QUOTE(wopai @ Oct 5 2019, 10:36 AM) Hi sifus, i'm planning to invest some fund into PRS...my objective is for long term investment & get the tax rebate...i understand the market is very soft now....should i invest now or wait?..if invest now, where should i invest? 1st I am not sifu. Is not tax rebate. Is tax relief. 2nd invest when market is bad. Is like shopping. Do you buy when things are cheap or expensive? I buy more when is cheap. 3rd where you want to buy and what you want to buy all depends on your risk factor. If you cannot tahan losses, safer ones are bond funds (which give you FD like returns or lesser) and reit. If you can tahan losses, can pick funds which invest in stocks (equities). Again where you want to buy depends on what you want. You want pure Malaysian fund or Asia Pacific. Only you know. Buy max 1 prs fund and max amount to put in is RM3k/year until 2021. Do not put a single sen more. Come 2022, if govt does not extend PRS tax relief, do not buy anymore. This post has been edited by Ramjade: Oct 5 2019, 11:24 AM

By the time you can withdraw is already 20+ years later, it doesn't matter what's happening now. Just pick a fund that suit your risk appetite and start investing.

can get tax relief of RM750 for RM3000, why not?
Recently i keep buy RM50 every week.
Pick a PRS by doing more research, example what is the benchmark you prefer? S&P500 ETF or China ETF?

Why is cheap for you may not be cheap for me and what is cheap for me may not be cheap for you. QUOTE(avinlim @ Oct 6 2019, 05:01 PM) Annual income below 50k can get till 750 tax relief? As long as you put in RM3000, you will get some relief. Paying income tax = say goodbye to your money. Money is not yours anymore. Buying PRS = money is still yours and can withdraw in 20-30 years time.

QUOTE(seancl85 @ Oct 3 2019, 04:59 PM) so eUT is better than FSM ? if so, why? For starter, compare the fees and sale charges between these two and see which work for you.. I don't use FSM, so I can't give a fair comparison. That said, there is no fee for the funds I bought from eUT.
