Dealing with Covid19 : Managing Spending efficiencyAchmad Zaky
1. The Covid-19 pandemic may last longer than initially expected, with a vaccine still 12-18 months away and production/distribution taking additional months. There is no guarantee things will return to normal even after cases slow down.
2. Startups can be built during difficult times, as was the case with Bukalapak which started with no capital, investors, industry hype or talent.
3. Spending efficiency is critical during the Covid-19 era. Improving efficiency means focusing on variable costs like marketing and sales to acquire the most profitable customers, and reducing fixed costs such as staff, buildings and technology infrastructure.

The document discusses strategies for building wealth through home equity. It presents the story of two brothers, Brother A who believes in paying off his mortgage quickly, and Brother B who takes a long-term mortgage and invests the difference. After 5, 15, and 30 years, Brother B has significantly more savings and wealth due to tax savings, equity growth, and investment returns on the money not spent on extra mortgage payments. The document advocates taking out a large mortgage and investing the equity rather than paying extra to pay off the loan early.

Personal finance and investing principles include creating a budget by listing income and expenses, setting financial goals, saving at least 10% of monthly income, and periodically reviewing expenses. Investing principles involve diversifying investments across stocks, bonds, and mutual funds for long-term growth. Investors should start early to benefit from compounding returns and plan for retirement by contributing to tax-advantaged 401(k) plans or annuities. Resources for learning include online tutorials and simulators.
Borrowers often need capital to sustain their businesses but do not always have enough of their own, so they take out loans and must pay interest on the borrowed amounts. The principal is the amount borrowed, the rate is the interest rate expressed as a percent of the principal per time period, usually per year, and the term is the length of the loan period. The basic formula for calculating interest is: Interest = Principal x Rate x Time. The perspective also differs between borrower and lender - it is an expense for the borrower but income for the lender.
Professional financial planning involves developing and implementing a plan to meet a person's financial needs. The financial planning process includes gathering information, analyzing the current position, defining goals, developing strategies to meet goals, implementing plans, and regularly reviewing and updating plans. Financial planners help clients ensure economic security by addressing threats like premature death, illness, job loss, and inadequate retirement income through tools like insurance, employer benefits, and individual investments. Financial planners are compensated through fees or commissions depending on their model.
The basic premise of Discounted Cash Flow Analysis is that the value of money is related to time. That is, a dollar in hand today is worth more than a dollar which is received one year from now. For instance, the investor could take the dollar he has today and put it in a savings account at six percent interest. One year from now he would have $1.06 in the bank. In other words, a dollar today is worth $1.06 one year from now. Expressing this another way, the 'Present Value' of a dollar one year from now is $.9434 discounted at 6%, since an investor placing $.9434 in the bank at 6% would have a dollar in the bank at the endfyf a year. (The 0.9434, or 1 divided by 1.06, is known as the 'Present Value Discount Factor'.)
Saving and investing requires planning how much to save, for what purpose, and in what type of account. The main account types are savings accounts, money market accounts, CDs, stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. Savings accounts offer the lowest returns but are FDIC insured for up to $100,000. Stocks offer higher returns but also higher risk. Retirement accounts like 401ks and IRAs allow tax-deferred growth and employer matching. Real estate can be a good long-term investment if held for at least 5-7 years in a desirable location.
This document provides an introduction to basic personal finance and investing concepts for young adults. It discusses three common ways to invest: real estate, bonds, and stocks. Real estate involves buying property, which generally increases in value over time. Bonds are loans issued by governments and companies that pay interest. Stocks represent partial ownership in companies and allow investors to participate in profits and growth. The document provides examples and explanations of key terms like inflation, interest, mortgages, and public vs private companies.
The document welcomes the reader and then discusses the time value of money concept. It states that the time value of money is the central concept in finance theory and refers to the value of money over time with interest or inflation. It notes that money today is worth more than the same amount in the future due to opportunities to earn interest and because inflation increases prices over time. The document then provides examples of how the time value of money applies to loans and compounding versus discounting value concepts.
PTPTN is a Malaysian education financing scheme that provides loans to students pursuing higher education locally. It allows students to fully or partially finance their tuition and living costs. This provides more opportunities for tertiary study. However, loan recipients must begin repaying their loans six months after graduating, with monthly payments for a set period. Failure to repay loans can result in blacklisting and being barred from leaving Malaysia. While PTPTN improves access to education, some students use the funds improperly and repayment has been an issue, with over 30% of some borrowers in default.

It’s A Trap! Don't fly into budget airline traps!Joyce Lim
Budget airlines offer very cheap base fares but charge extra fees for many items that are included in standard full-service airline tickets, like checked baggage, seat selection, in-flight meals and drinks, travel insurance, and credit card processing fees. These extra fees can accumulate and end up costing more than a full-service airline ticket once all extras are added. To avoid paying unnecessary extra fees, travelers should deselect extras like insurance they don't need, skip checking bags or seat selection if possible, bring food for short flights, and consider direct debit payment options.

Investment Club Introduction to Stocks, Bonds, and Real-EstateSamPurcell4
This document provides an introduction to basic personal finance concepts for young adults. It discusses three common ways to invest: real estate, bonds, and stocks. For real estate, it explains how housing prices tend to rise with inflation and how buying a house can be a long-term investment.

