Guys, I just get a new Debt last few weeks - Myvi

My current working monthly payment around RM2.4k per month, plus allowance RM1.6k (since is partner company, so i cant simply take money), so normally i would take up around RM4k nett

Here is my current Budget list

1. House loan share with sister - RM500
2. Utilities(H/p,Unifi, Electrical, Water, Maintenance) - RM550
3. Food ( 99% eat outside) - RM600
4. Entertainment (smoking, Movie, Shopping, Drink, Party) (Tried hard to quit smoking, mostly over budget on this) - RM300
5. Car loan (myvi) - RM550
7. Car petrol - 300
8. [Financial] kampung 会钱 (kind of gathering of kampung ppl money, who need money, who tender it, some ppl might know how it work here) - RM500
9. [Financial] Share - Very depends on how much left, my budget is RM500, but mostly, less than 100 cuz spend over on Entertainment
10. Parents - RM200

For some reason, i am taking around RM4k from company monthly, so let assuming i am not taking more in this 2 years...

is that a better way to reduce my expenses so that i can save more on my share portfolio

here is some reason i choose share, becuz fix deposit offer too low %, mutual fund is not under my control(either need in cash or the invest %)

i have no idea on all of this already, maybe just a share what KL single people expenses....
to survive, i can do that
to live lively~ i dont think so

Hello all, I have a few questions.

How do you know if a particular property is good to invest in? Why nowadays people always say property is a good investment? If going by rental yield, say a apartment 215k and rent 1300, expense ~500, the yield is (1300-500)*12/215k = 4.4% only. (Do I need to calculate the total mortgage (principal + interest) too or just purchase price?)

Some bluechips stock give better dividend than this. If stay invested in klci for 37 years (1978-2015) will give 8% cagr not including dividend. Is the property gain better than this 8% in 35 years of mortgage? How exactly should we calculate the total return from property? Is it because property can be leveraged?

So is property worth to invest in? If so, what's the minimum yield I should aim for. Or maybe I should use the money for stocks instead? I am currently torned on which path to go. Thanks!
