AK shares his views on Singapore Banks, REITs and IREIT Global for 2024

[@plantedtrees4193]

AK brings so much value to this channel. Enjoyed this episode tremendously. Please bring him back soon.

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

We will!

[@Iendleasereit]

I second this strongly. And it's even better their chemistry is great. Love their ping pong two way dialogues. This is the perfect host for AK. Love listening to AK + fifthperson combi.

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Haha! We've known each other for more than 10 years. Glad you like our combo!

[@FoodieWarrior]

I always watch an episode with AK in it. If interest rates fall, REITs should fly.

[@curioushamster4616]

AK single handedly prop up DBS and IReit - the only greens among all the red today!!! 😂😂 Thank you, Fifth Person, for the all the good content!

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Thanks for watching!! 📈

[@tomasboba8327]

the charlie munger of sg! thank you for having him again!

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Haha. I think AK would be the first to say that he is far far from Charlie Munger (RIP).

[@kevinlai6851]

Awesome to see AK again. very much appreciate his viewpoints and humour. does remind me a bit of buffett and munger.

[@valuabletips560]

Agreed on ireit global, i am also invested in it, their spain assets were also under rented meaning the rental yield is below market rate and they are already earning profits on it which is a plus since it can usually only go up

[@64ytb]

Thanks for all the good tips. God bless. I realised that making money is also a skillset I can learn, just like any other skills. At the end of the day, you really can’t bring money to your grave, it’s good to know that AK is doing something good for the needy students. I can only hope more rich people are like that.

[@karenlye4493]

Thanks to Fifth person for the good content. AK brings so much value to investors.Hope to c u again.

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Our pleasure!

[@simcn73]

Well said AK .. interest rate will not be near zero again in the near future

[@Connoisseur-lv6ny]

Been following AK since 2014. Please bring him back again for his valuable insights 👍🏻

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

We will!

[@karenlye4493]

Always enjoy listening. Thanks for sharing.

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Thanks for listening, Karen!

[@Eilyfu]

Thank you AK and Fifth person for the insightful sharing !

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Our pleasure!

[@Curbalnk]

I remember when everyone said that you can't go wrong investing in REITs. Maybe so but -58% is many years worth of yield poof! GONE! Lost about $160k because of this madness still thinking if i should sell or still hold.

[@zainalabidin1835]

Tq...great to hear from AK

[@garypeanuts622]

actly AK not working can use BLUE CHAS card @ pte dental clinics which is cheaper than poly.

[@shienchuan]

What is the capital?

[@Aki-wq6xh]

Love this. So useful. I subscribed after this

[@mohdnizam5244]

Ak how about gold investment

[@labopanalop2016]

For the right context, have you asked him how much capital depreciation during the same period in Reits and in bank shares?

[@ivanp9222]

AK is a good chap ❤

[@ryanwilliams989]

The banking situation is a reminder that Fed hikes are having an effect, even if the economy has held up so far,” It’s precisely at times like these that investors need to be on guard against the next certainty. First SVB, then signature bank and now first republic bank, these are all the signs of yet another 2008 market crash 2.0

[@acathia]

I like Adam's definiton of stingy/frugal!

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

If you are stingy with yourself, you are frugal. If you are frugal with others, you are stingy! 😂

[@Hhhhwwww123]

Good to see AK again 😊

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Indeed!

[@jacksonyang2577]

I always enjoy listening these interviews, especially the jokes from guest like AK ASSI

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Thanks, Jackson!

[@panamood7455]

Whats the name of the s-reit 100% japan, being named in min 20:00 ?? Im having issues understanding. Thank you!

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Saizen REIT was the only Singapore REIT which had a 100% Japan portfolio. It delisted in 2017.

[@panamood7455]

@@TheFifthPersonChannel thank you 🙏

[@poorpotato7623]

Worrying is genetic la, cannot change one. Solve one problem liao another will pop up to worry about.

[@superconnie5003]

Mr AK holds 80000 DBS?

[@12345wwww]

I won't invest in IREIT Global. Europe is not the place to put your money as most economies there go into recession.

[@tumelomiatumelomia8239]

Hi, is it ireit global or ireit global europe that AK is invested. Thks

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

IREIT Global (SGX: UD1U)

[@tumelomiatumelomia8239]

Hi. Thank you so much .

[@MrBoliao98]

I disagree about banks. They were good during Covid and now still. But there will be a repeat of 2016 2017, and then you see the bank stock. Doesn't mean I will ever let go, but I will wait to add to my position.

[@abdulhalimmohamedanwar1087]

Haha! Can produce a bloopers compilation edition?

[@sassy19a]

Haha love his participation, very funny always

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

"Rusmin say funny can already, don't need substance." -- AK

[@kichia-lk4ql]

"You think I am funny? Funny how?!" - Joe Pesci The not so subtle tension and jab at the end is obvious. 😁

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Nahhh.. we're all good. We rib each other all the time 😁

[@SGMaleKaren-si3gw]

AK's sharing about the various future risks to consider got me thinking about the question of political risk. With the growing discontent on the ground with the ruling party due to cost of living, perceived overspending, COE prices etc., I worry about what will happen to our currency, our economy, and our share prices if and when the PAP gets voted out. Could you do a video discussing the possible what-ifs to consider in such a scenario please? Whether the change in govt happens in 2025 or another year in future, I still worry about the impact. Thanks!

[@bigno1900]

dun worry la, pap will never lose an election by majority because of GRC and gerrymandering.

[@taeyeonist1462]

there will not be a change in govt in 2025..unfortunately

[@SkyDread]

As a non-Asian, at 12:30, I was not sure if he was joking at first ahah

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Hahaha! Just a joke!

[@SGD515]

Go through his personal videos. There are some contradiction.

[@ericcsn]

You can see AK struggling to talk to keep up with his wealth of wisdom and knowledge in his head.

[@momomushi7780]

AK is Adam khoo?

[@TheFifthPersonChannel]

Different person!

[@BeachBoi1000]

AK committed serious crime😂

[@emilylow4611]

Why AK always hiding his face?

[@takanna]

he is sharing his finances and money is such a sensitive issue. why would he want to show his face! spare a thought for him.

[@ivanp9222]

Why u don't show your real picture to yt?

[@singlim2327]

Dentist should go JB

[@darrenwong1719]

that "don chi" know...

[@GodTell7]

Atlast AK say” bye” 😂
