    such a solid guide for fresh grads! Totally agree on the part about setting up an emergency fund early and starting small with investments . The mention of the 50/30/20 rule is gold-simple yet so powerful for budgeting . Also, love how you broke down the importance of investing in yourself, like gym memberships and credit scores. Small steps, big impact .
    Quick question tho-what's your take on digital banks for emergency funds compared to traditional ones? Would love your insights! 🙌

    At the moment I try to save RM 500 per month. RM 400 to low risk investment such as ASB, money market fund etc and another RM 100 for commodities such as gold to ensure diversity in my current investment portfolio. I believe the most challenging part is to build discipline and consistency for saving and investment 😅

      You're absolutely correct. No matter the amount - building discipline is by far the toughest part of the wealth building journey

    Insightful video indeed. To add:
    1. Average increment (same company) in Malaysia is around 3% -10%, you can have an idea if you are in a good company that offers that.
    2. Average increment (job hop) in Malaysia is around 15% to 25%, demanding sectors like IT, engineering or finance can definitely gave out 30% or more.

    2 cent for the folks, whether you're young or old, consistent investing is the key to success. Think of it like paying rent or a mortgage - a regular commitment. Once you make that mindset shift, you'll see the results sooner rather than later. Consistency is crucial!

    6 years, I never had any education about managing my wealth at that time, and now I'm 32 and just realise that spending everything that expensive just to impress people really makes me terrible. Now I'm happy with that. i can save $1000 per month

    Thanks for sharing, its very informative!
    Regarding the investment link insurance, I had subscribed for PB Max Advantage for about 5 years when I started working. Like you said , I do kind of regret it as the return has been subpar. Not sure if I should minimize the loss by cancelling it and invest the amount in other places, or let it continue for few more years. Kind of in a dilemma.
    By the way, I am also a Mechanical Engineer graduate. 🙌 cheers

    • @ZietInvests
      @ZietInvests  День назад +2

      I’d think save enough, then switch to investing mode, because our brain is wired to progress and survive, not stay stagnant (like seeing cash sitting there in a pile)

      Hello, while they are not "bad" financial products per se, their returns are usually much lower compared to standalone investments like ETFs, since a portion of your premiums goes towards insurance coverage and fees. Can read up on lowyat forum about them too!

      @samuelzev4076 2 дня назад

      He doesn’t necessarily like stocks because it’s too easy for people to learn to invest unlike hard assets like real estate where you have to really study the fundamentals to make a good investment but he’s not discouraging people not to invest in stocks but he wants them to have options and learn other forms of investing

    • @ZietInvests
      @ZietInvests  2 дня назад

      I don’t necessarily fancy his idea of leveraging/investing either, but there are good fundamentals that we can selectively absorb esp when it comes to assets/liabilities
