How to get extra money

How to get generate money from zero in cash? Most people think & continuously try to find out on how to generate money from "empty hand". There have few strategy available & good opportunity for those have the unrealized advantages.

In Malaysia, government staffs were given special rate of charges for personal loan by financial institutions from co-operations and banks. Yes, its good if no debt, then no stress on repayment issue. But, what i'm try to share is that we can generate money even by personal loan.

Personal loan for government personnel charge as lowest as 3.99% , and if simplly put at bank for PNB share products in example also can generate up to 6.5%-7% annually such as ASN, ASW etc.  Furthermore, certain product such as ASB continuously declared dividend around 8%-8.8% annually.


Surely, there have many kind of portfolio that may generate more profit  above than 10% annual. Unit Trust is another fund type of portfolio managing by registered fund manager to manage our investment. There have various shares to choose but, its advice to keep for few years to see the profit due we have to consider on few fee of charges.

How about gold? Yes, gold is another one of most top portfolio that easy to manage & give high return with low risk. Once term of "investment" use, basically risk will be there. However, we need to consider on how the risk rate versus potential profit. Within 5 years, its give more than 100% profit by increasing of price trend (may refer www.kitco.com)

Beside that, we also can invest in properties  housing or invest in own business. It may give more that 20% annual profit, but the risk might be higher depend on experience & expertise. If experience people then, the risk might be lower compare to newbie.

Shortly, there have many kind of opportunity in front of us to let us choose to generate profit either from personal loan or by our own money. Last but not least, if prefer to apply personal loan for investment, we have to be discipline on what is our initial purpose of the loan applied then, the result will come to us.

OSH in Business

Occupational Safety & Health (OSH) is a discipline related to protect safety & health of employees at workplace. Nowadays, consciousness in OSH is improve which especially media also publish the incident happens around the world. From simple first aid incident such as scratch by knife till major & catastrophic accident such as fall from 30 meter building, major chemical spillage, fire & tank explosion.


Basically, any activity include safety programmes need amount of fund. But, safety also is considered as an investment in running plant. Why? It is because of continuous small investment in safety programme including safety awareness, personal protection equipment (PPE), and suitable facilities may prevent major loss from properties damage, compensation, penalty by enforcement body etc.

Beside that, those Company is practicing safety efficiently will help increase on client trust. Evidently shown in oil & gas field, which those Company have any relevant safety certification eg. OHSAS 18001 will get good impression & increase the trust from client or developer which will result on contract award. Why its become one of the major requirement in that Oil and Gas (O&G) field? The answer is simple, O&G industry is high cost project and any small mistakes include wrong type of bolt costing few dollars may result million dollar lost. And, it same goes to safety matter which any incident may delay the project, potentially to be fine by the government, compensation summon etc. The case of BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in Y2010 is a good example that the Company have to take care of penalty & compensation claim.

A theory of cost on safety investment versus the losses have to take by a firm in case of incident explained by Iceberg Theory. According to Iceberg Theory, we only see the figure of expenses to invest for safety programme, but the losses amount that try to protect is much bigger and it may unexpected amount.

Investment : Return vs Risk

Why people are investing their money in any portfolio are just because to get more return and profit. And most are very excited to get high return as soon as possible. However, once the term of "investment" is use then, surely risk are following closely.

Figure 1

As above diagram, its shown there have 4 coloumn on return vs risk. But, 2 common coloumn are basic that need all of us to understand are :

i. Low risk, low return
Such as keep money in saving account which generally given 2-4% dividend, which for this we are almost just do nothing.

ii. High risk, high return
Such as invest in market share, Forex trading etc. However, with good technical analysis & deeply assessment, it may become very good type of portfolio category. 

How about precious metal?
Statistic for precious metal market price such as gold may categorize as low risk with quite high return.We may refer www.kitco.com for international market price. 

Shortly, any investment has its own risk that we have to pay and give consideration in order we are only invest if we are willing to adopt the risk.
Personal loan : How it can be profitable

Basically, personal loan will be charged with some percent of interest based on total amount. Different financial organisation will have different charges amount to customer, but legal organisation have to refer national guidelines controlled by National Bank. If we are aware that interest charges is different between private sector compare to government sector's employees. Its due the repayment risk cost that they have included in ensure the financial aid given still give profit to them as business entity.

Then, the question is how the debt can give us money while in conventionally theory, we are lossing in term of interest charges need to pay as stated in agreement. Then, its a concept of "good debt" that promoted by financial practitioner. 

"Good debt" is any debt that will give return more than the cost that we need to pay. For example, a loan of $100k with interest 4% per annum is considered good debt if invest in a portfolio that will given with dividend more than 4% received. It's easy and very simple theory on how loan can make money.

Its same goes to another portfolio of investment including properties, precious metals etc.
