Five years back on 1st January 2019, I started REIT-TIREMENT to share my experience in personal finance and Singapore REITs. Looking back, it's been an exciting journey of learning and connecting with all of you. I wouldn't have imagined I could blog for such a long period when I first started. Let's take a trip down memory lane, remembering how REIT-TIREMENT started and how it's changed over these last five years.

Most of the recognition came in 2023 and I have added these achievements to the about/contact page. I am grateful to InvestingNote, Tiger Broker and Sharesight for their generous recognition. I'm also thankful to all the readers who've been a part of this journey, contributing and supporting REIT-TIREMENT. Your engagement and encouragement mean a lot.

The blog's journey has been about learning and connecting with a community passionate about personal finance and Singapore REIT. As the blog progressed, I shifted its focus toward exploring Singapore REITs more deeply. Each post and interaction with readers contributed to this evolution, shaping the blog into what it is today.
Throughout the past 5 years, I have posted 873 posts including the current one, which is an average of 1 post every 2.1 days. Below is the breakdown in types:
- 610 x REITs Review which form the majority part of my blog
- 173 x REIT Posts of the Week that consolidated lists of posts shared by other bloggers or YouTubers.
- 15 x Personal Finance where 4 are about games to learn personal finance. The most viewed post would be Sell HDB and Buy a Condo or Two?
- 47 x REITs Investing posts in which I shared REITs ideas and case studies including 7 x comic strips and 1x guest post.
- 28 x Others, mainly on SREITs Dashboard and SREITs Data pages updates
