Conclusion

Finally we can conclude that a mutual fund offers a simple and efficient solution for investing for retirement, education and it also allows investors to meet their financial goals.

In a one runah ladder pattern that happens is held by a woman’s financial. And did you know that most of these women in the future to have fears that will have enough money.

Often, women think of how the old days they will, which was not as productive age will feel difficulty in financial trouble. Where most women are also thinking about how with their families, children and other dependents. The need for higher incomes but followed by continued decreases with the passage of age. Sometimes women also think that the child is also a financial risk that can arise from various fields such as education, health, etc.. Therefore, women should already start thinking of saving early for family needs, so that they can enjoy a good old age rather than vice versa. If you could be able to work, to help the husband in the family earn a living.

Although the husband is the head of the family, but according to research most women who are married often bear the responsibility is greater. This is because women have a big role in the financial head of the household. It is therefore no wonder most women also have the responsibility to regulate all matters relating to the present financial well as daily necessities and the future such as choosing an investment in the long term.

Here are 2 important things that mistakes are often made by women. At least if you know of this it is expected that women are expected to avoid it. In addition it takes for women to reflect and understand correctly about the future financial needs that are expected not to fall into the same hole.

1. Conservative Investment Avoid

Investment is essential to do so you can be free from financial problems, especially when the old days. With the investment of our money will continue to spin so it will be able to follow the development of inflation and be able to close the spending needs. But unfortunately, most people often invest in a conservative direction. If you have a lot of money so much as the savings is only distorted but not played. This pattern is not good, and will not be strong enough to cover expenses for the long term. This pattern will not be able to compensate for fluctuating inflation developments.

Here are some important points to keep in mind in order to avoid the conservative nature of investment:

1. Perform monitoring and financial analysis you every day.
2. If necessary it is advisable to make your finances become more flexible.
3. In the financial management there is no harm in asking your opinion with other family members, so that democracy is indispensable in this regard.
4. The purpose of life should be determined from the beginning, then you need to do is to adjust life goals with your finances.

2. Create and Maintain Financial Planning

Bad habits that may often owned by someone is only able to make but could not hold it and take care of her. Apparently it also applies to most of the previous financial planning has been made. Moreover, women also often think about and work on financial planning but unfortunately does not run with consistent and sometimes even forget that the opposite applies. Because very often many people, including women think that financial planning is for certain short-term in practice. Whereas financial planning can actually help finance long-term.

Financial planning, finances, and always analyze it may at first is a job that is very, very boring, but if it is done right, correct and effective, it will help people to monitor income and expenditure better. It also can help to get through a rough time in life, especially if there are problems associated with finance.

If you consider home, wherever located, is an investment, you are wrong. Although its value from year to year increase, but no real income earned.

The truth, the house is a liability or an asset consumption because it causes money out. Not an investment, or a productive asset that always bring the money in.. Do not forget that the house needed furniture, equipment, and costs such as electricity, water, security, and phone each month and the UN each year.

The money that home buyers should be able to bring in revenue. Instead of making your money ‘works’ for you, you just work for money and not use it wisely. Exactly you work for a bank and your house is not productive.

Houses can be considered an investment if you buy the house for resale with a higher price or rent it. That way, your house becomes productive and generate cash flow for you.

Before Marriage
Unifying vision of education for children
First we must first identify with the vision of our partners. Begin the conversation by telling of childhood respectively. Usually parents desire for a child’s development will be affected on the life experiences of each.

