Autorenporträt

David Kuo is a scientist at heart. He read Chemistry at Imperial College London and went on to gain a PhD by investigating the transport of hydrocarbons through polymer membranes. He admits that it wasn't the sexiest of topics. But he said it did give him an opportunity to play around with one of the first-generation personal computers of the 1970s, improve his machine-code programming skills, understand how microprocessors worked, and he even managed to make dry water in his spare time. After he graduated, David worked in the family business in Hong Kong before spending a seven-year stint as a turf accountant at Ladbroke in the heart of the UK's horse-racing scene in the West Country. He fondly remembers the 1985 Grand National when a 50-1 outsider, Last Suspect, romped home to take the coveted National Hunt title. It just so happened that he was helping out at Ladbroke's outlet in the Oxfordshire market town of Wantage that day. He witnessed what seemed to be the entirety of the townsfolk cramming into a tiny betting shop to cheer the eleven-year-old local gelding all the way to the finishing post. It was a bittersweet moment. He couldn't have been more delighted for the people of Wantage. But it did wipe out his bonus for the entire year. He left the fast-money gaming industry to pursue something more sedate.... the stock market. At the turn of the Millennium - just before the implosion of the dot.com bubble - he joined the then start-up, The Motley Fool UK, in London where he honed his skills in financial journalism, broadcasting, investing, and market analysis. His no-nonsense, straight-talking views could be heard on the BBC, Sky, CNBC, Bloomberg, and Fox Business. He was a co-host on The Danny Baker "All Day Breakfast Show" on BBC London where he brought his unique take on financial matters every weekday morning. He wrote a column in The Independent on Sunday. He went on to become Head of Personal Finance before launching The Motley Fool's first Southeast Asian outpost in Singapore. With his grounding in UK broadcasting, David's views about financial matters found their way onto BBC World Television, CNBC, and radio stations that included BBC World Service and London's Talk Radio. He penned a regular column called A Fool's Eye View for Singapore's daily newspaper The Straits Times, and currently contributes to The Business Times under the banner "Diary of a Private Investor". He comments regularly on financial issues on Al Jazeera, BBC's Business Matters, and Money FM. In 2020, David co-founded The Smart Investor Singapore to continue his work of helping private investors invest for themselves for the long term. He passionately believes that the best person to manage our money is ourselves because only we can truly know what we want. He sits on the Singapore Exchange's Investor Education Committee that promotes financial learning. He is also the author of Your Path To Salary Independence. It is a book about how anyone can work towards achieving a dream in which they can control their own financial destiny. He has now turned his sights to helping parents prepare their children's financial futures.
