Why You Should Ignore Market Noise When Investing in the Stock Market
The stock market is always reacting to recent market news. The price of stocks can go up and down every single day from current news that’s happening. Warren Buffett famously said that like dieting, successful investing is far easier to understand than to accomplish. This is because it requires discipline. However, many investors did not realize that they are always affected by market news from various outlets. They are impacted by the market noises that are happening in the stock market. Market noise has become appreciably louder for most consumers since the internet has become widely available.
If you are still new to the stock investing world, you need to read this article. Many amateur investors fall into this market noise trap. In this blog content, I will explain what market noise is and what causes the market noise to occur? Lastly, investors should ignore it and use this market fluctuation to their advantage when investing in the stock market.

Why Living in Indonesia is an Advantage for Me to Build Wealth
Jakarta, Indonesia, is my hometown. This is the country where I was born. However, I was mostly overseas, living in Singapore and the United States when I was young. It was a privilege for me to receive my education from developed countries. If it wasn't because of my father working hard, I wouldn't get this kind of opportunity.
After graduating from San Francisco State University with a finance major, I decided to move back to Jakarta, Indonesia, to pursue my career. I did regret coming back too soon since I wasn't making the kind of income I was hoping for. I should have tried to apply for a job in the United States after graduating from university.
It has been almost 8 years since I moved back to Jakarta,
Indonesia. I did think about how my life would be if I had stayed in the United
States instead of moving back to Jakarta, Indonesia. I know I could have earned
and accumulated wealth if I had a decent paying job in the United States.
However, after doing some critical thinking and comparison, I concluded that
deciding to move back to Jakarta was the right thing for me to do.
I know working in my father's company doesn't generate much
income for me. I could have made a better wage if I was working in the United
States. However, I believe living in Jakarta, Indonesia has its own advantage
for me. Despite earning a meager income, living in Jakarta, Indonesia, is still
perfect for building my own personal wealth. In this article, I will explain why living in Jakarta, Indonesia
is excellent for me to build my own personal wealth. Moreover, I'll explain why
moving back to my hometown is the right thing for me to do.

How I Became a Millionaire by the Age of Thirty
I'm thrilled that I could become a millionaire with the low wage I'm getting for working in my dad's company. Each month, I receive Rp25,000,000 for my paycheck. That's approximately about $1,778 if converted to U.S. dollar (November 17, 2020). The amount can still fluctuate since the currencies always change every trading day. My wage is considered a lot in Indonesia; however, if you compare it with the United States wage, it's really low.
Despite my low income, I was able to become a millionaire by the age of thirty. I believe anyone out there can also become a millionaire if they are willing to learn and manage their personal finance well. Becoming a millionaire is not as hard as you think it is. Anyone can achieve it if they put the work and dedication to it. In this article, I will share what I did to reach millionaire status by thirty. Most of my personal wealth is invested in the stock market; I will show my assets. Moreover, I will explain how you can do it too.

Want to Learn about Stock Investing & Build Wealth: 9 Reasons Why You Should Buy My Book that I'm Soon Going to Release
Because I felt I made a tremendous financial achievement at the age of thirty, I felt that I wanted to share the knowledge and information with the world. I felt that many people out there are not managing their personal finance wisely and have no plan at all for their retirement. During my free time, I wrote my own book about building wealth through dividend growth investing & creating new income streams. The book's title is called "Snowball from Zero," but this is still a prototype, and changes might be applied.
I have not finished writing the book yet, but I am currently halfway through writing. So far, I have written approximately close to fifty pages, and believe I still have many things I want to write. I have designed the book front and back cover, but I might still want to edit it. My goal is to have the book finish written by the end of 2021. Hopefully, I can finish writing and have it published at that time.
The book I'm currently working on is intended for the people out there to learn basic building wealth through dividend growth investing. Moreover, it also teaches people new ways of creating a new stream of income. I really believe that the book I plan to have published is excellent for anyone curious about building wealth and stock investing. It is great for beginners and someone who already has some understanding.

Why Bitcoin Cryptocurrency is a Bad Investment: 5 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Invest in it
If you have no clue what bitcoin is, I am here to explain it to you. Bitcoin is a digital currency created in January 2009. Bitcoin offers the promise of lower transaction fees than traditional online payment mechanisms and is operated by a decentralized authority, unlike government-issued currencies.
Bitcoin has indeed increased in price these past several years. Some even made a fortune investing early into Bitcoin. Fearing of missing out, many people invest their life savings into Bitcoin. I have many friends who believe in Bitcoin and have invested their money in it.
I am not against blockchain technology that is a decentralized ledger of all transactions across a peer-to-peer network. I believe that blockchain technology is a great invention. Using this technology, participants can confirm transactions without a need for a central clearing authority. However, I am against investing my money into Bitcoin. This article will cover the reasons why Bitcoin is a bad investment and why you should avoid investing in it. Bitcoin does not have any intrinsic value to it, and it is just a hype where many investors decided to invest in it.

Why I Don't Day Trade or Try to Time the Market
There are many ways how you can make money in the stock market. One method is to day trade. Day trading and investing for the long term are both viable forms of securities trading, and many traders opt to do both. Day trading involves making trades that last for seconds or minutes, taking advantage of the short-term fluctuation in a stock's price. With day trading, all positions are opened and closed within the same day.
Many of my friends have asked me why I do not day trade. You can make money by day trading; however, this method of making money in the stock market is something I dislike and do not pursue in doing. I used to try learning how to day trade. When I was still a beginner in investing in the stock market, I tried doing some day trading when I was still studying in the United States. It might seem easy and fun; however, it is actually pretty tricky and stressful.
This is why I decided to do value investing as a method to make
money in the stock market. I believe that investing in the stock market for the
long term suits me more than day trade. I want to explain why I decide to not day trade or time the market
and choose long term value investing. I believe investing in the stock market
for the long term is more beneficial and also more profitable.
