[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.

    I absolutely believe in long-term investing. Buffett’s punch-card idea always reminds me that every decision should be intentional, not emotional. The fewer decisions I make, the more carefully I evaluate each one — and that mindset keeps me focused on sustainable growth instead of chasing short-term hype.

    If I had only 20 punches, I think I’ve used a handful so far on businesses I genuinely understand and believe in. Companies like Tesla and Palantir are part of that list — not because they’re “hot,” but because I see long-term potential in their technology, execution, and the markets they’re shaping. I’d hold them through volatility as long as their fundamentals and long-range trajectory stay intact.

    To me, long-term investing is about patience, conviction, and letting compounding do the heavy lifting. I’d rather own a few great companies for many years than constantly jump in and out of trades. Fewer punches — stronger conviction.

    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.

    沃伦·巴菲特的建议非常正确。虽然它看起来很简单（事实上也很简单），但它可能是更难付诸实践的方法之一，尤其是当行为偏见开始发挥作用时。因此，优先考虑“市场时间”而不是“把握市场时机”，可以让人们安然度过短期市场波动，并从长期回报的复合效应中受益。这种有纪律和耐心的策略最大限度地减少了阻碍回报的情绪化决策。

    将收益再投资以产生自己的回报&指数增长也是一个优势。长期投资实际上减少了投资压力——投资决策可能带来的压力令人难以置信，如果我们能减少压力，那就更好了：难怪“死人投资组合”的故事很受欢迎。

    我真的相信这种方法，尽管我能够坚持这样的柜台，只有大约50%的投资组合：3家新加坡银行，新加坡电信。
