真正的分散風險

將90‰時間放在你日間的工作,這不是分散風險,工作可以隨時丟掉,工作能力也可隨時失去。
將200‰時間放在你的一個生意上也不不是分散風險。中小企生意能一夜哀哉。
將你的財富投資在基金,債券等單一紙資產簡直是將自己綁死在相同Asset Class
不投資,認為Cash is King是活生生看著銀紙被强迫貶值。
每月將部份收入放在逼迫金=自行將銀紙送入富人袋中。

或者你會不認同,真正的分散風險是能互相backup, 將資產分佈如下不同Asset Class:

一個或多個能給你帶來recurring income 的工具
能每月爲你賺取租金的房地產/asset
Paper Asset
能hedge 貨幣的Commmodity - 實金、實銀、油

這些都是很多真正富有的人所行的路,像每天在各傳媒追捧的地產大亨們,我非常尊敬的宋鴻兵,Robert Kiyosaki 等都是有類似分配,不同的可能是多寡,百份比。

Kiyosaki 寫的書爲他帶來延續式的版税,宋亦是。但富爸爸還有過千間房子收租,成立的財富教育中心在全世界有人爲他銷售課程,光碟,書籍等。這些延續收入是當停下來還繼續有的才是真正資產。當然他還有小量紙資產,及大量金銀,擁有礦業等。1989年他和太太還是滿身負債,但卻從不停止進修,買下第一間用幾千美元的套房後,定立目標於十年後要擁有20套,結果18個月後已達標,至今已擁有3000套。

可能有人認爲他們貪婪,但他們用自己努力,不斷學習,在錯折中爬起,廿多年當中有如此結果,真的非常敬佩。相比現今社會大多數人都安逸於單一投資/工作,害怕改變,害怕改變後失去僅餘的東西。看看上一兩代創業的人,他們都有無限戰意,當今又有多少人能相提並論?

剛在飛機看完他的新作,
“The Unfair Advantage” 有少許感觸,朋輩中沒有太多人有相同理念,他們大多是第一類人,努力賺錢後努力使錢,過著看似逍遙生活。希望快些有多些時間繼續學習之餘將目標提升,及譲更多人脫離rat race!

    Thanks for your kind sharing, Catherine. You are right, most of my friends and colleagues are also only thinking how to work hard to sustain their contracts (they are not aware that they have become the "slaves" of "Big" Bankers). They don't want to think about and do investment on "future." (But I understand them, because the "present" job pressure is very high).

    Focus to the present, and plan to the future in fact is not an easy job. So, I told myself that I have to spend 30 mins everyday to think and plan about future.

  2. hi Silverow,
    haven't seen you for a long time, how are you?
    Yes, it is not easy not to focus on the "current", that's why the real successful people in this world are not many. The more they are clinging to the present for fear of losing them, the higher pressure and less able to perform better.
