The average investor will come across 3-4 opportunities a year. Whether he recognize them and grab hold of his opportunities presented depend on his mindset, knowledge and experience.
My friend, now 37 years old has seen many opportunities come and go. Though he has studied in Australian University, he now works as a security guard. This is a true and sad story of a Singaporean with a diploma and earning only $1,300 per month.
He did not appreciate the privilege to study in oversea university and instead choose to gamble in casino. He lost his school fees and allowance and has to borrow from friends.
When he came back from Australia, he works in shipping line, printing company, food and Beverage Company like MOS burger, Delifrance, Food Junction and SMRT. He never stays long in each company and never acquired enough knowledge and experience and skills in each company and industry. If he had persisted and work hard in a single company, he may be a manager of an outlet and earning $2,500 per month.
To conclude, a man must prepare himself daily to take advantage of opportunity presented. If he does not, he only has himself to blame.
