Episode 37: Invest Right and Just Stay Invested

Christopher Tan

Should I get a wealth adviser to help me plan for my retirement?

Chris: If you are savvy enough to design your own portfolios, execute them using suitable low-cost instruments, keep your own emotions in check and have a good withdrawal strategy, please do not engage an adviser. The savings in fees might translate into higher returns.

In this episode, I will explain how retirees can make the investment strategy we have shared in the past few episodes work to get the expected returns.

On top of that, I will also share the value-add that a wealth adviser can provide in this lifelong journey.

Important note: If you stay invested, you will always get positive annualised returns over the long term.
