QUOTE(Hansel @ Sep 6 2010, 09:13 PM) No, Cybermaster,... one reason why some poeple can't save is not because of discipline, it's just they don;t have any money left to be saved. Sadly, there are really such people around. Hence, for this group of people, the loan will help them to "save some money for the rainy days". To save via FD, one must use money that comes out from own pocket. To save using the above method, one uses other peoples' money. Both ways will get you the 3.5% provided it is not hit by the BLR. Well i always believe that no matter how much u earn there will always be room for savings. We should always live within our means but sadly some dont. If u can afford to pay a loan then u can also afford to save. Most ppl take ASB loans and then earn some residue interest on it but waste money in so many other ways. |

Good to see the Government is planning to use all this Amanah Saham money to fund the 100 storey tower under the recent Budget announcement.

QUOTE(MilesAndMore @ Oct 22 2010, 12:47 AM) The final cost won't be just RM5 Billion. Just look at the new Istana Negara in Jalan Duta  I recently attended a high profile forum with some renowned figures in the corporate world including some top guns from PNB. The 5 billion price tag was just a ball park figure. No study was properly done. No preliminary design or evaluation of costs. It was merely something pulled out at the last minute to spice up the budget. So the final price can (and will) balloon considerably when you take into account inflation and other 'handouts'. Be prepared for a RM 8 billion final price tag at the very least. |

QUOTE(Hansel @ Nov 2 2010, 12:46 PM) Guys, you need to be part of the gang before you can get the 'big handouts', ie not everybody can be the main cons and the sub-cons in the above projects. ..there is no free lunch for people like you and me. Political parties are involved, funds are transferred. Look at the overseas forums and their comments on our mega projects and the political parties - really scary. mind giving me some links to these forums? |

QUOTE(MilesAndMore @ Nov 26 2010, 11:29 PM) No. You will not get the dividend before Christmas. Instead, you'll only know the dividend for this year and only have access to the dividend + bonus on 3/1/2011. I am saying 3/1/2011 and not 2/1/2011 because 2/1/2011 falls on Sunday. I thought announcements on ASB dividends are made in January and we're only able to access it about 1 week after that? |

QUOTE(cheahcw2003 @ Dec 2 2010, 06:02 PM) usually annouced in mid December and paid out in 1st week of Jan This time PNB could declare a much better dividend for the ASB just to make the Bumiputera's happy and make them vote for BN in the coming elections. |

QUOTE(smartinvestor01 @ Dec 7 2010, 12:32 AM) Yape, nothing for the chinese to be happy, i was having a few thousands, and just in order to invest in ASN fixed price funds, i have to try to deposit most of the time.. Most of the time is sold out, but i can only try my luck for most of the time.. Really envy for those ASB holders who can deposit anytime they want.. Actually there are many Chinese n Indians who are also 'investors' in ASB. The ASB allows investors of Siamese and Portuguese decent to also invest. Many of those form this group are actually Chinese and a smaller number of Indians too. |

QUOTE(Hansel @ Dec 19 2010, 03:00 PM) Have to agree with the above, PNB funds are very well protected in terms of capital of the investors'. Well,... until now, that is, to me, a major risk is if the Opposition wins in the next GE... No such risk. These funds will still remain. Probably there will be more funds for the minorities to invest in. |

QUOTE(MilesAndMore @ Dec 21 2010, 01:26 PM) Not shabby at all For the amount of money they are spending on crap white elephant projects and the amount of money being wasted through corruption, 8.75% is hardly something to be happy about. |

PNB could have paid out 11.4 sen per unit dividend in addition to the 1.25 sen bonus. But instead chose to pay 7.5 sen. Damn! http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?f...44&sec=business |

QUOTE(VerdictReview @ Jan 3 2011, 02:46 PM) Yup me too wanted to withdraw at CIMB so crowded, alot of people rushing in....I will wait till 3.30 usually less people there..hoping  Why the heck would ppl wanna withdraw from ASB? Isnt ASB supposed to be long term savings? If u notice, most of those withdrawing from ASB are those from lower income groups many of which will waste the money on unneccessary spendings. Such a pity! |
