incredible. you are future tycoon.

1. assuming the house when u initial purchased is 220k, outstanding loan 98k, so
220k-90k = 130k DOWNPAYMENT.

2. BOND = 20K

3. FD = 220K

4. CASH = 10K

TOTAL = 130K + 20K + 220K + 10K = 380K

You 28, service engineer, assume u graduated at 23(the earliest), working experience = 5 years.

RM 380,000/60 MONTHS = RM 6333

RM 6333 excluding all your expenses.

this is very healthy, but, i think it is bullshit more than anything.
*
pls, the world is bigger than u think, i have engineer friend who bought 300K house within 3yrs of working with CASH, 2nd house in another 2yrs later. another friend may not be that capable but owning 3houses with loan but more in FD/share.

for TS case, we do not know whether he was working part time b4 and for the past 5yrs if u invested well from 2004-2007, u might have make a sum from stocks, probably he cash out n put in FD. that was just my assumption based my friends' experience. unsure.gif

afterall, if TS keep his expenses low, he doesn't have to earn 10K/m to get wat he has now.

I assume u know O&G engineer can make alot of money if u r very very hardworking...

@santaclaus,
do respect here is not Kopitiam.
U can always ask for clarification on 20K for insurance, in this case, I assume is policy value. it was not mentioned under liabilities.

yes, i wonder too, 36 months, CASH in buying a house. who on earth buy a house with cash even though u really have that much of cash in ur pocket?

an fresh grade with 3k start is consider LUCKY.

come on la, u think everything in oil and gas came with huge figures? petronas will spend 20 milion usd to buy and build an oil rig and platform, but, it does not mean it will hire any normal fresh grad with 6k salary.

maybe ur friend is a department manager once step into the oil and gas company. so, i think the gm or director is rather dumb by hiring fresh grad on this post.

anyone agree with me ?

one more thing, dont always say ( MY FRIEND THIS RICH, THAT FRIEND THIS RICH ), if that is the case, proof me the wealth.

what i learned is, the real rich people will never tell u how rich is him...................................
*
as u mention , rich ppl never tell u how rich they are, perhaps this fren of mine got other income that i don know. Probably only he can do it coz most of the time he is oversea and he never own any car or luxurious watch or phone, stay in sister place , can consider he save up >90% of his nett income. I m not in O&G business, i reserve my comment on how much they can earn. unsure.gif Just be open with what ppl wanto claim they have earn n save up, it is always better to ask HOW than say NO WAY.

My example of mentioning this fren is not to lift my status , but to indicate that there are ppl out there that can earn n save up alot. If I bought 300K house with cash , i will say so. biggrin.gif

@yewkhuay,

Thanks, I like polite people.
Ok, clarfication. Thats the total Insured sum. I think its very little right? But I dont quite trust insurance. What can I do next?


Added on September 11, 2009, 6:11 pm
1) Correct

2) True.. and partially dont know how to invest and dont know when i want to stop working immediately.

3) Very pandai lah!
U can read my mind is it? yeeeeeeeeehhaaaa
*
then i think is best for u to tell insurance agents wat u do not trust in insurance and see if they can clear ur doubt, since u plan to do something about it. there are a few insurance thread here, u might wanto go through some of them.

I ain't rich yet but I always consider myself to be a rich person. So most of my friends are going the same path as me. Know one in Melaka for example, he finally owe the bank 1 mil.
That is when I congratulate him.

congratulate him for "Owe the bank 1mil" ?

Yes.

If one can owe the bank 1 million and repay timely every month, how much do you think his actual income would be?  notworthy.gif

pls explain further on the debt tht ur fren is having, and by having a mil debt and able to pay back doesn't mean he has a good net worth, it takes one recession that hits ur fren to wipe out everything he has.

Ahh, yes. Most people only think that debt is just debt.

I have to tell you this, there are a few individual out there will know their difference. If the debt you are borrowing will generate income for you, that is good debt.
Likewise borrowing money to buy an LCD screen to show off, that I would consider a bad debt.

Now, he owns some property and one of them is a oil palm plantation.
If he would to go through a recession, his net worth might be down, but that wouldn't break him.

You got any debt to equity ratio that you use?
*
tht's d reason y i ask for explaination on what kind of debt he owe bank before I assume anything (businessman also have millions of debt that generate $$ for them...), and yes, i know what is good debt n bad debt. I myself have few 100K debt tht generates income for me but I do not think i need to be congratulated. as long as u have debt, there are variables that can turn bad.

Financial assets , investments all inter linked a s far as I am concerned.

Can we talk about Assets alone, without touching on personal liabilities, meaningless to me . hmm.gif

I guess moderators here are not very farsighted , lacking in financial planning knowledge per se. notworthy.gif

Networths always associate with risks.

After all ,it is not politically sensitive kinda discussions aka real world issues  , anyway.

I think u misunderstood what is moderator and what is elite. smile.gif

Once your net worth reach RM1 million, then to get RM8 million should not be a problem. The 1st million is always the most difficult.
