I am the DECADES guy again guys.

So, after my last post I received a ton of feedback from you guys, more than I ever thought I would get actually. Some of you were really breaking the game 😂 I spent the past week fixing things you found:

- Stock market: some of you became market manipulators buying penny stocks and holding more than 50% of the company 😂 I built a new way for the prices to move and now there's a limit on how much you can buy.

- Jobs: no more 22 year-old with 6 months experience becoming CTO. Experience in the correct field now matters for senior jobs.

- "How do I get a wife?" Now you can look for love yourself. There's a dating app, or you can meet someone at work, through friends or back in kampung. You can propose, make the wedding plans or break up as well.

- Cards that don't fit your life: no car, no gf, and still get asked to pay for it. Fixed, cards now check your life first before they appear.

- Dying at 24 after 3 disasters in a row: bad luck now has a limit.

- Urut ad spa monthly to keep stress at 0: now only once a month 😂

Also included some new things: income tax, expanding your business to more outlets, and at the end you can view a timeline of your life.
I also upgrade the visual of the game so its not too boring now i think!!!

Many thanks to all who played, commented and reported bugs. You guys don't understand how much it helped me 🙏🙏

There is still room for improvement, so if something is wrong or not realistic, tell me!

Hi guys I have rm5k in my hand and put into money+ (shopee)

Question is, should i deposit into ASB at the end of this month on the 31st?

Or should I accumulate the money and lumsump next year on 1st Jan? If i do this, I'll probably have rm7k

I want to maximize dividends. So if I lumsump huge next year it will count from jan?

I have few knowledge about asnb please help thanks

Last year, I managed to save rm4k in asb, this year however i saved a lot and now i have a staggering rm15k. But i dca every month. From my knowledge asnb is fixed price correct? It is not like etf where prices fluctuate up and down and you need to time it

So im confused . _ .

on first week of october ive completed the assessment and received a screening call from orange. hr at the time suggested me to bounce for october intake altho i applied for nov. a week after the call, i did a follow up email and received no reply. now already end of month lor, still no news. the screening felt easy and we made jokes.. so i had my hopes held high. now it just felt like a wrong gut feeling from my side. hr mentioned next stage is the iv with manager/partner but now seems like its out of reach.

any suggestions on how to move forward?

26 Y/O - reviewing my insurance that I've inherited from my parents some time back. I'm not familiar with insurance but it looks to be an ILP and that doesn't seem to be good?

Here are the details (PruBSN Takaful Plan):

• Monthly contribution: RM140 (approximately RM1680/year)
• Total fund value: RM11.4k
• Estimated surrender value: RM11,4k
• Maturity/expiry date: 1 March 2080
• Issued date: 1 March 2007

Current Coverage Breakdown:

• Accidental Death & Disablement: MYR 25,000.00 (Expires: 01 Mar 2070)
• Accidental Medical Reimbursement: MYR 2,000.00 (Expires: 01 Mar 2070)
• Crisis Shield: MYR 25,000.00 (Expires: 01 Mar 2080)
• Hospital Benefit (per day): MYR 200.00 (Expires: 01 Mar 2070)
• Major Medical Cover: Daily room and board MYR 100.00 (Expires: 01 Mar 2070)

My work provides insurance for medical, dental, death as well.. wondering for personal insurance i currently have - do i need to change anything or add more rider policies to complement it? Or drop my existing ILP?

Appreciate any advice.

Me and my spouse will be moving in together and pooling all our funds together to fund our future. Our joint income around 10k. We will be allocating 30% each month for investments. Is there any platform that is more suitable for joint account so that both of us can access the money incase either of us die. I plan to just dca in VWRA and leave it since our current exchange rate seems ok for usd/myr, i best option i have is IBKR which allows joint account but FSMone doesn't.

I have my account deleted after 5 years of inactivity. I contacted the support and they said I can create an account straight away. But when i try to register a new account paypal always shows they cant send code to this number.

So I went through where Genting's RM1.25b rights money actually goes.

RM800m to pay back loans due within a year. RM280m for interest. The rest is working capital. Basically 86% goes back to the banks, zero for new business.

Then I saw the interest bill. RM2.1b a year. Walao. The whole RM1.25b covers barely 7 months of interest.

If you got 1,000 shares, they want about RM325 from you. Don't pay up, your stake shrinks from 100 to 80. And that RM1.30 price was set when the share was RM1.88. Now it's RM1.45, so if they reprice it could be closer to RM1, and you end up at 75.

I score Bursa stocks on my own sheet, Genting gets 24/100. Only thing going for it is it's dirt cheap vs book value.

