Live simple so we can simply live
Well that was a saying a friend whom is a Financial Planner told me. Pause for a second it is a meaningful sweet phrase.
Live simple in financial term means to reduce monthly expenses and most importantly reduce monthly payments.
Having small monthly payment is not only manageable but it really helps shall economics downturn happens again. No more worry about job security and pay cut.
With low monthly expenses it is easy to generate passive incomes to cover for expenses need as well.
Example:
If your monthly expenses is about RM2,000
Yearly expenses: RM24,000
What you need are one of below
a.) RM 300,000 invested in Unit Trust
b.) RM 800,000 saved in FD
* assume unit trust yeild 8% return
** bank FD rate 3% pa
Option A seems quite achieveable...
