QUOTE(vondutch @ Feb 24 2017, 09:59 AM) @Haziq yes if u understand the risk no problemThanks for the clarification. But I think the pros are still more than the cons. We are getting 4.8% instead of the normally given 5.0%. Thats 0.2% discount. If for example I take 100k loan that easily translate to around RM200 saving per year. If I plan to hold for at least 3 years (which is the min to get some decent return) then the saving will be even bigger. So I believe RM1000 is really nothing compared to the saving in interest rate that I can get especially if I am planning to hold for long to medium term. This is a no brainer choice for me even with the UT risk. But of course if other bank can offer similar low rates without the UT pairing requirement then that would be even better and should be our first choice. Lowest interest rate is my priority especially since the return from ASB is getting lower and lower. promo rate 5% 100k = 536.82 promo rate 4.8% pairing with UT 100k = 524.67 different = RM12.15/month @ RM145.80/year Im just telling the fact so other people out there know the risk. Invest in UT is good. Im also advise other people to invest in UT. Just make sure have the proper knowledge. This post has been edited by haziqnet: Feb 24 2017, 10:20 AM |

QUOTE(adamhzm90 @ Mar 3 2017, 12:25 PM) Hi bro, Yes correct. It will include in the processing fee of RM63. You need to pay this in your 1st installment. anyone can confirm we need to pay RM10 stamp duty fee for CIMB ASB Loan within first payment? QUOTE(gonzalo20 @ Mar 4 2017, 11:22 PM) next month i will be 2 years taking loan for asb 200k. my interest is 5.1%. should i cancel and reapply to get better interest rate? if u dont have any problem to pay for the current installments u can just go on. But if u want to get the lower rate yes u can always terminate and reapply. is the method of apply, cancel and reapply make more profit? or just stick for the 30 years loan? Or if u r eligible you can maximize OPM by adding another 200k financing and get the lower rate. You can switch to pay the lower rate installment and for your current asb 200k pay by using the dividend. By doing this u can earn more profit than terminate and reapply for the better rate. PM me for more info. This post has been edited by haziqnet: Mar 5 2017, 08:25 AM |

QUOTE(mohamadf @ Mar 4 2017, 03:37 PM) Hi, i am new to this thread and 28yo this year. I just apply CIMB 200k ASBF for 30 years with RM1073 per month after 2 years of working to save emergency fund of 6 month. I am planning to terminate the loan after 3 years and repeat the process again later. hi there.Hopefully i can follow buggie path to achieve financial freedom congrats for your 1st step to achieve financial freedom. The best way to maximize profit actually is not by terminating and reapply but to max the OPM. Your current rates now (5%) is already the lowest (put aside the 2 month 4.8% special rate) If u r eligible try using the hybrid method by adding another 200k (asb2) to max out your ASB loan to 400k. This method will be a good choice and give you more profit if u dun have any intention to use the money in the near time. Please take note the compounding effect will be much bigger when you hold your loan longer than start afresh after few year. Comparison between compounding and hybrid method. Look at below : Compounding method ------------------------- 200k loan terminate after 3 years Your estimate profit compounding dividend = 43,295 Principal = 9,313 Total = 52,608 Nett profit 52,608 - (1073 x 36) = 13,980 @ 39.19% ✔ Hybrid method ----------------- 200k loan (1st year) 200k loan (2nd year) Terminate after 3 years Last dividen (1st year loan) = 13,500 Compounding dividen (2nd year loan) = 27,911 Dividend balance x 2 years (after paid for 2nd year loan) = 1248 1st year principal = 9313 2nd year principal = 6053 Total = 58,025 Nett profit 58,025 - (1073 x 36) = 19,397 @ 50.21% ✔✔ Between the 2 above method which one do you think give more profit at the end with the same amount of installments? This im not calculating if you hold the loan much longer assume 5 years and above. I just want to show you what you will get if u optimize the OPM. Any further question PM me.

