    Fundamental Principles Of Behavioural Finance

    January 6, 2021

    Reading Time: 2 Minutes Heya all! So I went back to my parents place to pick up a few things today. And whilst rummaging through my old room – came across copies of some old, tattered print-outs I had stuck to my wall. Now many male, uni-aged students are not unfamiliar with the humble poster. From old school Jessica Alba prints to corny motivational memes, it’s fair to say that there’s plenty of variety adorning our walls. Except for yours truly, amongst all the above – there were 7 posters… or print-outs rather, which was blu-tacked right above my desk at eye level. In no particular order, they are: I…

    8 Financial Lessons From 2020

    January 3, 2021

    Reading Time: 3 Minutes Happy New Year everyone and WELCOME BACK! Hands up if you’re very excited for what 2021 will bring? Haha, I exited 2020 with a whimper, with a (lonely) jog in the park on NYE followed by watching “Tenet” (confusing) with MrsFrugalSamurai, and get this… going to SLEEP before midnight (exhausting), thereby missing out on the fireworks (disappointing) and also ringing in the New Year with MrsFrugalSamurai (chastising). D’oh! Getting old in my years. Anyhow, as much as I love to look ahead, it’s also important to look back on the previous year because well… 2020 had it’s moments didn’t it? So in no particular order, I…

    DON’T FALL FOR THESE 6 COMMON ADVERTISING TRICKS

    December 4, 2020

    Reading Time: 1 Minute Hey all, this post is a video version of my most recent post (read here). From a lot of the feedback I’ve received from the earlier post, I thought – it’s gotta be deserving of a video! Hope you guys enjoy: Transcript: OK so did you buy anything from the Black Friday Sales? What about Cyber Monday? If yes, chances are you’ve fallen for one of those tricky marketing tactics retailers use to make us part with our hard earned. I felt compelled to do this video, because I think it’s super important we are all aware of the most common tactics used against us, as…

    TRICKS SELLERS USE TO MAKE YOU BUY MORE

    November 29, 2020

    Reading Time: 2 Minutes “Hey we have to buy this…” “But what?” “This”. I looked around… sigh, yet ANOTHER item we must have. Turns out this time, it’s a DeLonghi air purifier, heater and cooling fan. Ooo La La. Yep, welcome to the one weekend where MrsFrugalSamurai turns into a possessed wheeler and dealer – hustling and bustling in the online Bazaar. I am referring of course, to the Black Friday Sales, which leads into Cyber Monday. As much as I love having my CO2 purified, I can’t help but feel my gullible yet still sexually attractive wife has been suckered by yet another tactical play from the retail powers-to-be.…

    Why Markets Rise

    October 25, 2020

    Reading Time: 3 Minutes “Why are markets rising?” Hm, interesting question MrsFrugalSamurai posed to me last night, as she clicked on another James Charles video. James Charles, for the uninitiated, is an American internet sensation/make-up artist/Youtuber. Why women are following men for make-up advice, is beyond the scope of this discussion. “I mean, why are markets rising when the economy is struggling?” Pay attention to that video woman, and get rid of these here wrinkles, I thought but did not say as I love my wife. As I stepped away from the mirror, I began to think. Why are markets rising? Everyone knows that COVID-19 has pretty much put the…
