Networking Basics

Inquirer:
.paano po ba malalaman kung isang netwoking company ay rehistrado at legal?may site po ba n pwede kng puntahan?and what are the tips na pwde nyo pong ishare tungkol po sa networking? so mas maganda po ba mag invest sa isang mutual fund kesa sa networking

Guita of Colayco Foundation:
You have to check the Securities and Exchange Commission to determine whether the organization and their products are legal. If it is a food/drug product check with BFAD.
Earning from networking is only possible if you put in the effort. You will (and should) earn more from the sales of products than for bringing people in.
Networking is an active way of earning income (despite what all networkers say). Mutual fund – passive income generator.

What to do when you already have cash reserves?

Inquirer:
if we already have a savings which is equivalent to the total expenses in 6 to 8 months, is it a good idea to buy shares of stocks like that of petron as well as invest to properties like condominium, land? goal in mind is to have own business and later on have our house. thank you very much.

Guita of Colayco Foundation:
The savings of 6-8 months’ worth of income is for cash reserves – it is a big emergency fund. This is best placed in either a time deposit or a mutual fund (when the market is good).
As for investing further, yes it is a good idea. Consider mutual funds first as stocks and land require more research, knowledge and skill to effectively earn from. Make a plan – with specific and realistic goals and timetable for achieving it. Our book the Pera Palaguin Workbook can help you in this.

Joining our upcoming workshop on Aug 4 would also be very beneficial.

Mutual funds are not available in banks. What are available in banks are Unit Investment Trust Funds, an instrument similar to mutual funds.

Investments for Php5000

Inquirer:
san po pwede mkapag invest for as low as 5,000 pesos?
Guita of Colayco Foundation:
There are several investment opportunities to consider however not all of these may be the best option for you:
1. Mutual Funds – Initial investment Php5000, subsequent investments minimum Php1000. This is best utilized if you can save and invest Php1000 regularly (i.e. every month or every other month at the least).
2. Retail Treasury Bonds – In multiples of Php5000. This is best utilized if you need a safe and guaranteed investment which will give you regular income over a specified period.
3. Stocks – You can actually begin investing for as low as Php5000 however to truly take advantage of the stock market and manage your risks at the same time, you need to build the fund to at least Php150,000 over the course of 2-3 years.
It would be best to learn how to pick the best investment for you at one of Colayco Foundation’s upcoming seminars.

Before Investing Php150K in the Stock Market

Inquirer:
just want to ask if you have P150k and planning to invest it in the stock market. Am i right to spread it in 12months for example and invest slowly? Can i put the amount that i will invest in the last 6 months in time deposit first? rather than have it sit in my savings account? thank you so much

Guita of Colayco Foundation:
1. What is your financial goal?
2. When do you need to achieve your goal? Or how many years can you keep your money invested?
3. Have you invested in the stock market before or is this your first time?
These are the primary questions you need to answer before you invest in a particular instrument.
