investment

Firstly, I should not tell anyone that I have finance background. Secondly, I should not tell anyone that I'm working with the treasury of this country. And, it has to do with finance again. I do not want to recall the tragedy but somehow it happened many years ago while I was still a newbie in the industry. It taught me a lesson. A really painful and costly one. A friend came to me and introduced an interesting package, so called it could yield higher return. So she was confident and managed to convince me- I truly trusted her. Few months after I put my money in, the market turned upside down so was the price of the product I bought. To me, it was quite a huge sum of amount. So I waited and kept myself holding on to it, hoping for a day when it would bounce back. Sadly, the day I had waited din come and I lost hope. Last year, I pulled my money out. Although I din get back the full amount, at least I din suffer so much loses. I blame myself for easily putting trust in other people and for not doing any homework. I think I should just venture in low or totally no-risk investment. While I'm counting the loses I had suffered, it could actually pay for the air tix to the europe or usa. No wonder I feel heartache... Hahahaha...
