What dreamer is saying is EPF have no choice. Others one is given a choice to invest in GLC or not. Dreamer is asking us NOT to invest in GLC but remove that money and dump it overseas or simply hold cold hard cash under out pillow.

MGM,

Come on.  If the economy crashes and NEVER RECOVER, you asset in Malaysia will not be appreciating.  In fact, it will go down.

<<I believe I could easily get a job in Spore  >>

What if Singapore economy goes down too??

Why take the RISK??

You have ENOUGH.  If you are DIVERSIFIED across the world, you do not have take any of this RISK.  So, WHY are YOU doing THIS??

You have NOTHING to gain but EVERYTHING to LOSE.

If RM remains at 4.40, then who is the dummy ? 

Showtime747,

The past is gone.  So, let's see whether ASx holders are making a wise decision by staying in ASx between NOW and end of the year.

That one cannot believe.  THey said RM won't go past 3.8 last time. Sadly my parents still believe in them. 

Somebody would be so sad. 

Let him answer lar, why u answer for him

Cannot compare, his mutual fund is investing in global, established, large cap stocks...whereas my portfolio is more diversified.
In those years when Asian stocks rallied, my portfolio would have beaten his...

If wanna compare apple-to-apple...
The closest I can get here is CIMB-Principal Global Titans Fund...

Y-T-D returns in Ringgit terms is +20.8% in spite of the weakness in US and Europe, all thanks to the weak Ringgit

Not too bad? Considering that I can conveniently invest in it at minimum of RM200.00 per buy transaction.

But to invest in that Vanguard fund...the transaction fees with foreign broker, it just won't make sense if u invest in small sums.

That's why I've always said, invest in offshore-managed mutual funds/ETF is not for ikan bilis investors, because of the transaction costs. Yeah, u saved on the commission, but the other transaction costs will eat into your gains.

When u give advice, u gotta take into account your audience.

It's like a Mr Millionaire saying that Mercedes-Benz C class is the best value car u can buy to an audience of youths who can only afford RM80K+/- cars.

They'd go, "Screw u...who doesn't know your mum is a woman..."

Correct me if I'm wrong.

i guess he lacks empathy. he was probably never in the situation where he only has a small amount of money to invest. with small amount of money, don't think it's suitable la diversify the investments till like that