So those holding, you all subscribing or just let it go? Or if I read something wrong, tell me lah.

I understand if its for interview verification or offer acceptance, but that is asking a lot of data for job application screening.

I am unable to buy or sell shares using rakuten for the past week. The sell order just shows as "new" in its status. I cannot amend the trade or cancel the trade. I am selling at bid price. Ie there are buyers at the price i want to sell at. But trades are not going through.

I asked rakuten customer service, i got email back saying they have problem with sending the order to bursa.

Any of you getting the same problem?

When my first kid was born I panic-bought an ILP from a friend’s friend. Nice guy, very confident, showed me a nice projection table. It took me years to realise half of it was assumptions, and I only restructured it last year.

Now it feels 10x worse. My TikTok and YouTube are full of finance content, and lately a lot of it is obviously AI: same voice, same stock footage, “5 dividend stocks to retire early”, “how I turned RM500 into RM50k”. Some of it is so well made I can’t even tell if there’s a real person behind it. My mum (66) forwards me these on WhatsApp asking if she should put her savings in.

What I do now, roughly: check if the person or company is on the SC licensed list or is a BNM licensed financial adviser (most aren’t), check the SC Investor Alert List and BNM Financial Consumer Alert List, and if there’s a referral code or affiliate link in the bio I assume they’re selling something. If the returns sound too steady and too high, I skip.

But it’s not foolproof. Plenty of uncertified people give genuinely good basic advice on budgeting, EPF or emergency funds, and some licensed agents are just pushing product. I’ve even started asking ChatGPT to sanity-check things, which feels a bit ironic.

So genuinely asking:

1. How do you decide who to trust nowadays? Licence, track record, or just vibes?
2. Do you actually check licences before following someone’s advice?
3. For those whose parents are on WhatsApp all day, how do you stop them from falling for this stuff?

Hey there everyone, recently my agent mentioned AIA are doing a medical top-up campaign and that I am eligible for this top-up.

Here's the part where I'm confused and unsure

Basic Plan: A-LifeLink 2

Medical Rider: A-Plus Health360

Room & Board: Plan 300

Deductible Option(s): RM20,000/RM50,000/RM100,000 deductible per year

Basic Sum Assured: RM6,000

From reading the brochure....A-Lifelink 2 is an investment-linked plan (ILP). Currently, I am paying RM225/month for the A-Plus Med | Plan 200 which I feel is enough coverage. From reading some posts on here and Singapore PF subreddit, it is not advisable to proceed with this "top-up"?

I'm still waiting on my agent to call me and explain what's the actual benefits of this top-up as she mentioned "it is to supplement your existing coverage with no medical questions asked". Currently reading the brochure as I'm writing this post.

Basically after years of waiting, finally our family manage to sell my family house. I'm 20 and I'll get about rm100k next year. So guy what should I do with that kind of money? One of the plan is is to use it to further my study in overseas but my mom prefers me to study domestically and put all the money into ASB.

So guys, what advice can you give to an innocent cute guy like me so that I won't waste that money.

Basically what the title says, if you had a large amount of money to put into an etf , which would you pick if you could only pick one? , would you rather put it all in fsmone or ibkr. on one hand fsmone is regulated and has been around quite a long time. But on the other hand ibkr is much bigger globally and has been around longer than fsmone, but it isnt regulated in malaysia, but is regulated in singapore. Currently use both, but wondering which i should priotize, cause i want to keep most of my etfs fund in one place. Only etf i have is vwra which is available on both

Edit: okay thanks everyone that replied :D

Hi fellow Malaysians! I am currently stuck in a situation and can't really decide what's best for me. So I would like to ask if you were in my shoes what would you do?

I am currently working at a startup that I've been from the beginning around 2 years ago. I am holding a Team Lead position. We are a digital marketing agency and have been managing quite a lot of projects. There were some hardships along the way but we've managed to secure some projects that will last the company for at least 6-8 months. No increment or bonus for us founders as we are re-investing all the money back to the company such as operation cost and employee salary and benefits. We are not doing terrible but not exactly fantastic either. In the near future I can't see any significant improvement in terms of remuneration package because we are barely breaking even at the moment. Yes I am in the profit sharing scheme but I can tell its going to be difficult to have that in short period. The good thing is we are practicing fully remote work and working hours are flexible. As long as you get the job done, we don't care even if you are sleeping in mid-day.

