Interesingly, I am into investing for both the passion and the rewards (i.e. the money lah). It's been very invigorating for me to convert from a passion for music/songs to one for investing, as it is a great intellectual exercise for me to analyze companies and I thoroughly enjoy it (this includes the numbers hehe). At the same time, investing properly can generate good rewards and a consistent return for the practitioner, which is even better!
I guess as d.o.g. says, investing for now it just a "side-line" as most of us are healthy enough to earn active income, and are gainfully employed. I will start to fret if I come close to retirement age (or rather, unemployable age of about 50). It's good to know I have a cushion of passive income from dividends.
Moving forward, yes I hope to increase my portfolio size further to increase the stream of dividends coming in, and this will ease my burden when I hit my twilight years.
