Very interesting threads, indeed .

If all of you would like to know more about Unit Trust investment from scratch or meant for rookies, I would strongly recommend this book for everyone.

Author: Jeffrey Gan.
ISBN: 983-2431-88-3
Title: Know Your Unit Trust Investment.
Price: RM27.90.

Description: It's about UT investment locally. My advice is, try not to get any foreign books regarding UT because some of the rules might not applicable locally. This book tells you from A-Z especially the basics. It covers some calculation and examples on which deeply helps you to understand further. Jargons and their explanations. Most important of all, the hidden charges you will incur per transaction. Your rights.

What I like about this book is, they gave lots of example for some theories.

Hope it will englighten all of you.

Trust me on this, after reading this book, you will know what question to ask the UT agent, the pro & cons and etc.

Try not to dilly-dally when it comes to knowledge enhancement . Grab this book and it's just 137 page, half the size of B5 , can be finished in a day.

A wise investor, is a person who knows what they are investing and not just park their money in on something they don't know and HOPE & PRAY for returns .

Sometimes you have to trust the agent, it would be better if the agent is your friends, well-experienced and care to educate you. Some of the crooks agents out there, they just want the commission and by the way the highest commission these agents will get is from selling you an equities. A good UT agent is an agent that sells you portfolio rather than units .
