even bumiputra finds it very difficult to top up ASM, let alone open a new account... 

Good news for my parents.. They invested RM50k inside..

They invest it when Wawasan 2020 1st open to public..

No of shareholders have decreased
907,624 in 2012 -v- 899,967 now
D drop most likely from 5,000 n below category

Moving forward, u will notice d no of holders in other categories:-
5,001-10,000
10,001-50,000
50,001-500,000
500,001 n above
will increase year on year basis.
Dis means existing holders alredy/will tighten their grip as the benefit of compounding is very effective

Can we go open/top-up ASW2020 on 1~2 Sep 2013, since there's a small chance to get it ?

Good to here this actually. I read the chinese newspaper SCJP under business section, (ystd ) the taiwan famous stock god Hu Li Yang stated, the game money is OVER, is time to stop all investment and put the cash under the pillow. Thats scarring! The stock market will be affected for 10 years long...

I hope the PNB's ASNB "standard statement" is the REAL statement, not just confronting the investor..... Esp for the variable price unit trust....

always follow this route:

ASB - 8.+%
ASM / AS1M / ASW2020 - 6.+%
ASN / ASG - floating @ 5.+% (effective)
FD - 3.+%

Alredy standby $ to top up on 2/9/2013 

time: there is because waiting time at the asnb counter could stretch for 1 hr...
cost : there is no cost involved...my office is next to asnb office

U want some.....
Come n take some.....

both bro, why?
errr... asb full liao... they dont allow any more additional cash inside... huhu... (because i took the 200k ASB loan)...

yea. Please don't drop below 5 %

Wat u gonna do if ASW2020 runs wild n declare 4%? 

nothing much you can do. at least you earned something. that's what you get for investing in low risk / no risk funds

As other i can apply this quote but for ASG i will bang wall

I don't think you can be lucky for more than 3 decades and 2 major economic crisis yet still be consistently providing returns that beat most estimates and/or benchmarks

There's always possibilities in both good and bad times in the economy. We should by now realize that economics up an downs are just cycles which can trigger due to many factors that are beyond our control.

If an when the next economic downturn comes, the warning signs have come early enough for us to make preparations. As the Oracle from Omaha says, maybe it's time for us to be greedy when everyone is fearful?

Case in point: if anyone bought MAS shares after it did its stock split exercise or even you bought it less than 3 weeks ago, you could have made 9 cents profit just last week

Or a more relevant example regarding this thread; if those ppl ignored the early sentiment regarding as1m, they would be very happy now because they were greedy when so many were fearful

yape, well, i have the same doubt, but i dont really care how they do it as long as they managed to give me the returns that i expected every year.. 

Hopefully new fixed price unit trust to be launched..haha....

Come out with the Amanah Saham 1Mission also never mind..
