Apple Care Protection Registration - Problem

Peatree — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 23:17:56 +0800

Hi guyz, just bought my Mac Book Pro together with the apple care protection package, however unable to proceed with the registration. Not only loading to the apple support website is very slow, it seem the page will not proceed. Early in the registration it ask for my country location, so I selected the one that says "show more country" since Malaysia is not in the list, however nothing happen. Even if I selected any of the other country in the list, nothing happen. The page will remains as it is.. No additional button to proceed with the registration. I would like to attach the screenshot picture so that you guys can see what I'm talking about, but dunno how to do so...hehe

Appreciate your help...TQ..

REal EstateInvestment Nobiie

Peatree — Sat, 10 Feb 2007 04:10:19 +0800

Hi guyz,

Before I start with my question, let me introduce a little bit about myself

age = 23
salary income = around rm2.2k
asb investment = around rm 80k

estimated monthly cash flow..
parents = rm400
savings to ASB = rm 1k
extra in my account (to be spend for myself) = rm 800

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since I'm still young and don't have any liabilty, I'm planning on buying a real estate property for investment purposes. My question are as the following:
1) Should I start buying re property or is it too early for people at my age? What type of potential economic risks must I considered before putting my money into these kind of investment.
2) At current financial background as I stated as above,what type of real estate investment should I venture (Apartment/SHopLot/etc). Series of low-cost apart/houses or few higher-cost RE propery? .my dad advice me to invest on shoplot but at these current market, u can only find a commercial property around kl at rm500k to 1mill...don't think I can afford that without taking extra financial from my dad though..
4) Any Malaysian RE investment book that good for non-finance people like me? I've read a few books by Azizi Ali and real estate investment book from some guy in US.
5) If I'm interested to know more about cash flow calculation and some finance calculation ( to calculae asset, btcf n etc), what books should I read I've taken Engineering Economics during my studies...It touch a little bit about cash flow, BTCF, ATCF, IRR and etc. Unfortunetly, I lost the book..
6) If you guyz have any suggestion on other type of investment, feel free to share with me (and if possible recommend on books regarding that matter)...Love spending my "not so busy" office hours, with reading.
