😂 just sharing for the points.
also, the focus here should not be who traded the most actually...but on the entering of the market timing. at times, we refrain from entering at the market highs and go in more during market downs. so perhaps, a timeline should have been included to show our enter points and the corresponding market price to assess if we entered at the peak or at the low. #justrambling here already as soo sleepy

not really a hilarious gift that I received but one where I sent the gift :p
office had an Christmas exchange initiative and my secret santee was a HR manager who seemed sporty enough.
15sgd was our cap. since lotions etc were quite common, in stepped in Mr bball. nicely fitting my 15 budget and something diff from the rest perhaps 😂 not sure who was more amused -- the HR manager or the people who saw me bringing the wrapped bball to work.
