Case Study:Nanz-Chong Komo,Former Fashion
Model & Entrepreneur
Saturday, 23 February, 13
8. B-BALANCE
In the late 90s, Nanz-Chong Komo founded
the ONE.99 shop in Singapore
This “value-for-money” concept took off in a big
way
ONE.99Shop grew to 12 outlets in three years,
with a tripling of sales over this same period, from
S$3.5 million to more than S$12 million
Saturday, 23 February, 13
9. B-BALANCE
However the SARS (Severe Acute
Respiratory Syndrome) outbreak
occurred in 2003
SARs eventually caused the rapid demise
of the ONE.99shops!
Because the fear of contractingSARS
kept many people away from crowded
areas
The retail industry was severely hit . . .
Saturday, 23 February, 13
10. B-BALANCE
Nanz grew her outlets too fast, and
over-leveraged
Her business model, which targeted
thrift, meant that people needed to
buy low-cost items in bulk
However people were not going out
to buy during those dreaded times!
Saturday, 23 February, 13
11. B-BALANCE
Her main income was on the business,
which had an inherent sustainability
problem, due to its low average
transactional cost
Nanz was declared a bankrupt in 2003
Fortunately she learned from her
failures, bounced back, and was
discharged from bankruptcy in 2010
Saturday, 23 February, 13
12. B - BALANCE
Similarly,if your investment portfolio is spread only towards a
particular asset class eg: Business Investment, it becomes
overweighted to one side
Learn to balance the Portfolio at all times
This is to protect your assets as well as to maintain growth

18. E - EXPOSURE
Limit your Exposure in risky assets to your portfolio
The risky assets may make you BIG cash at some point in
time, however if they are not managed properly, you can get
severely burned
Saturday, 23 February, 13
19. E - EXPOSURE
Develop optimal performance by being true to yourself
Peer pressure is not an excuse to expose yourself to risky
investments
Find your individual risk profile through risk assessment tests
Or talk to a trusted financial advisor with proper credentials

Baldwin Park into a fast-food empire
Saturday, 23 February, 13
23. A - ACTION PLAN
Torres's family slowly transformed the couple's initial,
tiny drive-thru shop into an estimated $1.1 billion
empire!
Saturday, 23 February, 13
24. A - ACTION PLAN
However little is known about her, her
investment decisions and business acumen!

business training, and simply inherited the
West Coast-based company from her
grandparents, Harry and Esther Snyder
According to the Bloomberg Billionaires
Index, In-N-Out is worth more than
$1.1 billion
Saturday, 23 February, 13
25. A - ACTION PLAN
But . . . those were the
consequences of her elders’
actions!What about her own?
Can she lead this company
beyond 3 Generations?
Or will she continue to be a
trust-fund baby?
Saturday, 23 February, 13
26. A - ACTION PLAN
It is a must to possess an Action Plan
There must be a direction and plan to keep your
investments going
Don’t let inflation, and a lack of prudent investment
action erode away your wealth
