I got it.
They are selling at 25% over market price.

My friends and I have done thorough research on Genneva Malaysia’s business model including background checks and the purity of gold. We are confident the company has a sustainable business model and the gold is genuine.

Should anything bad happens, including war or in the unfortunate event that the company disappears; we’ll still be holding on to 999 pure gold that can be sold and converted back to cash anytime.


How is the business sustainable? Wasn't clear to me.

So if the company disappear, sure I can sell the gold & get cash back. Just at 25% loss.

my fren invested in the Gold Bar with Geneva, the plan is

buy 100gram from them and they promise you a 1%(1.5% if you buy more) return every month.
you cant return the gold at the first 6 months
you buy the gold above the market price

Actual profit or deal i can't post here as it will violates the forum rules smile.gif

If you sell the gold bar to outside like Poh Kong/Wah Chan you will definitely lose another xx% i heard.

The capsule is not included I purchased it separately.

1) Purchasing a Kijang is fairly easy, withdraw money from the ATM downstairs.
2) Head upstairs to the first floor counter 9. Its the last counter with a door.
3) Knock the door to enter, give your money and the nice lady gives you a Kijang + receipt.

My next target, will be a Aussie Kangaroo from UOB laugh.gif

Gold expert, what do you think about my investment way icon_question.gif

- I buy 100gram gold jewelery cost Rm 17 120 (999 / 24k)

- I go to Bank Rakyat to do PAWN BROKING ( http://www.bankrakyat.com.my/arrahnu )

- They give me 70% of the gold value = Rm 11 984 ( so technically I only pay Rm 5 136 for the 100gram gold )

- Next month that 100gram gold jewelery new valued is for example Rm 17 500 ( looking at gold price keep on increasing )

- I go and overlap my current debt - Rm 17 500 - Rm 17 120 = Rm 380

- I'll keep doing it every month and within 2 years I will get my Rm 5 136 back and after that it's all benefit


* The higher gold price increase, the more I get biggrin.gif

Hi caerulln

Good ?????s

Their selling price is 25% over spot......they have already covered their risk.
Afterall they are payin only 1.5% x6months = 9%. They have a profit of 16%[SIZE=14]
Remember the contract is only for six months. You have to renew, meaning maybe theres
other charges at renewal.
Like PT Barnum said

QUOTE
There's a sucker born every minute


IF the price of gold went down , they are hoping that this will cover.

Next, they are always trying to generate sustained sales. Thats why they are marketing
in a BIG way.....that the future sales will cover any present shortfalls, which they do not expect with the price of gold
trending up. think Ponzi? whistling.gif

So for them all risks are covered. The interest given is a coated candy to buyers.
BUT as pointed out, YOU ARE PAYING YOURSELF! rclxms.gif

Suckers do not see this. They only see

a) Gold price going up. You have to admit Gold IS generating lotsa interest. It could be any other
product for this biz.....could even be bunga rayas! nod.gif

b) WOW! They give interest! Think outta the proverbial box! rolleyes.gif


Lastly IF gold price goes up theres NO problem for You o the company.
Problem is only when Gold tanks, which in fact i do not forsee in NEAR future

So, caveat Emtor..... wink.gif

So let me ask u, in the worst case scenario which u don't foresee, but lets just consider it anyway, gold price fall off the cliff, what will the company do? How about the promised dividend?

Yeah I'm focussed on the dividend. Isn't that the company's main point unsure.gif
I don't understand this statement:

Again yes we're buying gold. Just at 25% above spot.

Let me be clear, assume gold price dive into the deep abyss, how will the company pay the dividend?

That seems like quite a big risk there.
I'll let someone else more knowledgeable about gold think about this.

As always, invest only what you can afford to lose smile.gif

This was my question.
As u are avoiding it, I take it that the company will go bust & their promise of dividend & buy-back just evaporate into thin air.
That definitely is not long term sustainable.
That's all I need.
Thanks for the lengthy explanation (even if not very useful at all) biggrin.gif

Price Spread per gram*


guys, what does "Price Spread per gram" mean?

I know it is the buying price and selling price but why the SPREAD is different among banks? Price spread per gram RM5.50, RM5.20, RM2.00???? I am confused.

It is up to the banks to determine how high they want to sell their gold.
So up to us to choose wisely smile.gif
