[Event] Do You Believe in Long-Term Investing?

Warren Buffett once said:

“If you were given a punch card with only 20 holes for your entire investing life, each investment decision would use up one hole.” You’d probably think a lot harder before punching, right?

That’s the essence of long-term investing — being selective, patient, and focused on what you truly understand.

Most people chase the next hot stock. Buffett doesn’t. He simply buys great businesses — and holds them long enough to let compounding do the work.

How about you? Do you believe in long-term investing?

Buffett Farewell Letter: Is the Last Lesson Resonating With You?
Buffett released his Thanksgiving farewell letter, announcing that he will no longer publish his annual shareholder letters. He used a distinctly British expression — “I’m going quiet” — to mark the end of his legendary 60-year investing career. Buffett revealed another $1.3 billion donation to charity. He concluded with a parting lesson: “You can never be perfect, but you can always be better.” Has Buffett inspired you in your own investing journey? As this Thanksgiving marks the end of an era, what reflections does his farewell evoke in you?

    🌟🌟🌟Do I believe in long term investing ?  Absolutely!  Because long term investing isn't just a strategy .  It is a philosophy.  A love letter to patience .  A punch card with only 20 holes as Warren Buffett once said .  Each punch must matter.  Each decision must not be taken lightly.

    I punched $DBS(D05.SI)$ not because it was trendy but because it ticks all the core fundamentals that I hold dear.

    I saw DBS as a fortress bank, a dividend machine and a symbol of Singapore's resilience .  I held through the cycles ,through the temptation to trade and today I am up 132 %.

    Long term investing is an emotional discipline .  It is watching my portfolio growing through the magic of compounding.

    我絕對相信長期投資。巴菲特的打卡理念時刻提醒我，每一個決定都應該是有意的，而不是情緒化的。我做的決定越少，我就越仔細地評估每一個決定——這種心態讓我專注於可持續增長，而不是追逐短期炒作。

    如果我只有20拳，我想到目前爲止我已經在我真正理解和相信的業務上用了幾拳。像特斯拉和Palantir這樣的公司在這個名單上——不是因爲它們“熱門”，而是因爲我看到了它們的技術、執行力和它們正在塑造的市場的長期潛力。只要它們的基本面和長期軌跡保持完整，我就會在波動中持有它們。

    對我來說，長期投資是關於耐心、信念和讓複利來完成繁重的工作。我寧願擁有幾家偉大的公司多年，也不願不斷地進出交易。更少的拳頭——更強的信念。

    Yes, I believe in long-term investing 🕰️📈! Buffett’s punch card wisdom hits hard — I’ve already used up mine as a rookie 😅. Can I get a new one please[Bless]? If I had to pick one stock to hold for years, it’s DBS 💼—strong fundamentals, steady dividends, and regional dominance. Long-term investing is about patience, conviction, and letting compounding do its magic ✨@JC888 @Barcode @Shyon @koolgal @Shernice軒嬣 2000 @Aqa @DiAngel

    I believe in long term investing. I have been holding few Magnificent 7 companies since 2021. "Magni 7" companies like Apple, Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, Alphabet and Tesla, are all good fundamental company with huge market capitalization. They are stable and suitable for long term investing.

    Warren Buffet's advice is really spot on. And while it appears deceptively simple (and is indeed simple too), it is perhaps one of the more difficult ones to put into practice, especially when behavioral biases start playing their games. Therefore, prioritising "time in the market" over "timing the market," allows one to ride out short-term market volatility and benefit from the compounding effect of returns over time. This disciplined and patient strategy minimizes emotional decision-making that hampers returns.

    Reinvesting earnings to generate their own returns & exponential growth is a plus too. Going long term actually reduces the stress of investing - the amount of pressure investment decisions can give is incredible and if we can reduce it, is all the better: no wonder the "dead men's portfolio" tale is quite popular.

    I seriously believe in this approach though I am able to stick to such counters with only about 50% of portfolio: 3 Singapore banks, SingTel.
