Framework of this Blog

Dear Friends,

I want to clarify the framework of this Blog.
I just began my value investing journey, and this blog is meant for me to pen down and hence clarify my own thoughts on the subject of value investing as well as to share with my friends.
Therefore whatever is written here are from my own amateur ramblings and NOT expert nor well-researched opinions please.

My investment philosophy is as follows:

(Why invest) Invest for passive income;
(Invest in What) Find Economic Moat;
(When to invest) Have a Margin of Safety.

Being an ordinary salaried employee, investing is a weekend job (mainly the stock market) with the aim of trying to create a steady stream of passive income to sustain me and my family (sole-bread winner) when I eventually retire.  Learning from the investment methods of Warren Buffet and value investors, I try to find businesses with a sustainable economic moat, evaluate their intrinsic value and buy them at a price with a reasonable margin of safety.

Note the words trying in my sentences, I realised that there is a psychological or emotional dimension to investing that I need to overcome, i.e. sometimes decisions are made from emotional considerations rather through logical thinking haha =P
Also partly the reason for this blog, as I find the writing process helpful in the clarifying the thought process.