When Married:
Establishing good money habits
Good financial habits will be a strong foundation in support of a financial plan. This can begin with a detailed income and monthly expenses. For convenience, details of expenditure made by the following categories:

* Savings / investment routine
* Installment debt
* Transportation expenses
* Help the family / social
* Expenditure children
* Expenditure workers (maids, drivers)
* Expenditure lifestyle / personal

Note that expenses will increase in the above line with your family expands. Be like an accountant (financial accountant or public accountant) in order to clear your finances

Before and during pregnancy
Defining financial goals

There are some expenditures (financial management) that require attention in preparing the presence of children, namely:
1. While Pregnant: Fund expenditures, funds control obstetrician (if you do not have adequate health protection).
2. Birth: Dana gave birth (if you do not have adequate health protection), baby equipment funds, funds control pediatrician (vaccinations, doctor fees, medicines, vitamins, etc.)
3. Early School: Fund the education of children from pre school to university.
In determining the financial goals earlier, you need to do a little research. Then we need to think about how to meet the needs of this seabrek. For the short term, under 3 years old, you can still save routine from the rest of the income per month and the annual income. You can also take advantage of financial consulting services if their own difficulties.

When a child is born
Start learning about investing and protection
Most people are afraid to invest because of one problem: do not understand. That is, it can be changed by: learning. Most people either buy the product because it carried the emotion.

Investment easiest thing to do is invest time investors in Mutual Funds. This investment is necessary to fight inflation, which erodes the value of our money at the time of saving.

What we need to understand when you start investing? There are three words are important to note: Risks, Objectives and Results. Understand the true risks inherent in investment products. You need to fully understand the tolerance for what you have when buying investment products according to financial objectives. Once again, you can take advantage of consulting services if you do not understand it.

School
Family’s financial stability
In preparing the family finances since before marriage, it should be in the child enters school level, we already have a pattern of financial (financial management) are regular. We also should already know of investment commitment required by the family.

Finally, I conclude that I have a lot at home. Case additional income, should be done (mostly) from home. And I also have a good look for other income, without having to work. The term term passive income …

Passive income mothers-style home to me is to invest. By investing, the money we will continue to grow. Why is it, the term ‘investment’? because if I use the term ’savings’, then the assumption is to use financial instruments banks.
I tried to record multiple-style investment instruments mothers, plus the pros and cons:

1. Land. Obvious advantage is the price of land will rise and hold in the long run. And while we’re careful when buying, of course there will be no risk would be taken by other parties. The drawback: difficult to get liquid funds. If we need money, not necessarily a buyer in a short time. Especially if there are natural disasters Lapindo mud model. Wow, who would like the soil?

2. House / apartment. Houses here are second homes means other than the house we occupy. Its function is as a rented house. Of course if there is a tenant, each month / year we will earn cash as a passive income. It could also be that we’ll need much, it sold just stay …
The downside is clear: if the tenant naughty, we are the losers. There was a colleague of mine, had a rented house. It turned out tenants escaped by leaving arrears of electricity and telephone are worth millions. Instead of a profit instead of the owner finally had to lose.
If you have more than one house, do not leave empty for a long time. Not afraid to be a haunted house, but usually empty house would be more easily damaged than the uninhabited house. So, instead of bringing money, even draining money. Better to rent it … with a record of all the risks that might arise had we anticipated.

3. Commercial / shophouse. Nice to have this kind of investment model. If we are keen to see the location, of course we will always find a tenant. The risk, roughly equal to invest in the house / apartment.

4. Gold. Well, this must be the favorite of mothers. While invest, could force. We all know, there never was in history, gold prices could fall. Even as world crude oil prices fell, gold prices still rising. It features clear: enhance your appearance, improve the ’status’.
The drawback: difficult to keep. Missing a very big risk. Can because we are careless storage, or because of theft.

5. Securities. Can be a debenture, bonds, mutual funds … .. that this is not all mothers know. Only the well informed are understood. The surplus is clear: to become the source of our money at a higher sales price than the price when we buy. The drawback, of course we were wrong when determining the period of money will be used by the investment model, might hurt fifteen! For example, take the mutual fund investment in stocks, so that profits can be used next month. Lha, next month, the stock price has fallen dramatically, it’s over! Just info, stock mutual fund is only suitable for medium-long term.
Another drawback is that we can be fooled by agencies offering of securities of this.

