hi.....i'm kinda stuck with this FD thing these few days while i'm think about it...i got a small amount(around 8-10k) in maybank FD for almost 10years+, i checked each 1or2 years, the growth is very slow and getting slower compare to first 5years, can advice what can i do with this small amount, at least better than this FD? looking for long term investment.

hi sifus, i've just checked my maybank FD where its already yielded for some time like since my kindergarden till now(25yo), say 8-10k inside(current), and the interest rate is 2.85%......i was thinking is it rather low for the time being?

QUOTE(kparam77 @ Aug 11 2011, 01:11 PM) what 1-2% only... better keep in FD. or go for BOND. but u still very young..25old? why 1-2% only? don't want more than that around 6-8% pa. 8% - inflation 3% = still got 5%. sorry for mislead, i mean 2.85 + 1 or 2% p.a or more than what i expected....

QUOTE(kparam77 @ Aug 11 2011, 04:22 PM) tat is 5%, the better but not the best ............... AS 1 malaysia. (but still has risk.. u need to read the AS1M prospectus) want to try the great public mutual? r u will happy with 6%? balanced fund? 60% in equity and 40% in BOND. it can fit ur taste. but u still can go for BOND funds. more safer than equity funds. (but stil has risk too.) u can start read this topic from beginning to get some idea abt UT investment. hmm yea....quite interested in UT.....will take a look, and 6% is projected rite? kinda looking into some fast 1.....although i know the risk....