QUOTE(gonzalo20 @ Mar 5 2017, 08:35 AM) look at my post #1908. I explain about the hybrid technique. about the switching method your current 200k asb rate is 5.1% quite low already. so rather than you terminate your asb its preferable to add another 200k asb (max OPM). This time you apply with 4.8% rates (need to follow the T&C look for my previous post) ok now assume you already apply the 200k loan with 4.8% rates. Your monthly is 1049.33. What are u going to do now every year, your first 200k loan use its own dividend to pay for the installments And your 2nd 200k loan use your own money. Do u get it now by switching? By doing this you not just pay with lower installments but also get more profit at the end. For this 2nd 200k loan u can use ASB2 or apply under your wife name for ASB1. about the 4.8% rate pm me so i can assist you. TQ This post has been edited by haziqnet: Mar 5 2017, 09:50 AM |

QUOTE(mohamadf @ Mar 5 2017, 11:26 AM) Hi Haziqnet, Yes you will use the dividend from the 1st 200k to cover for the 2nd 200k...but if ur 2nd 200k have lower monthly installment you can switch it...try to read at my previous post...u use the available dividend from 1st 200k to pay for its own installment and for the 2nd 200k use your own money. Thanks for the reply. From what I can summarized from Hybrid method is for 2nd year I need to use dividend from my 1st year to pay the monthly for the 2nd year. Also need to open LASB2 for 200k in order to maximise the ROI. The different between the compounding and hybrid method is i would have the extra principal from the LASB2. Am I correct? If u dun want to open asb2 account you can always use family proxy who u trust like your wife or siblings age 18 years above to apply for asb1. By using hybrid method u can get 200k (gross) about 8 years while using the normal method about 9-10 years. So if your goal to get 200k in a few years hybrid method will be faster.

QUOTE(mohamadf @ Mar 5 2017, 02:32 PM) Hi voncrane, Thnks bro..yes correct...we are not getting profit just from the dividend but also the principal which is include in our installments and will be refund to us after terminate the asb...13980 is the nett profit. already minus the capital from own money. it is free money generate from the capital. From what i understand about LASB is we have advantage of the principal return to us after terminate and the dividend of the loan amount. Rather than get the dividend of our saving which is significantly lower. We also earn profit from the ASB bonus which calculate separately.

QUOTE(honkkydorry @ Mar 6 2017, 10:25 PM) I am asking on behalf of my next door neighbour akak who is not so tech savvy. Is it advisable to take ASB loan at 45yrs of age and with only RM500 extra fund per mth available for savings? She told me her ASB account already at 180k so I guess max loan can apply is 20k only right? Is it still worth applying loan? She got open ASB2 acct and already max 200k but $ in tht acct are not hers.. belongs to her sisters who tumpang her acct cos their own accounts apparently already penuh. At that time, she didnt think she will ever need ASB2 for herself as her ASB also not yet penuh. Now she said segan to ask her sisters to return the acct to her.

Good thing to know, it IS worth it Dun just believe what u read in blog or FB especially if the person are not pro in that field...they can tell as much as they want but most of it are misleading explanation and without proper calculation.They are just wannabe pro investment but actually know nothing. When i see such person in the real world when i ask to debate face to face they will avoid it like a coward. you can call them a keyboard warrior but very stupid one... as long as you do your asb financing / loan with the right method and what are you capable of wont be a problem... so just sit back and relax. |

QUOTE(voncrane @ Mar 9 2017, 02:39 PM) Given the recent decline in interests + bonus announced each year. Did some more calculations on how interest and bonus is calculated to arrive at the real interest to be applied on amount invested and have decided to save using own money instead of the loan. Starting with say RM50K and consistently paying per month for say 10 years (same as paying a max 200K loan anyway....willpower present) yields more cash at hand in the end than using the loan. Yes, some arguments can be made that one could use that startup cash elsewhere, but the benefits of using one's cash at this level outweighs that of being tied to a bank loan and subject to additional fees, interest fluctuations and what else in the future. if im u i will just try ASB financing for 1 year and find whether im in loss or not. Rather than be too analytic but no action it wont give you the real result. ASB financing are no more lock in period so you can terminate anytime you want. PM me if u r interest to invest. |

QUOTE(mohamadf @ Mar 9 2017, 03:03 PM) For your case if have 50k cash to put in ASB then it is better.

