Personal Financial Statement United Bank 2011-2023

The best investment you can make is to invest in yourself.   The second best investment you can make is to reduce costs.Invest in yourselfEducation: You should be investing in your education.  That doesn't necessarily mean college or grad school -- but it does mean massive knowledge accumulation to advance your career.  Luckily, the cost of attaining knowledge has gone down dramatically. Buy time to focus more on your career.  You can invest small amounts of money to buy yourself time.  You can invest money to pay for things like grocery deliveries, laundry services, etc. to increase your time.  Sometimes you can get a whole hour for less than you make in 10 minutes -- always make that trade-off if you can afford it.  If you can put more hours in your career, you should see faster and larger raises, promotions, etc.More details at: What is the best way to maximize profit using my 20K?Cut your expensesThe second best investment for a young person to make is to cut your expenses -- especially the reoccurring expenses.  Cutting expenses is much better than corresponding income because you get taxed on income.  And if you live in a place like California or Manhattan, then you get taxed A LOT on income (top tax bracket for Fed+State+local is about 54%).  For instance: Cut expenses like your monthly cable bill -- if you call your cable or mobile phone provider, you could probably knock off $15/mo in a 30 min phone call.  That means you just made $180/year tax free.   Cancel other services you don't use.  Get a place with lower rent and just live cheaper.  Long-term: two years of savingsIf you grow your revenues enough and cut your expenses enough, you will save.  If things go well, you might achieve freedom.  My definition of financial freedom for a young person is having two years of savings in the bank.  That means you could sustain your current lifestyle for two years with no additional income.  If you can achieve two years of savings, you can take real risks.  You can quit your job to pursue a "crazy" idea.  You have freedom to build real wealth.

The only time I know that financial statements are asked for is when one applies for a business or personal loan, or applying for a mortgage. Each bank or credit union can have their own document requirements, however for each transaction. It really is at their discretion.

If that is necessary, the university or the faculty will inform you of that. These things can vary from university to university. Your best option would be to check your university website, financial services office or the Bursar office in your university.

Somewhere on that form should be a blank for routing number and account number. Those are available from your check and/or your bank statements. If you can't find them, call the bank and ask or go by their office for help with the form.  As long as those numbers are entered correctly, any error you make in spelling, location or naming should not influence the eventual deposit into your proper account.

I want to believe that most banks nowadays have made the process of opening bank account, which used to be cumbersome, less cumbersome. All you need to do is to approach the bank, collect the form, and fill. However if you have any difficulty in filling it, you can always call on one of the banks rep to help you out.

Write the name of the beneficiary in the space after “in favour of “ and the branch name where the beneficiary would encash it in the space “payable at”.Fill in the amount in words and figures and the appropriate exchange .Fill up your name and address in “Applicant's name” and sign at “ applicant's signature”

Yes you can. Should you? Perhaps, but remember that the 1099 is what the IRS is going to receive. There could be differences.You may receive a 1099 which is missing basis information. You will indicate that, and use your records to fill in the missing information.My suggestion is to use the 1099, cross-referencing to your statements.

