Just finish reading all the post. Sad that nobody taken this opportunity for any real discussion.
Anyway, I was in a very similar situation as you were in early, 2019. Can’t remember the event, but the market dipped 5%, and I managed to find a bargain down 15%. But when I found it, I had a few hours to make decision because I know there were 2-3 more interested party.
The same question/doubts I had on my mind, what the economy going to be like in 10-20 years. As in, would hk become like taiwan, where asset price are high but returns are super Low due to the low gdp. Political reason like other people mentioned, opportunity cost of investing the funds.
I took the deal because I know I ultimately want a portfolio of 45% real estate and 45% equity. And 10% mixed of FX, Gold/Silver and crypto (for gambling).
I don’t live in hk anymore due to the virus, and I left the house vacant, but I know if I rented it, the cash on cash return would be around 5%. Still negative cashflow tho, unless if I rented it out as mutiunits, but too much hassle.
I see a lot people arguing whether you could do 10% returns a year. But if we just looked at the average return of S&P500. And you picked the right mutual fund or index etf. You should, hopefully, get a low double digit return.
Anyway, want your opinion/open discussion on the following:

As a primary home, would it be safe to say that we don’t really need to consider the investment nature of the property. As theoretically, we won’t sell it. Of course, I’m ignoring the fact that we can take out equity (if it appreciates) or the fact you are building equity to it when you pay down the principle. If that’s the case, all we really need to consider, is whether the down payment could be invested elsewhere with a significant higher return. But since no one can predict, with high probability of winning ratio, then why not split the bet on property and equity. I’m currently reading about Kelly’s criterion. I think it be the key on your initial discussion here. It’s about money management or basically, how to split up our bets. (But you sound very aggressive and wanna all in on everything lol)
Seems like we be running into a bear market. Do you have any plans or strategy or any ideas on how we can profit out of this? Talking to my fds recently about this. They are storing up gold to hold value and they plan to buy google, amazon, Tesla and Facebook when it tanks.
Do you only buy into options or you also trade index? If so, do you buy London listed index or just straight from us listed funds?
Would you mind sharing your strategy for discussion? (I’m still trying to build my system)
I have also looked at investing elsewhere. Only capital or major city, London, New York, Toronto, Sydney, Melbourne. If you take in to consideration of taxes (assuming you have no tax arrangements and pay full) seems the cash on cash return are very similar to hk. Or maybe just 1-2% better. Was wondering if you have looked into overseas market and have any findings.
