4 reasons I do not invest in mutual fund

With a financial education, a person does not need to pay a mutual fund company to lose their money. 4 reasons I do not invest in mutual fund: 1. A mutual fund's financial structure is weighted to the benefit of the mutual fund company, not you, the equity partner. 2. A mutual fund's expenses are too high and not fully disclosed. I put up 100 percent of the money, take 100 percent of the risk, and the mutual fund takes 80 percent of the rewards. That is not a good partner when it comes to finance. 3. When I invest in real estate, I use as much of the bank's money as possible, which means I get more leverage investing in real estate than I do with mutual funds. 4. I can lose money in mutual funds and still be charged capital gain taxes on money I did not make. That is definitely not fair.

Invests for Both Cash Flow and Capital Gains

A person with a financial education invests for both cash flow and capital gains. There are 2 main reasons why: Reason #1: A currency must flow from an asset that produces cash flow, or it losses value. In other words, if your money is just parked and waiting for appreciation or an increase in the share price, your currency is not productive and not working for you. Reason #2: Investing for cash flow takes most of the risk out of investing. It's hard to feel like a loser as long as cash is flowing into your pockets - even if your asset price has depreciated. On the other hand, if your asset appreciates, it's an added bonus since you are already collecting cash flow.

通过知识寻回优良价值

国家经济发展的过程中,从一个阶段进入下一个阶段时,会出现诱惑。如果能够抗拒这些诱惑,就可能达成发展,否则就只有短暂的富裕。 ~ 阿根廷学者 Grondona 诱惑,值得就是我们对物质生活的过度沉迷,因为生活在繁华奢靡的商品社会中,容易让人迷失在感官的刺激中,也容易让人在空虚的快感中忘却了文化,忘却了历史,也忘却了灵魂。所以,通过报纸,再通过知识,可以唤回文化的记忆,也可以寻回优良的价值。 存亡关头有人找上我,接手星洲凭一股勇气 “一旦关闭了,是大马华社无可估量和不可弥补的损失。在民族与文化的召唤中,我不自量力的走上了办报的不归路。回想 20 年来的蛮劲与傻劲,我不禁为自己当时的勇气捏了一把冷汗。” ~ 张晓卿

Notes * Conspiracy of The Rich

You hold in your hand the power to opt out of the conspiracy of the rich, and to make a rich life for you and your loved ones. Study the asset class and invest your time BEFORE investing your money. It is your knowledge of each asset class that makes you rich. Your greatest asset is your mind. True diversification includes investing in all four asset classes, not just different types of one asset class. I focus on only great investments in each asset class. FOCUS - Follow One Course Until Successful. Study practice, start small, and focus until you have cash flowing into your bank account consistently. Legal advice that prevents you from getting in trouble with the law is always less expensive than legal advice once you are in trouble. When you say to a child,"Go to school and get a job," you are sentencing that child to a live in the land of maximum taxes. The B and I quadrants pay the least in taxes, and sometimes pay zero taxes, even while making millions of dollars. One r...

An Old Joke

An Old Joke Two friends were talking in the woods when a bear suddenly jumped out and came at them. "Do you think we can outrun the bear?" one friend asked. To which his friend replied, "I don't have to outrun the bear. I only have to outrun you."

你在用钱还是钱在用你

金钱对人类产生影响的关键并不在于我们所拥有的金钱的量,而是金钱在我们生活中所扮演的角色。 “金钱是一个很好的仆人,却是一个很坏的主人”,无论我们拥有金钱的量是多是少,若是不懂得如何应用,支配和管理,到头来还是会沦落为金钱的奴仆,任由它来支配和管理我们,不是你在用钱,就是钱在用你!

Money for Nothing

The way you print your own money is by achieving an infinite return on your money. The definition I use for an infinite return is "money for nothing". More specifically, I print my own money when I get back all the money I used to acquire an asset, still own the asset, and enjoy the benefits of the cash flow from the asset. With a strong financial education, I can print my own money via a business, real estate, stocks, and even commodities such as gold, silver, and oil. Again, the key is going for an infinite return, or "money for nothing".

What came first, the cell phone or cash flow?

What came first, the cell phone or cash flow? (How the cash flow game is played in real life Example I) The answer, of course, is cash flow . There would never have been a cell phone without cash flow- no matter how useful one is . Cash flow is the single driving force behind innovation. Once investors realized the opportunity cell phones presented for cash flow , money was raised for the development of a global cell phone network. Without the opportunity to produce cash flow, no one would have been interested in developing the network. Every time you use your cell phone, cash flows from your wallet to the wallets of the cell phone businesses. They are in the cell phone business, but the name of the game is cash flow . Today, there are many great products, services, or businesses that could save the world, but without cash flowing from the consumer to the rich, those products or businesses are not funded. If you are going to launch a new product or start a new business, you must be ver...

The Unfair Advantage

图片
Today, most people are trying to solve the problems of taxes, debt, inflation, and retirement by working harder, getting out of debt, saving money, living below their means, and investing for the long term in the stock market. Life will become more expensive for those who insist on following this line of thinking. The Unfair Advantage Today, those who have a strong financial education have an unfair advantage over those who do not. With a sound financial education, a person can use taxes, debt, inflation and retirement to become rich rather than poor. Conversely, the forces of taxes, debt, inflation, and retirement rule those who do not have a strong financial education. Inflation is often called the "invisible tax", which is hardest on the poor, the old, savers, low-income workers, and fixed income retirees. Today, many families are entering into financial bankruptcy due to retirement and medical costs. Avoid being robbed blind by the coming increases in taxes (direct and in...

Predatory Lending - BEWARE!

Let's say a subprime couple buys a $300,000 house they cannot afford. To lure the couple in, the bank offers them a $330,000 loan, financing for 110 percent of the home's value, at a ridiculous teaser rate of 2 percent. Sometime later, the loan resets to a higher interest rate of 5 percent, and then still later at 7 percent. With each reset, the monthly mortgage payment becomes more expensive, and soon the couple defaults, the mortgage is foreclosed, and the couple loses their house. In recent cases, the house has probably fallen in value, as much as 50 percent of the mortgage amount. So, in this example, the house might now be worth only $150,000, but still have a loan of $330,000. The bank has to write down the losses of $180,000, causing havoc in the banking sector and major losses for shareholders as more and more foreclosures stack up.