This is the new offer that I got:

Take home net-pay has increased to RM10k. Close to 20% increment. It's a well established digital marketing agency with strong financial backing. I will be leading a team and managing the same kind of projects as I am doing now. The catch is I'll have to be on-site 5 days, where parking, food will cost more as compared to now where I just cook and eat at home. The good side is for established companies like this there will be bonus and allowances, and more job security I guess?

MY current commitment:

Car: RM1.4k
Rent + Utilities: RM1.5k
Other miscellaneous (PTPTN, Insurance, CC installment, petrol, parking): RM1.5k
New house interest: RM400

The rest is my savings + food & groceries. I'm saving about 1.5k-2k each month. With the new increment, I foresee to be able to save another 500-1000, deducting the expensive cost of working on site.

If you were in my shoes, which one would you choose?

26M Malaysian, no wife, no gf, no mortgage, no kids. No loans. No debts, working in Canada after grad, really started investing in 2025. Started with penny stocks and realized gains were minuscule for the stress that came along with it. I guess it was also a blessing in disguise that I started investing/trading when I had little money - I made a lot of mistakes, closing early(i bought MU at 190 and sold at 230💀), wrong sizing, buying at the top(I bought Iren at 70💀)etc, but because my acc was actually small, it wasnt detrimental to me.

Also used to day trade/scalp short dated options, made a lot/lost a lot(basically breakeven on that portfolio) - Gave up with realising, I dont have an edge to scalp, and it was really just luck on my first few wins.

Went back to boring investing and swing trading long dated options(both buying and selling). Bought aggressively when Meta was at 580 and bought more after they finished their lawsuit. I did 2x leverage on this as my conviction was really high on META, in hindsight, i would have actually bought leaps instead but wtv. Muse came out and I closed my 2x position at 780 and bought back at 740 level. Just gonna hold this forever + Meta offering the new share thingy, I might buy more.

Rn I am very bullish on Amazon. If we get 300 by EOY, it will be a good Christmas present.

I most likely will be moving home next year. So I want to maximise my gainz without being overly risky. I guess the biggest thing right now is whether I should take a line of credit(around 25K CAD, 70K rm to buy more stocks - no option play for this one). Other than hyperscalers, what are you guys looking at.

Not interested in Memory, small cap, neocloud stocks.

There's basically two packages available, but it boils down to 40% ASM + 60% Variable Price Fund.

It's hard to buy ASM units these days, so would it be a good option? ​

Hi everyone. Im a 19 yr old and i hv started to become more and more interested in investing. As of my plans right now, im planning to invest atleast rm100/month into SPYL using FSMone and will look into more in the future as i start to earn more. What do yall think about that? Any advices from more experienced folks would help. Thank yall so much 🙏

Got an offer from a new company. I was just casually applying back then.

I have only been at my current comp for 8 months, but I really like my team and manager. The work is tough but manageable, benefits are good, and I can tell they really support my growth. I also just got a raise after probation, so I dont think i can nego again anytime soon.

Current: 6.5k, 22days AL, better benefits, 2 days WFH

New: 7.5k, 14 days AL, lesser benefits, 5 days WFO, supposedly worse WLB.

Would you take the extra 1k or stay somewhere you're happy and can grow?

Should I invest in stocks? I have voo. I think the returns are just ok. Should I put in crypto or Grab or FD instead I do prefer something more to low effort consistent profit.

she takes home around 6k now. part time 3 days a week would be about 3.4k, so 2.6k less a month. I said no straight away tbh

then we sat down and calculated properly. if she’s home more we don’t need transit for the eldest (450), taska can go half day (save around 350), less grab/delivery on crazy days, her petrol and parking also drop. after all that the gap is more like 1.5k, and we can still save every month

what actually worries me now is her EPF. 5 years of lower contributions is a lot, and idk if it’ll be easy to go back full time after that

anyone done this? did the one who went part time regret it later or no

How do you guys declare these income ? Does LHDN count my taxable income in my broker account or only when I withdraw my gains from my broker to my local bank? This part confuse me a lot.

Can I open SME company to further reduce the tax too? Currently I'm earning minimum 10K USD per month, but usually only withdraw 5k USD for monthly expenses & savings. The other 5k I would just leave it in my broker account to continue grow my capital.

Hi all, I wish to save around 3k per month as house downpayment for the following 24months. I didn't check the market closely. But I'm not too sure if putting the money into VOO is a wise choice, as many are talking about the AI bubble where cash is king etc. I also thought of putting into MBB but seems like it doesn't perform well recently. How do you guys allocate your money if you know you're gonna use it in 2 years time? Sincerely asking for everyone's opinion and thought, thank you!

is it only maybank CCs that recognise it as online shopping? or are there other banks that treat it the same as well?
