A netizen shared a story about how she falsely believed that investments were a sure guaranteed way of making money.

She then invested all her savings on investments and ended up losing it all and had to work as a ktv hostess to earn her money back.

Here is the story:

“I saw many success stories about investments on Facebook and YouTube and whatnot, they were always saying how they managed to triple their income through investments and sh*t.

I wanted to try as well and I thought if I put all my money into the investments, like if I put in more I will get more right?

But fk was I wrong.

I lost all of my money on my investments and even borrowed money after that to tide me over.

I needed a quick way to earn my money back so I became a ktv hostess and drank with men, letting them touch me all over.

And for $300 I would spend the night with them.

Investments are not a guaranteed income, you need to do research…

Don’t be like me.”

Editor’s note: If investments sure earn money one, everyone rich liao loh