If you have 50k of capital and put in asb u could get as much of profit like u make asb financing. But with that much of money 50k i will apply for 750k asb loan (RM48,313.92/year) if eligible or if im not i will use family proxy who have payslip and use rolling dividend technique. To show the differences and how much i could get by optimize the capital (50k) here i show u the calculation if terminate 750k asb financing after 1 year Assume dividend 7% = 52,500.00 Principal SV = 750,000 - 738,934 = 11,066.00 Total = 63,566 Nett profit ------------ RM63,566 - RM48,312.92 = RM15,253.08 @ 31.57% of profit✔✔✔ That calculation above is the power of OPM...Which one will you choose between optimize OPM with asb financing or just save your 50k into asb after i show you both potential return above?

For that asb loan 750k first 400k (asb1+2) you can apply by your own but for another 350k you need to use proxy. If u dun believe family members than u can use your wife as proxy if u already married. I will not explain any further as you are too analytical person and you will always reason with more question even though you actually already understand. Person who are afraid to risk their money are not suitable for investment. I will advise you just put your money into asb saving. Its more suitable with you. What you are trying to prove will give misleading to another people who understand the investment risk and make them afraid to do so although they dont need to. As long as the given asb dividend is higher than the bank interest its still profitable and there is no need for you to afraid of. This post has been edited by haziqnet: Mar 9 2017, 06:25 PM |

QUOTE(voncrane @ Mar 9 2017, 06:18 PM) It's money.. It either grows (ideally) or reduces. I'm no pro, but no noob either to the investment world. There's a difference between not willing to take risks and being cautious of said risks and or simply believing another's calculations. Which is why i do mine, have it verified, make an educated decision and jump in. All done pretty quickly. Work hard for me $$. Sorry bro if my statement is a bit harsh. Its not my intention to do so. Actually your calculation is no misleading and its correct. But when you question too much that will bring to misleading. Some people wont understand like u and me...some will think asb financing is too risky which are not.I'm not out to prove anything or think my posts are misleading, as you've attested to the fact that the numbers are sound. I'm just posting to let others who may be in the same boat as I, to know that there are other favorable options to simply taking a loan and working for the bank. Make informed decisions as well. Thanks for the assist. Im here is to help other people with the same objective. Asb financing is one of it. If u r not too analytical asb financing is the best tool and can help you to reach your goal in short of time by optimize OPM. Some people only need to have money to buy their first house, some may want to married and so on. With asb financing they will need to do force saving because its loan by the bank. But with asb saving they might use the money mostly rather than save it. I already help few members in lowyat with their asb financing. Im giving them free consultation as long as im live. No problem so far and they are happy to do it. Therefore i hope we will end this here. If u really like me to help you with the calculation im glad to check it for you. Just pm me.

