Hope it won't be ended up in a direct sales/MLM scheme.

The increasing inflation rate will offest the interest you gained from FD. Investing in FD is not a very briliant strategy.

The interest of FD offers is less than 4%. Thus, it's not a very good type of investment. Even EPF gives 4.5% and ASN/ASB is definitely higher than that.

How to invest in your children? Don't worry about this early ... you'll get this responsibility once you get married.

My brother opened a PremierInvest fund before. I took the policy to my financial planner to evaluate and he said that this fund or policy is stupid. The protection and investment is low as compared to investment-linked insurance policy and mutual fund/unit trust.
So, I have no idea about this. I let my brother to decide and he terminated the policy after heard the advices of my financial planner. Stitchy® |

QUOTE(mobiusone @ Feb 8 2006, 11:25 PM) what if the central bank increase or decrease the interest rate? If BNM alters the rate, other institution banks will or must follow. Stitchy® |

My PM agent/financial planner said that PM is very careful with this new fund as you guys also aware that it's the first time PM invests abroad. He advised me to wait and see at this moment while keep topping up my investment.

This is strange as my financial planner is quoting a investment-linked proposal from Great Eastern Life. Anything fishy here?

QUOTE(dreamer101 @ Feb 11 2006, 02:00 PM) Folks, Help to enlighten us ... Until you know how to calculate investment return with some tools like Excel, you are at the mercy of whatever someone tell you. For insurance + investment scheme, unless someone tell you and you can trust the person, you have no idea how much money you paid is in investment versus insurance. This is adding an additional degree of complexity and confusion. This is a test. Can you tell the difference in interest rate between a housing loan and car loan in Malaysia?? A 8% interest car loan is equivalent to housing loan of how many percent interest?? Is it more than 8% or less than 8%? If you have a choice of taking A) 5 years 50K car loan or B) 5 years 50K housing loan Which one will costs you less interest? Dreamer  Stitchy® |
