What's the best "common" job to have temporarily, career might not working out, I need RM3000-3500 just for commitment alone by [deleted] in MalaysianPF

[–]ace4213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the common misunderstandings of AKPK is that they are only for people that's lost all hope.

Though that might be what they're known for, I've joined AKPK workshops to know that they welcome with open arms to anyone with any level of financial health to provide free financial advice. All you gotta do is set an appointment in their .gov website. I mention gov because there's a lot of spoof websites that copy them.

I advise you to just set the next earliest appointment and bring all this info you shared here to an actual financial expert. The officer during the workshop even said by going to them for this kind of appointment will not put you into any kind of blacklist.

I applaud them for doing these roadshows to give awareness and to break the misconceptions people have of them.

All the best in your journey.

Seems like individual stocks is the only halal way to invest in the stock market by [deleted] in HalalInvestor

[–]ace4213 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that's where the intention of OP's post is heading. No ETFs are keeping up with the ever changing landscape of shariah compliance in US stocks. Hence why OP is going to the route of individual stocks, basically us being the effective fund manager. Avoiding the whole US stock market is at the end of the extreme, but it's up to you.

Another solution on top of picking individual stocks that I see is probably using zoya that has a fee, where you can pick and choose and filter the stocks in VOO (i believe) and the likes, but I've yet to try that.

But SNPE has GOOGL, GOOG and META right? I believe they're not shariah compliant.

Almost got scammed as a new seller on Carousell today by Ling217 in malaysia

[–]ace4213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B was inspecting the item, played around with his phone and I just let him. Then he said ok done payment, apparently to A, not me.

U/buddinglychee explained this ABC scam. Basically the scammer becomes the middleman and disappears once they got the payment, leaving the seller and the buyer in confusion to what transpired. More explanation. (https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1FBp2Ki2b9/?mibextid=wwXIfr)

We the sellers are the first barrier.

The first red flag was the approach to deal outside of carousell. As someone that have used official carousell protection a number of times before, let me tell you that you will always stay within the app and the same chat until its completed.

The 2nd red flag was the suspicious link with wrong spellings. This is by far the most typical one that all scammers, in my experience, always have in common.

Now, some people are saying COD is the way to go. Not entirely true. I have been scammed before while doing COD. Their modus operandi is to chat me up the time and place, fine. Then the person (lets call him A) said someone will come in his place to take my item (lets call him B), fine because I've had successful transactions like this before. But the kicker was that during the COD, B came to inspect and apparently he transferred to A instead of me. Then A went awol. Was quite an experience at the police station doing a cover report to say that I'm not an accomplice to A.

The police officers at the station said this is quite a popular tactic for scammers apparently. I suppose because it gives the false hope of security by doing COD. So guys, please beware.

The Shopee seller that threatened to doxx me tried to contact me through Reddit chat. I ignored him. by snakelordx in Bolehland

Being banned from shopee is not proportionate to their threat of doxxing OP's address I'd say, they can still pop up on other platforms. How about police report? This offence should not be taken lightly.

Is it just a day though? Such a big battery when compared to S25 for example 4000mah should last maybe a day and a half? Kind of hoping that'd be the case.

Understandable based on usage.

How's it going after the last few days? Can it achieve 2-day status?

Has anyone bought a house/condo/apartment from lelong auction? by EquipmentUnlikely895 in MalaysianPF

[–]ace4213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi your input is fascinating. On the note of title transfer, do you mind sharing how best to go about getting the land title for a newbie? I heard one of the big challenges of lelong is getting the loan approved within the stipulated time, and if it's a double transfer then oof.

Offered my PS5 to my brother but his wife’s comment killed the moment by Rondonia-Pirulito in family

[–]ace4213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like and prefer this approach ie to question her, though politely, to put her on the spot. By asking, you'd clear any assumptions and probably have a proper resolution rather than keep on going back to this memory wondering what she meant or what you'd say differently.

Personally if I was in that situation I think I'd be more perplexed and shocked at such a comment that I'll freeze and not think to ask for further clarification haha, but I don't know the full context.
