口说不如身逢,耳闻不如目见。

口说不如亲自去做,耳听不如亲眼去看。

口说不如身逢,耳闻不如目见。

The quote in Chinese above states that

  • It is better to experience doing than just talking about it (口说不如身逢)

  • It is better to observe and verify than to only hear and believe (耳闻不如目见)

From 2009 - 2019, I have been a lecturer, teaching the gospel of finance and entrepreneurship.

The common quote is that those who cannot do, teach. While I continue to believe in the value of being a teacher, the “real” learning comes from the doing.

Since 2019, I have been investing and running businesses.

While I cannot claim of any wild successes, the journey has indeed been fun and enriching.
