How Investors Make Money with Mutual Funds

Net Asset Value

A fund’s share price, or NAV(Net Asset Value), is the value of one share of the fund’s stocks and/or bonds. The number of securities in a fund may range from as few as 20 to as many as 100. As the value of the holdings moves up and down, the NAV and the purchase price of your fund changes accordingly. You figure the NAV by dividing the current value of the fund by the number of shares.

Mariusz Skonieczny Review on “Your Money and Your Brain” by Jason Zweig:

“I believe that investors are their own worst enemies because they are not equipped with an understanding of how to think about financial decisions. In this book, the author proves that investing generates powerful emotions that lead us to take certain actions that may not be in our best interest. He says that there is nothing in our lives that makes smart people feel as stupid as investing does. Being knowledgeable about this topic can help us make better investment decisions that will lead to more wealth. More →

This post is not related to Investing, but I just want to share to all of final fantasy fans out there. I was an avid fan of final fantasy xi online and now I am so excited to hear that Square Enix is now developing a new online game Final Fantasy xiv! I enjoyed playing final fantasy xi for 5 straight years and all I can say is that, it’s the most exciting online game i’ve  ever played. More →

I just watched the “marshmallow test” video and I had fun watching it. Sa tingin ko may koneksyon ito sa psychology at neuroscience kasi tungkol sa behavior ng tao ang target ng experiment. I think pwede sya gawin magandang example sa subject na neuroeconomics at investment. Wala kasi pinagkaiba yung mga investors sa mga bata sa video.  Self-discipline lang talaga ang kelangan.Watch these kids being tempted with marshmallows as they go through the “marshmallow test”.

Last week, I received a lot of emails na nagtatanong kung alin ang mas ok- mag-invest sa stocks at mutual funds o mag-start ng sariling business? Eto po ang aking opinyon tungkol dito. Mas ok kung makakapag start tyo ng sarili natin business. Iba pa din talaga yung may sarili tayong business at may income tayo aasahan every week or every month. Although, may mga investors na kumikita ng malaki sa stocks through day-trading. Bumibili sila ng stocks at pag tumaas ang value benta agad tapos hanap ulit ng ibang stocks tapos benta agad pag tumaas ulit ang value. Pero More →

Sa wakas at nasimulan ko na  din ang matagal ko na gusto i-try na business, ang magkaroon ng isang restaurant. Medyo busy nito mga nakaraan araw, busy sa pag-aayos ng mga gamit kaya di masyado nakapagpost dito sa blog. We started yesterday and ok naman ang comment ng mga unang customers. Simple lang at maliit lang yung pinagawa ko pero masaya ako at sobrang excited sa unang araw ng bagong business. I’m really happy kasi bunga ito ng pag-iipon at pag-invest at ngayon nakikita ko na yung produkto. Food business kasi ang unang pumasok sa isip ko na alam ko na mageenjoy ako i-manage kaya ito yung pinilit ko masimulan at masubukan. Sana nga lang marunong din ako magluto ng madaming klase ng pagkain hehehe. Pero di bale, dadating din tayo dyan.
