Condo

dewVP — Sat, 10 May 2014 14:31:18 +0800

Hi, am looking for a condo to hold (rental income and potential future long term capital appreciation). Deciding to get one before the GST hike. Preferably not those projects not completed as worry that delayed project over the years. Budget around 600-800k. Freehold.

Still deciding whether to get one in mont kiara or places closer to Puchong/Bukit Jalil/PJs. Places that still have room for development. Unlike Mont Kiara which have already developed. Prefer big names like SP SETIA, Mah Sing as been reading the thread which suggest so.

Any suggestion? Really new to the property sector. Scroll past iProperty and spoiled with choices. Not sure where to start filter. I would believe that condo is a better investment than landed property? Is it right?

Criteria:
Freehold
600k-800k
Completed or soon completed projects
Don't want places like Segambut, Wangsa Maju. Prefer somewhere near to PJ/Bukit Jalil/Puchong/Mont Kiara (like that location where there are a lot of expat)

Thanks. Hoping you guys can help me out by providing some projects worth looking at that I can refer to..

AES SUMMON

dewVP — Thu, 23 Jan 2014 20:18:28 +0800

So happened I went to MyEG to check summon, and surprise to see one AES summon. I did not receive the hard copy letter till today. Got it last year September.

Heard from my friend after the maximum RM300, they actually start compounding the interest and his is around RM600+. True?

Is there anyone still paying AES? No discount?

Nike Shoes

Hi, been seeing a lot of people wearing those expensive Nike lately (Nike AJ). Can anyone explain the wide models of Nike? Air Max, Air Jordan etc? Each model suit what time of use.

Nike Malaysia don't seem to have the catalogue for their shoes they bring in. Sometimes the shoe you see in store is not unattractive, but the websites ones are.

PAR VALUE

dewVP — Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:30:26 +0800

I actually don't get the whole aspect of share par value.

From a forummer, he said AAX can issue a par value RM1 share, but the share will be RM1x. But instead they issue RM0.10 par, and their share price is RM1.xx

Par value is the original value of the share. But what does that matters what the par value is? Just a comparison with the share price? Diff between share price and par value is the gain in value?

Not like if company delist, and the share price is below par, you can get back par value right.

so what does above par and below par have an implication to investors?

do share share.

Couples (that together for a few years)

dewVP — Sun, 29 Sep 2013 19:02:55 +0800

Want to ask couples that are already together for a few years.

What do you and your other half do besides:

Watch movie
Breakfast/lunch/dinner
Shopping
Oversea travel
Go one day trip to other state

What other things that can be done? don't u feel bored doing the same thing after a few years?

The day in and day out same routine is the reason a lot of couples are in the comfort zone which some lead to break up I think.

So what else u and your other half do beside those listed above? do share.

Just Discussion

Compare stock to stock.

BMW 325i 0-100kph time 7.0 s
BMW 330i 0-100kph time 6.3 s

Golf GTI 0-100kph time 6.9 s.

And taking into consideration the DSG gearbox, the weight and so on. If the 325 and 330 and the GTI accelerate and achieve top speed. Which one would win in terms of acceleration and top speed.

Just curious.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Also,

Z4 0-100kph time take 7.0s
Audi TT 0-100kph time take 6.6s.

So the TT wins over Z4 and the GTI?

Newbie Investor in UT

dewVP — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 14:07:56 +0800

Hi fellow senior investors, lately I have started investing in bonds funds and I went for Dynamic Bonds Funds by AmBank. The reason being the return for the past few teas have show a satisfying % for me.

My doubt is UT can help investors earn through dividend (interest) annually and capital (when you decided to sell off your bonds. Am I right on this thinking?

BONDS funds return = annual dividend interest + capital gain (when you decided to sell)?
