The 4 Mistakes I Made When I Was Young and the Lessons I Wish I Knew

1. Overspending on Travel and Experiential Pursuits

I traveled extensively, visiting about one-third of the world to immerse myself in different cultures and lifestyles. While the experiences were valuable, none truly "clicked" or brought lasting fulfillment, yet I spent a significant amount of money chasing my dreams.

Lesson: Travel broadens perspectives, but endless exploration without a deeper purpose can become an expensive form of searching.

2. Falling into Materialism and Status-Driven Consumption

I became a "slave" to big luxury brands—designer clothes, bags, and accessories—largely because of the cultural pressure in Asia where people often judge or respect you based on outward appearances before truly knowing you.

Lesson: External validation through possessions is fleeting and expensive. In many societies, status symbols serve as social shortcuts, but real respect comes from character, actions, and relationships—not logos.

3. Over-Reliance on DIY Fundamental Analysis as a "Conservative" Retail Investor
I spent countless hours doing deep fundamental research, believing it would give me an edge, only to have a rude awakening: whales, institutions, and professionals consistently outperformed me. By the time valuable data became public, the opportunity was usually gone or diluted.

Lesson: Retail investors rarely beat institutional players at their own game through solo research alone.

4. Being Too Conservative with Dividend-Focused and Low-PE Stock Investing
I poured most of my capital into high-dividend stocks (at least 6% yield) and chased low price-to-earnings (P/E) value plays for perceived safety. In reality, during bull markets, these lagged badly—often rising late or not at all—while big tech/growth stocks dominated.

Lesson: Excessive conservatism can be costly in growth-oriented cycles. High-yield dividend stocks provide comfort and income, but they often underperform in strong bull runs where capital appreciation (from growth companies) drives outsized returns.

My Advice to Young People
It is easy to chase experiences, status, and 'safe' paths that feel right in the moment—but many of them quietly erode your future freedom. I spent heavily traveling the world, buying luxury brands to fit societal expectations in Asia, indulging in Michelin dining and 6-star stays, and parking most of my money in high-dividend, low-PE stocks for security.

While some moments were enjoyable, the real cost was massive opportunity: money that could have compounded, growth I missed by being too conservative, and time lost to superficial validation.

My advice to you: Start investing early with balance—some growth for upside, some stability for peace—diversify beyond your own research, ignore the ego of going all-in, and prioritize compounding over appearances. The habits you build (or break) now will shape decades ahead. Learn from others' scars so you don't collect your own.

CEX MELTDOWN AMID BIGGEST LIQUIDATION IN HISTORY

Big exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, Robinhood, and Kraken - all struggled to stay online as the market crashed.

Order books froze & apps lagged. Traders locked out mid-crash.

It wasn’t just a liquidation, it was a stress test for every exchange in crypto.
