    Why are you passionate about investing ?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2019 05:51 PM PDT

    What is it that drives your passion for investing ? I personally hold tremendous respect and to this day still get butterflies whenever I get to read about investing (literally) and it makes me the happiest man alive and was wondering what drives to like investing ? Personally, at first, I just got caught by the "bug", I wanted to live and breathe investing and the idea of making money out of money was genius (I was 12 at the time) and then it just stuck by me. Over the years I've discovered that investing has more to do with the fact that it reflects my natural attributes. Such as:

    • Have tremendous skin in the game, I'm a personal believer that equity investors hold the ultimate risk in any business they hold capital in.
    • Can learn about the world as I learn about business. Throughout history, business and economics have been one of the main factors that have shave who we are and through business I can continue to see the current and upcoming human trends and psyches.
    • Investors are looking for the truth and there's a clear scoreboard.
    • I love digging for information but I get bored quickly because I am good at exhausting everything there is to read on a certain topic, but with finance there's always something new to analyze, read, learn. You're never 100% right in investing, you just became less likely to be wrong.
    • Learn valuable skills that can be transferrable.
    • reading a lot
    • Make $
    • I originally come from a MENA background where I saw the disastrous effects of having no free market and no capital to start anything at all. Seen a lot of bright and ambitious people being stopped by the lack capital to kickstart themselves.
    • Can understand life through business such as fundamental social reactions to events and trends.
    • it's just who I am, I feel like when I read about businesses and investing, i'm me.

    All this being said, what's your reason for being passionate about investing ?

    Successful loan approval criteria- Jack Ma

    Posted: 02 Aug 2019 02:12 AM PDT

    Recently read about Jack Ma's retail and corporate lending company. The article mentioned that over 3000 real time data points were being tracked to successfully preempt whether a loan should be sanctioned or not.

    Any ideas on what a few of them would be? Given the higher rates of defaults being seen today, their portfolio has experienced just 1% of defaults.

    -Major real time data points to track/ criteria for loan underwriting and approval. Preferably not just p/l or b/s data as that could be lagging as well as doctored.
