Koon Yew Yin Will Be The Special Keynote Speaker @ Invest In The Future event

If you are still considering to go attend the event, this should tilt the balance. Malaysia's very own 'Warren Buffett', Mr. Koon Yew Yin will be the Special Keynote speaker @ Invest In The Future conference. Koon has consistently picked stocks that have been multiple baggers. During the event, he will be sharing some of his philosophy on investing and at the same time highlight why he is holding some of his preferred stocks now. An unmissable opportunity.

Mr Koon has founded or co-founded not ONE but THREE listed companies, namely Mudajaya, IJM and Gamuda. That would have been more than sufficient for a normal person's legacy. After retiring from the corporate world, he found a new purpose in investing. His track record is enviable to say the least, hitting more than 100% (as high as 300% in some cases) in Supermax and some smaller plantations counters. Further evidence has it that he ploughed in big time into Latitude and Heveaboard last year, and we all know how they have performed since then. Come and find out if he is still holding onto these stocks, and I am sure he will share on his newly bought counters as well. That alone is worth the price of admission. Not forgetting that we are all doing it for charity.

In his own words:

You can keep making money but there is no meaning to life if you don’t know how to spend it because you can’t take any of it with you when you die. You must use it effectively to help others and create more happiness. It’s more satisfying.

He firmly believes that education is key to escaping the clutches of poverty, having undergone such experience himself. He made his initial fortune by co-founding IJM Corporation Bhd, Gamuda Bhd and Mudajaya Group Bhd, three leading public-listed construction companies. He was also secretary-general of Master Builders Malaysia for nine years and a member of the Board of Engineers Malaysia and Sirim.

Money like age is just a figure. God will press the reset button and it will be reset to zero when we die. Go ahead and make money but don't forget to spend it to exchange for happiness. Happiness should be our ultimate goal in life. Money is just a supporting tool. Once you have enough money to sustain a reasonable std of living for yourself and your family, getting more money does NOT make you happier. At this level, you can be happier by doing things that you like that have more meaning to your life.