QUOTE(buggie @ Mar 9 2017, 09:29 PM) Let me break it down... and you'll see why loan is still better... I like how you explain things...much easier to understand...i only know how to show with calculation...gud bro buggie...So to summarize Own Savings: "Total Amount Invested: B.A + (RM1074 * (12*10)) = RM178,880" Loan : Total Paid (to bank): RM128,880 To make things fair... if i had 50k to my name from the beginning...adding that 50k to RM230,746 (total in ASB after loan 10 years). You'd end up with RM 280,746.00. That's 3k less than RM283,105.85 (save on my own with the 50k as base amount). So yeah, savings here make more money. But! Since I can't put that 50k in ASB because of the full 200k sijil, I'd have to put that 50k elsewhere, say ASB2. I'm not gonna put that 50k under my pillow right? You put that 50k to work for you by putting it into ASB. So, that 50k works for me in ASB2 @ 6% Compound that by 10 years, I'll have RM 89,542.38 So.... RM230,746 + RM89,542 = 320,288. At the end of 10 years.... I'd make 320,288 - 283,105 = 37,183 more In both instances, we expend the same amount of capital (monthly + cash in hand). All things being equal, utilising the loan, i get 37k more... go figure. That's why, even if i have 200k cash in ASB, I'd take it out and still get the loan. So far, I haven't read any pro-own savings arguments that holds up. This included. No offense intended. And... consider the fact that not everybody have 50k in cash. Most will start from scratch. So take that 50k base out of the equation and you'll still find loan is better. Either way. |

i will explain to those who are not familiar about ASB in the simple way as i could.
Firstly you need to know ASB is the only platform that provide loan facility. Other platforms you need to invest using your own money either lump sump or regular savings. How ASB give profit to their investor? 2 source of profit dividend distribution and bonus. How can i optimize my asb potential return? If u want to optimize your potential return the ideal way is by applying loan and max it out. Currently both ASB 1 and 2 you can max 200k for each account. What is the price per unit for ASB? ASB unit sell at a fix price RM1.00/unit. Therefore if you put 10k, in your ASB account means you will get 10k of unit. Is there any charge when i buy unit in ASB? No, FOC If i apply for loan are there any extra charges i will be paying using this facility? When you apply for loan, you will only need to pay for processing fee RM63 one time only and also bank interest rate include in your monthly installments. The rate is using effective rate not flat rate like housing loan. No other charges include ASB termination. The only extra charges you will need to pay if you apply loan facility with TAKAFUL. Do i will get penalty when i terminate my loan below than 3 years? Today most banks provide loan facility without lock in period. Therefore you can terminate your loan anytime you one. But keep in mind, if you terminate below than 1 year, you might pay more interest to the bank and your return might be negative. My advise minimum duration to apply for termination is at least after 1 year. Do i need to take TAKAFUL / INSURANCE provide in the loan facility? If you are asking me, its much better if you do ASB loan facility without takaful. This is because we do ASB for the sake of investment therefore is no need for you to apply for takaful. Most banks now takaful is not compulsory. You can apply loan with takaful or not. Minimum years for takaful coverage is 5 years. What are the benefit of TAKAFUL? If you apply loan facility with maximum takaful coverage if anything happen to you, TAKAFUL will paid for the rest balance loan you still available and your heir will get the same amount of your loan + available dividends in your asb account. But please take note, if you take partial takaful coverage example only for 5 years, you will not get the same coverage like with maximum takaful. For more info about this you need to ask the takaful provider as i cannot provide you with the details. Can the bank interest rate change and if that happen will I need to pay more or less? Yes. When the 1st time you apply for loan facility, you will lock with the current rate. For example the current rate is 5.2% (BR+1.3% + 3.9%) therefore this is the min amount of rate you will be charge. But if the BLR (Base Lending Rate) or BR (Bank rate) is increase than your installment also will increase. For islamic ASB loan facility the max rate have been set to 10.75% while for conventional ASB loan facility the max rate is not set therefore it can be higher than 10.75%. If you want for better rate try to look out for promotional rate offered by the banks. How to terminate my ASB and how long will it take? You can submit termination by fill up the form at the bank you apply the loan facility. Usually after you submit termination form it will take 2 to 4 weeks to fully terminate. But some cases it can drag to month. After termination the principal surrender value and available dividends + bonus will be transfer to which account? After termination, all the principal surrender value will be transfer into your bank account while for the available dividends will be transfer into your asb account. This are the only questions and answers i can provide for now. If you have any further question dont be shy, just ask here. Hope this will help you guys. Thank you.
