Will share all the links at the bottom
DAY 3 - Landed at 3PM in #Malaysia from #Bangkok …
Started with a shocker - Forgot our passports in the airport trolley & had to go back 😢 2 hours wasted.
Booked Hotel in Central location. #AIRPORT to #HOTEL is 57 Km, takes 45mins to 1 hour
Used GRAB Taxi - it took us 80 MYR ~Rs.1500.
There is KLAI EXPRESS (Direct train to central) which charges 45 MYR per person. So for 2 or more people, Cab is cheaper.
Ours is unplanned itinerary, if you are planning before - Look at KLAI TRAVEL PASS. At 80 MYR, you can take most train & bus rides for 2 days + one way to KLAI Terminal
DAY 3 - THE MAJESTIC HOTEL 🏨
One of the best properties I have stayed. Original property is from 1932 & I stayed in an extended property estd. in 2012
COST - Rs.0 + 48000 Marriott points
How ? 15000 Marriott points from BONVOY card yearly free night + 25000 Amex points transferred at 30% bonus.
Actual price of hotel- Rs.62000
ROOM - Upgraded to Jr.Suite
- Free shuttle to KL Central for everyone
For people who want INDIAN FOOD, you can stay here - KL SENTRAL is 10 mins via. Shuttle and there are tons of Indian restaurants there. Or there are a few properties in SENTRAL itself - ALOFT, HILTON etc.
NEW TO INVESTING ? Few things to keep in mind … 📕📕📕
Most of them were true in my case
Overconfidence - Many individual investors tend to believe they can consistently pick winning stocks, leading them to trade frequently. This overconfidence often results in higher transaction costs and lower overall returns.
#Investing
Loss Aversion : Investors often hold on to losing stocks for too long or keep averaging , hoping they will recover, rather than cutting their losses. This reluctance to sell at a loss can lead to missed opportunities in more profitable investments.
Recency Bias: After experiencing recent gains in the market, investors may expect the trend to continue and invest more aggressively. Conversely, after recent losses, they may become overly cautious, missing out on potential gains.
