What’s a good investment program? Where should I invest?

You probably are one of the many who keep on asking the same questions. Dr. Noet Ravalo, former Chief Economist of the Bankers Association of the Philippines, says: “It depends.” That is, it all depends on what you have and what you need.

It’s a trite response but he says that really is the answer. How and where you invest is determined by:

how much you are investing;

how big a loss you can afford to accept just in case;

how often you wish to generate returns;

how long you want to keep your investments;

how you react to uncertainties; and

how much access you have to information that you would need to monitor and manage your investments.

“Investment gurus may impress you with their so-called secret methods,” Ravalo writes in an article published in the Philippine Daily Inquirer, “but the truth is, it’s all a question of how much you have and what it is for.”

    Hi, m earning I’m 24 and earning 30k a month. I’ve been leaving for 7yrs here in Manila
    and I’ve been paying 5k5 for my rent. My friends keep telling me that I should get a condo
    or a house as an investment but I don’t know how. I’m also interested in venturing into
    business. I hope you can give some good advise or suggestions. AjA!

    Hi DrewCard. Owning a house or a condo unit needs a lot of thinking. you should assess the property if it will give you additional income since you will invest a lot of money on it. with regards to business ideas i can give you some. you can email me @ millette_angel@yahoo.com for more info.

    Hi DrewCard. Condominium or Real estate is really good investment but you need to do your homework to research if the property you will buying is a good investment indeed. Pag condo kasi meron low quality but for raw lot investment, malaki yung returns.
