Thanks for the advice on acquiring a mutual fund. Taking a look at how an investment firm has done in terms of their mutual funds may be a good indicator if investing in one of their funds is a solid option. Good post.

Hi, in my opinion, student has pocket money from parents. Hence, he can always start with a balanced fund, which come with free insurance (min RM5500 via Public Mutual Fund). Then, he can having monthly saving of min. RM100 until his retirement age. This is call cost averaging, at the same time, he will develop a consistent saving habit. When he started working, he can always add 5-10% of his income into the saving. This way, he is covered with basic insurance and started his investment at very young age. Resistance towards volatile market movement and inflation is high as the time frame is long.

@ Chaiwey,

There are always pros or cons in every investment. Choose the one you are most comfortable with.

I have some interest to invest in order to make money rather than only savings in Fixed Deposit. How do I plan my savings? Government ASM, ASW 2020, Government bond from BNM are better than private mutual fund company or insurance company?

for new kids with zero or entry knowledge, generally I would say buy index fund, save consistently same amount every month for at least next 2-3 years, then take a look how much it worths 5-8 years later. Especially at times like this, its safely said laughing on the face of FD.
