty-free paradise islands in the region. Haha

There's the law and there's what you're expected to do. And in Japan it's a very big difference. A mother that has a full time job is considered a bad mother in Japan. So her colleagues/boss will push her to quit. Even many newly married women will quit because they are supposed to take care of...

We don't need to imagine. We can just look back 2300 years ago at Athènes! Citizens were a minority of the population but their democracy was far more democratic than any country today. It didn't go in the right direction. We will all be part of one galactic Empire led by Sheev Palpatine!

They don't have the same rights as men unfortunately. That classifies them as sub-citizens. So many Japanese females working in Singapore because they want to have a carreer that is not limited by their gender or simply be allowed to have a career AND children. Best rooftop pool in Sg is often...

Was! It was fun. But at that time Airbus was not paying that much so I changed industry after some time. True! That's interesting to see the similitude with trading automation. I still fly manual. But I know the huge potential of flying automation. I admire people who reached that stage and...

We can have all opinions! My opinion is that you write very vague bullshit nonsense! It's just a waste of time for everybody!

I have an experience that relates to this. Actually there are far more incidents that accidents, that are not in the media and even the passengers of those airplanes are not even aware that something happened. I had to analyse many of them and I will always remember my first one. They brought...

Yes. I heard that before. But I am not sure why. There's no natural resources! Economic relationship with the 2 big neighbors is very strong. Military power is at least equivalent to the neighbors one. And and and ... it's too far from China for it to suddenly declare Singapore as part of...

I've not talked about Japan. And actually in Japan, I think it's not that safe especially for women but women are considered sub-citizens there so... Anyway, you should try to live in Singapore. It's not the very strict country that you imagine! Of course, unlike in our western countries you...

I can't tell. I am a Singapore resident but not Singaporean. Too big a shortcut! You can't make this association! What about the freedom to go anywhere you want, at the time you want, without worrying for your own safety? In Sg, you have this freedom. Very few countries have this freedom!

You can! Just take a taxi in Singapore and you will hear all about Sgeans complaints. Or on internet (yahoo....). Same as every country, Sgeans criticize a lot their government. Though they can't protest or organize a gathering to criticize the PM or attempt to publish a negative article in a...

Too lenient in that case yes!

One another example, TQQQ completely crushed QQQ since it was created Perfect! Then you can compare TQQQ for the "entire life" of this ETF and you will see that it performed much much better than QQQ! You chose a one sector concentrated index that performed very well those last 10 years and...

A 16 years stretch is not cherry picking! It's more than a full economic cycle. QQQ was shit during 16 years. Many investors can't afford to wait 16 years to just get back their capital and many other assets/HF whatever performed much better. BRK had a better and much more regular performance...

I guess you mean since the last financial crisis only. Because from the March 2000 high, it took 16 years to just recover. Many HF can do better than 0% in overall return in 16 years. Note: That doesn't include dividends.