Increased health costs not only happen in Indonesia, but throughout the world. Factors that increase the cost of the price of medicines, medical equipment, as well as honoraria doctors, although doctors honoraria element is merely a small part of overall health costs.

Although we have health care carefully, the disease can come unexpectedly. Traffic accidents like that of your in-laws, for example, is a frequent event in Indonesia’s family, and even some 30,000 people die every year due to traffic accidents. Thus, it is wise to familiarize yourself Indonesia families protect themselves with health insurance.

Regularly pay a premium, if fallen ill with the assistance of health insurance that does not burden the family expenses. We often see families who have debt to pay for hospital costs.

Actually, in my experience, today’s health insurance in Indonesia is quite good. Support health insurance will depend on agreement between the customer and insurance companies. The greater the premium paid more complete support for insurance.

Therefore, you need to look at the support of health insurance coverage before choosing health insurance. Does coverage include outpatient services and inpatient? Is there a particular disease that is not guaranteed insurance company?

Also to note where the service. Are you able to choose doctors or hospitals you want or are limited to hospitals that have been appointed? All should be noted, including when the guarantee came into force effectively. For example, there are certain health insurance just beginning guarantee after 30 days after the signing of the agreement.

Health insurance services is now very varied. In addition to offering financial guarantees when ill, there is combine them with certain services, such as premiums are paid in part shall be applied as a savings or investment.

This offer is certainly interesting, but usually offered insurance premiums will be greater too. In addition, those who actually join the insurance program at a young age will get some ease, for example, no medical examination required and also to remember insurance premiums will increase with increasing age of the customer. So, come in health insurance at a young age.

Although you and your family will already be a customer of health insurance, healthy lifestyle should remain obliged. It’s certainly better than the ill health though health insurance costs are covered. So, do not leave a healthy lifestyle has become a customer even though health insurance.

I understand the challenges facing young families today’s Indonesia. I feel glad to place your family’s health as an important element that needs attention.

On the whole financial advisers do not advise these entrepreneurs because these people already understand the importance of acquiring their own knowledge, skills and information about financial education. They take responsibility for their own investment decisions and do not let others (financial advisers) make decisions for them. There are some other key differences between these entrepreneurs and the wannabe’s which I think points to why investors need financial education if they want to become a true entrepreneur.

Some of these differences are:

• Wannabe’s mostly believe what they’re told. Entrepreneurs will do their own research and make their own decisions. Do your own due diligence and follow your instincts. It will rarely lead you astray.

• Wannabe’s will seek a perfect plan and wait for the perfect time. Entrepreneurs will accept educated risk and take action quickly once they have compiled all the information.

• Wannabe’s get distracted by focusing on positive thinking without taking appropriate action. Entrepreneurs understand the importance of positive thinking but also know that it only gets you so far. They will combine positive thinking with a specific plan for action.

• Wannabe’s do not share their ideas for fear of looking stupid in front of their friends or family. Entrepreneurs will openly share their ideas with like minded people. It’s important to not listen to family and friends as in most cases they have no credibility. Entrepreneurs seek out financial education.

• Wannabe’s generally believe they can do anything but have no plan or falter at the first sight of a problem. Entrepreneurs on the other hand will use all available resources to put a plan into place and find solutions to wannabe’s problems.

• Wannabe’s are focused on ‘making money’ and quite often lead lifestyles with no focus on their health. Entrepreneurs are focused on combining all elements of being wealthy, healthy and wise.

Financial education is available to everyone, particularly with the aid of the internet but also through excellent courses, publications and conferences which the true entrepreneurs seek out.

Do not forget that there are limits to save money. Pay your tax liability and your alms before saving some money as well as our practice to worship so much happier in the next life one day.

Adapt the small saving will be able to form thrift, thinking far ahead, not selfish, impatient, and so forth. Therefore if we have children then Educate our children to become a great saver.
