If property investment can be learnt from a uni lecturer that earns few k a month then obviously that theory doesn't work otherwise the lecturer won't be where he is now.

with all due respect.

As good as useless because all are shallow theories. Which form-5 student able to find a proper job in the physic industry with that level of knowledge?

You're slapping your own face

don't twist and turn.

Not to mention Singaporeans have much higher income.

That's the real problem though!

The 90% is real borderline living hand to mouth everyday. What happens when the price shocks hit them?

When a loaf of bread costs RM4-5, these guys are going to be hit really bad. When that happens......people should start to be worried...

Aisay, many of the young folks have their parents to fall back on if any cash flow problems. Investors ( ie long term) are always prepared to ride it out as inevitably, there will be corrections along the way. Personally, I doubt there will be huge crash in Msian property mkt coz even though it has gone up a lot in hot areas, it is still the lowest in the region.
For those who will be cash strapped coz of over leverage ( big time flippers) from a correction, you will have to take your losses. There will always be this category of buyers in any markets. By the way, I have no sympathy for them as they would have made their bundle in the bull market.

It's best to buy what, in your opinion? 

The general prices of property in malaysia over a long period (for eg. 10 years) has never came down. It is quite a linear upward graph. With the exception of a few individual projects

Dunno. I read so many ppl here say BBB, UUU !    Don't buy got some money where to put huh?  Buy shares ok or not this economic climate? You reckon put $ under bantal better izzit? 

If he look at the gold price for the period of 1971-1980, 1981-1990, 1991-2000, 2001-2010, then he will know gold price fluctuate a lot. It is not like malaysian property which is generally a steady straight line upward trend

Never know property mgmt pro. exist!  Got such outfit in Malaysia , meh? 

When Jib Kor says w/o gst we'll go bankrupt, MAYBE it's not a slip of tongue / misprint after all. 

But Let's not panic. Instead let's put our heads together to see how to save our own skin!

2014, you all going to invest or not?  Any good solutions?