2. The payments on specialty mortgages may increase substantially, by as much as 50%, once an introductory period ends which could lead to "payment shock" if income does not increase enough.
3. Some specialty mortgages like interest-only or negative amortization loans may cause the total amount owed to increase over time rather than decrease.

The maximum annual contribution is 18% of previous year's earned income up to a yearly limit of $22,000. Unused contribution room can be carried forward. The deadline for contributions to be deducted from the previous year's taxes is March 1st. Options if out of contribution room include paying down debt, using a TFSA, or investing in tax-efficient vehicles. It is best to invest regularly in a diversified portfolio rather than try to time the market. RRSP loans are available and a TFSA may also be

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

2. • STUDENT LOANS CAN BE A TROUBLESOME BURDEN.
• ALTHOUGH THE INTEREST RATES FOR MALAYSIAN STUDENT LOANS SUCH AS PTPTN, IS
LOW(1%), THERE IS STILL AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT TO YOUR LOAN TO BE PAID.
• WHEN ADDED WITH OTHER LOANS SUCH AS HOUSING AND CAR LOAN, YOU COULD
END UP OWING A HUGE AMOUNT.
• YOU BEGIN YOUR WORKING LIFE WITH A DEBT, WHICH CAN BE QUITE DISCOURAGING.
3. SO COMING UP WITH THE QUICKEST
WAY TO PAY OFF STUDENT LOANS IS
ONLY IN YOUR BEST INTEREST.
4. DETERMINE THE DEBT
• FIRST, ANALYSE HOW MUCH YOU OWE IN TOTAL (YOU MAY HAVE MORE THAN ONE
STUDENT LOAN; FOR EXAMPLE FOR DIPLOMA AND DEGREE).
• IF YOU’RE CARRYING ONLY ONE LOAN, YOU MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER ADDING ANY
OTHER DEBT YOU HAVE TO REALLY WIPE THE SLATE CLEAN.
• ONCE YOU GET TO YOUR TOTAL DEBT AMOUNT, YOUR GOAL IS SET.
5. TERMS AND CONDITIONS
• ALL LOANS HAVE THEM THE RESPECTIVE INTEREST RATES, PENALTIES, DUE DATES, AND
LATE FEES THAT COME WITH HOLDING A DEBT.
• THESE ITEMS ALL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO INCREASE YOUR AMOUNT DUE OVER TIME.
• KNOW THE TERMS THAT COME WITH EACH OF YOUR LOANS AND BE AWARE OF THE RISKS.
YOU’LL NEED THIS INFORMATION.
6. PRIORITY PLANNING
• NOW THAT YOU KNOW YOUR T&CS, MAKE YOUR PLAN BASED BY PLACING THE LOANS THAT
HAVE THE HIGHEST INTEREST RATES AND PENALTIES AT THE TOP OF YOUR LIST.
• PAY EXTRA THAN THE MINIMUM MONTHLY PAYMENT TOWARDS THE LOANS AT THE TOP OF
THE LIST (REFER TO NEXT SLIDE)
• CONTINUE DOING THIS EVERY MONTH UNTIL THE MOST TAXING BALANCE IS PAID DOWN.
• THEN ADD THAT EXTRA MONEY TO THE NEXT ONE ON YOUR PRIORITY LIST AND SO ON.
7. SET A MINIMUM PAYMENT
• AFTER ADDING UP YOUR TOTAL DEBT,
TAKE A LOOK AT THE MINIMUM MONTHLY PAYMENTS YOU NEED TO MAKE EACH MONTH.
• THEN, DETERMINE IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO PAY MORE. FOR EXAMPLE,
• IF YOUR MINIMUM MONTHLY COMMITMENT IS $200+$100 = $300. CAN YOU AFFORD TO PAY $350?
• IF SO, THAT WOULD BE A GOOD START TOWARDS PAYING THESE LOANS DOWN QUICKER.
• IF YOU ARE STRUGGLING TO MAKE EVEN THE $350 A MONTH, YOU MAY WANT TO CONSIDER A
DEBT CONSOLIDATION PLAN (REFER TO NEXT SLIDE).
8. WHAT IS DEBT CONSOLIDATION PLAN?
• THE COMBINING OF SEVERAL UNSECURED DEBTS INTO A SINGLE, NEW LOAN THAT IS MORE
PREFERRED.
• IT INVOLVES TAKING OUT A NEW LOAN TO PAY OFF A NUMBER OF OTHER DEBTS.
• THE NEW LOAN MAY RESULT IN A LOWER INTEREST RATE, LOWER MONTHLY PAYMENT OR BOTH.
• CONSUMERS CAN USE DEBT CONSOLIDATION AS A TOOL TO MAKE IT EASIER TO GET OUT OF
STUDENT LOAN DEBT, CREDIT CARD DEBT AND OTHER TYPES OF DEBT THAT AREN’T TIED TO AN
ASSET.
9. OUR TIP
• SOMETIMES THE LOANS WITH THE HIGHEST INTEREST RATE COULD BE ONE OF A HUGE AMOUNT.
• PAYING OFF THIS LOAN MIGHT TAKE A VERY LONG TIME AND YOU MIGHT GET DEMOTIVATED IN
THE PROCESS.
• SO PRIORITIZING LOANS WHICH HAVE A SMALLER AMOUNT, CAN ALLOW YOU TO REPAY A LOAN
QUICKLY.
• THE MORALE BOOST YOU WILL GET FROM SETTLING ONE LOAN OFF COMPLETELY CAN KEEP YOU
GOING.
