When You Should Borrow Money To Invest
One of the most common question I get is this: is it a good idea to borrow money to invest in investment ‘x’ (the ‘x’ can be unit trusts, ASB, properties, business, Bank Rakyat shares, etc., etc.)?
Let me answer the question in real world terms.
What to do with your money in uncertain times
I’ve received a number of queries about the current financial turmoil raging in the US and basically throughout the world.
“What do you think of the subprime crisis in the US?”
ASB loan mmg dah lama dah kat Mesia ni, tapi masih ramai yang ragu2 samada berbaloi ke invest pakai loan atau pakai cash jer? pada aku, aku amik loan pasal nak disiplinkan diri menyimpan, ye lar, kalau harap cash masuk setiap bulan mmg susah la bro. Dgn cara ni, aku paksa diri aku menyimpan…
Lagipun charge yg di kenakan agak rendah, baru2 ni Maybank promote flat rate for the rest of the loan tenure, bukan staggered macam dulu… Lupa lak bape rate nyer ari tu.
The Imminent Collapse of the Financial System
I’ve been doing a lot of reading about the state of the current financial system in the world today. And I’m getting this sinking feeling about the whole thing. I’m beginning to develop the view that the current system cannot go on for much longer. It is so tipsy that it is not a matter of ‘if’ it will collapse anymore. Instead, it is just a matter of ‘when’.
It would take a book by itself (and perhaps even more than one!) to explain the points in complete details. But I’ve decided to summarize the points for your benefits. I must forewarn you that this article is a bit longer and also more complex than the usual. It needs to be – we’re talking about the state of the current financial system here!
The Book Of Excuses
One of the funny things (at least it’s funny to me) is hearing the excuses people give to justify why they are not rich. What’s ever funnier is that the people call them “reasons”; I call them excuses.
Throughout the years, I’ve heard excuses such as “I don’t want the responsibility” to “people would come to rob me” to “I’m too young” to “I’m too old”! I’ve heard the works and now would like to share them with you.
Salam,
Artikel ni saya copy & pasted dari email yg saya dapat. Semoga ianya menjadi panduan bagi diri saya dan kawan2 semua….

Ketagihan Internet
Adakah kehadiran teknologi maklumat dan internet dalam dunia ini telah menjadikan sesetengah kelompok individu menghidapi sejenis penyakit atau kecelaruan yang dikenali sebagai ketagihan internet (internet addiction disorder) atau pun ketagihan komputer? Adakah ia sejenis penyakit baru, yang sebelum ini tiada dalam istilah perubatan? Atau mungkinkah sejenis gangguan yang telah sedia ada dalam diri individu terbabit, sama seperti ketagihan dadah dan arak, tetapi ia berlaku disebabkan oleh komputer dan internet? Adakah komputer atau internet juga boleh menyebabkan ketagihan?
According to Chinese astrology, I am a tiger. “Rrrr!”
Right about now, some people are nodding their heads and uttering the words “No wonder”. Some others are saying, “I knew it.”
As a male tiger, following its namesake, I’m supposedly fierce, moody, strong and protective of my turf. I don’t know; the description applies to practically all the males who ever walked on this earth!

Since it proved to be a hot thing, I’m answering more questions this month.
As usual, the questions are presented the way they came in - broken English, wrong grammar and all.
1. FEATURE ARTICLE: FOUR “MUST READ” BOOKS
One of the benefits of being an airline pilot is that I get to travel the world. Whenever overseas, I would take the opportunity to buy books that are not available and those that are difficult to get in Malaysia. I’ve in my collection books from Japan, China, Taiwan, Argentina, UK, Australia and of course, US.
I’ve benefited immensely from these books and know that you too can only get better by reading them. So what I’ve decided to do is to buy the rights for those books and share them with you. Other than making it available for you, an additional good thing is that I have gone through each one personally so you know the books are of proven quality.

Maybank has enabled its Maybank2U users to add up their Amanah Saham Bumiputra (ASB) investment via Maybank2U.com portal. This is a good step taken by Maybank to enhance its Maybank2U usability and encourage more people to do online banking. However, this function only applies for ASB purchases only.
