I am just an employee of a business. I am not a business owner. I do not hang leg, I work a regular 9 to 5 job. Because I am not a business owner and I am a 9 to 5 salaryman, I have to create additional income by investing in a passive manner that is within an acceptable / tolerable risk to reward ratio. Passive as in I cannot be in:

I) MLM, UT or Insurance chasing after people to buy those stuff,

2) I don't have the luxury to sit in front of my computer monitor to look at Forex, Stock Market, futures, options or binary trading etc.

I say, you don't have to be in an extraordinary position to do extraordinary things. I am your template of an everyday regular Joe doing regular things to achieve extraordinary result. What I am doing is be mindful of the types of investment in the market (its risk, its cost) and the tax implication of each of them.

i think banks will be hit hardest since they form large chunk of epf investment, don't think EPF own much of carlsberg,  heineken

most likely if EPF throw the bank shares, local UT will pick it up

EPF don't invest in carlsberg & heineken. Haram bruce.gif

and yeah. conventional banks would be hard hit.

I've just got to know about self contribution for my stagnant EPF account (since 1990) recently via LYN. My question is for those who self contribute via Maybank online.
I've tried it today and 'click' on self contribute and it said max contribution is $5000. Can I repeat the self contribution everyday, up to max for $60k for this year?
I'm unsure what is 1M contribution. Am I right to click only on 'self contribute'?
Is it better if I do it OTC at Maybank with $60k deposit? Will it affect my dividend if I pay 5k for total of 12 deposit online vs $60k lump sum OTC?
Hopefully someone can advice. Thank you in advance.

EPF's Shariah savings scheme open for registration on Aug 8
QUOTE
EPF chief executive officer Datuk Shahril Ridza said the retirement has allocated an initial fund of RM100bil, which is about 15% of EPF's total investment asset of RM681.7bil as at March 2016.

Applications must be submitted by Dec 23 and will be on a first-come first-serve basis.

Is it advisable to maintain or change to shariah compliant?

I believe the low hanging fruits will still be given to ASB; not sure whether the shariah compliant will be able to match the ASB dividends.

What's special about Simpanan Syariah? They put "Siapa Cepat Dia Dapat" term, but then say Simpanan Syariah don't have 2.5% minimum dividend guarantee like conventional EPF. How do member switch to SS? Do they specify how much they want in RM or %, or convert entire EPF to SS?

Is just marketing to make people convert. If no marketing, it don't look intetesting. How to publish in newspapaer that no of takeup only x% (1 digit).? Compare that news that xx% took up Simpanan syariah. Which one sounds better? brows.gif laugh.gif
Convert all. Once converted, there's no changing back.

The initial size is RM100 billion. Don't think is compulsory for Muslim contributors to change to shariah compliant. Its still optional, I think.

heheh - momma said don't invest in something if the "seller"/management isn't invested in.

Private yar.. so why create:
a. something WITHOUT a bottom? ie no minimum 2.5%pa
b. something which cannot be changed? ie cannot revert back to normal EPF

"to be seen as religious" purposes or some other reasons?
eg. er.. less stress to manage something that doesn't have a bottom? tongue.gif

dunno - just thinking out loud

Yeah

The Syariah compliant is just that. Religious compliance.

The low hanging fruits will always be given to ASB ,which is pretty much like BR1M, a tongkat for certain sectors of the population.
Keep it in ASB.

Apparently members can only choose between Simpanan Konvensional or Simpanan Shariah but not both
