_*Money, Life & Equities*_

So, equity investments deliver superlative returns in the long term....

Pls think again 樂

Check the above point to point ...data

A lot depends on

*When did we start to invest*

*How long have we stayed invested*

*How frequently or how infrequently did we buy / sell / continue to hold*

*What kind of investments have we done*

*What's out Asset Allocation mix*

*Are we tracking our entire financial assets at a portfolio level and then, check the CAGR returns over a time frame*

*Did we lose money?*

*Did any Asset / Product pull our returns down*?

*Did we have better options to invest when we started out to actually invest or in the midst*

*Where our expectations more or less, to where we stand?*

*If so, is it being looked at from the holding period of the portfolio, and along with the kind of Asset mix we hold?*

*If not, could we have taken a higher or a lower risk with our money?*

And not to leave out the *things which are never ever under our control*.....

Govt Policies
Taxation
Economic Direction
Collective Financial Market moves
Regulations
Global developments
Domestic issues
Etc.

_What we can do, is what we can do_

The rest is not in our hands.
That's the bottom line.

Ifs and Buts are always there.....but, it's mostly retrospective 😊
