I don't mind sharing with some of you people here. As I have said, in investment there is no 100% guarantee...but in life, how many guarantee do we get?
Thanks and very much appreicate your generosity

Hi,

Since I am not a certified financial advisor, I am not suppose to give any investment advise. The following is my sharing. What to do with it is all up to individual. Please don't come back to argue with me why is this my choice etc....

I am quite confident with my investment. Do not use money that you cannot do without with for at least a year. This investment is suppose to be in and hold for at least half a year. If you do that, I am almost quite certain that you may be quite happy by that time. Short term, the price may move up and then drift down in the next few weeks but there is no guarantee. No body can predict short term or even long term with 100% accuracy. ok...

Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSEArca: GDX )

I am just in a rebellious mood and wanting to go abit more public.....

A 38 yr old guy who claims he made $1million from stocks suddenly starts a thread in a salary forum to ask a senseless question like "do you think I should continue working even though I have $1m?"

Next thing we know, same guy claims he will be sharing the "secrets" of his success with everybody in a salary forum. So far doesn't seem to demonstrate any knowledge of investment except some generic comments like short term market will fluctuate, only invest in money you can afford to lose, no guarantee etc...

Yea, right. Get real dude.

Do you think I should leave my job?

My job can be quite free and can be quite busy. No fixed workload. I have the privilege of working from home, travel once or twice a month in the region.

Salary has doubled over past 5 years.

My staff are hardworking and motivated except one or two that needs monitoring.

Only issue is ego is something that needs to forego. Not suitable for someone who has big ego and one who is unable to swallow ego for long.

Guess the main challenge of this job is to ... manage ego.

Can you provide more detail? Which stock to buy and when is the good time to buy? This will be more fruitful.

Thanks you
