“The only thing that doesn’t change, is change itself.” I believe that when we came to this Earth, each of us was granted with a set of special gifts. Some are more obvious than others, but we all have our strengths and these are the cards we have been given to play with when we sit at the table.

Funny enough, I’m not the best guy around to update you on my own portfolio. I really like blogging about dividend investing, but I don’t talk too much about my own stuff. Once in awhile, I think it makes sense to share my portfolio with you (my portfolio page is currently up-to-date, yeah!).