Its not that complex… Here, i have written everything you need to know about Mutual funds. Read this, you can start investing without anyone’s help.Mutual fund is like fixed deposit where we deposit our money and it will give us return.There are three types of mutual funds, they are debt fund, equity fund & balanced fund.Debt fund is similar to Bank. When we invest our money in debt fund, fund house will use our money to give loans to private companies or Indian government or State government.Debt fund - Risk is low. Return is around 8%. If you withdraw money within 3 years, you need to pay tax based on your income tax slab (like 10% or 20% or 30%). If you withdraw after 3 years, you need to pay 20% tax with indexation.Indexation: 20% tax with indexation means you will be discounting inflation while paying tax. So you will be paying less tax after discounting inflation (less than 15%)Inflation: Inflation is most important factor when comes to finance. It means decrease in purchasing power of money. To give you an example, before 10 years Rs.10 is a big amount. But now??? In 10 years from now Rs.10 will be nothing. Thats the inflation, every year value of money will get reduced. Government regularly release inflation details.There are many types of debt funds like gilt, income, short term, liquid, ultra short term.Gilt fund - your money will be loaned to government. Risk is very low since borrower is Government.Income fund - you will receive monthly income. Suitable for retired people.Liquid fund - you can withdraw your money anytime without any charges. It is like savings account.Short term or Ultra short term - if you like to invest only for some months.Let me warn you, debt funds are not risk free. They too carry some risk. Sometimes company default loans (Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi). Then there is a risk of interest rate.If like to invest with minimal risk, then open the debt fund in valueresearchonline website. There you will find the below diagram (or chart?). Good low risk debt fund should have black box in red area. The meaning is, the fund is less sensitive to interest rate change and has good credit quality.Equity fund. As the name says, your money will get invested in Share market.Equity fund is riskier than debt fund. But it gives good return like 12% to 25%. If you withdraw withing an year you need to pay short term capital gain tax of 15%. If you withdraw after 1 year and if your return is more than 1 lakh, you need to pay capital gain tax of 10%.It is recommended to hold equity mutual funds at least 5 years to see decent return.Equity mutual funds comes in many types like large cap, mid cap, small cap, sector.Large cap or Bluechip fund - your money will get invested in big companies. Risk is low and return is around 10% - 13%.Mid cap fund - your money will get invested in medium size companies. Return is more than 13%. Medium risk.Small cap fund - your money will get invested in small companies. Very risky but good return, more than 20%.Sector fund - your money will get invested in companies in specific sector. For example, Equity Infra fund means, your money will get invested in Infrastructure companies. Return varies based on sector, but it will be more than 15%.Index fund - Return is around 10%. Medium risk.What is index fund? There are many indices in India like Nifty, Sensex, Bank nifty, etc., Each index comprise of many companies with different weightage. For example, Nifty comprise of top 50 companies in NSE. If you invest your money in Nifty index fund, it is like investing in top 50 companies in NSE.ELSS - It is tax saving mutual fund. You can save tax under Section 80C. It is getting popular now. Lock in period is 3 years. Return is around 12%.Arbitrage fund - It is very very low risk equity fund. Arbitrage fund won’t get affected by markets up and down. Return is 8%. Taxing is same as equity mutual funds.Balanced or Hybrid fund. It is mix of Equity and Debt fund. (65% equity and 35% debt). Low risk. Return around 12%. Taxation is similar to equity fund.First, choose fund type based on your risk potential (like debt or equity or balanced).If you are retired person or if you don’t want to take any risks then choose Debt funds.If you like to take only small amount of risk, choose balanced fund.If you earn average income, then choose balanced fund or large cap or both.If you fall under huge income category, then mix large cap, mid cap and small cap.To choose fund, visit Funds - Value Research Online. Here are the list of things to note while choosing fund…See the fund’s performance from inception. See yearly, 3 year, 5 year and overall return.See the expense ratio. Expense ratio is the amount you are going to pay as commission. Less than 1% is better.See exit load. This is amount you need to pay when you withdraw.Value research online gives star rating for all funds. Choose funds with atleast 4 Stars.IMPORTANT NOTE: All funds comes in two plans Regular & Direct plan. Regular means you invest via Broker or Agent. Direct means you invest directly. Broker or Agents charge commission. Their commission will be around 1% per year. IT IS LOT OF MONEY. So never go with Broker or Agents.If you are new to mutual fund, you need to register KYC first. It is one time process and it is centralized. Once you get registered, you can invest in any mutual funds just by giving your PAN number. To register KYC, first select fund house (example, SBI Mutual fund or HDFC mutual fund). Find their office in your city and go and register KYC. You can also register e-KYC online, but it has some limitations. So i suggest you to visit office and do it in person.Once KYC is done, you can invest in any mutual funds. If you do KYC in SBI mutual fund, you can also invest in HDFC or ICICI mutual funds. KYC is centralized.Once KYC is done, visit mutual fund company website (like SBI mutual fund site or LT mutual fund site). Register there. Start investing. You can either invest as Lump sum. Or as SIP. SIP means you can invest small amount monthly. Money will be automatically deducted from your account.FAQ:When should i invest?If you are planning to invest via SIP you can start anytime. But if you are planning to invest as Lumpsum, there is a completely different approach. If you like to invest lumpsum in debt fund. You can invest anytime, no issues.But if you like to invest lumpsum in equity mutual fund, you need to follow different approach, since investing lumpsum in equity mutual fund is very risky. First invest your lump amount in liquid fund or ultra short term debt fund [Lets call Fund A]. These funds don’t have exit load (or withdrawing fee), so there is no charges when money gets transferred. Now, set up STP (Systematic Transfer Plan) to transfer a fixed amount monthly to an equity fund [Fund B]. For example, if you have 1 lakh lump amount, set a monthly amount to Rs.5,000. Every month, Rs.5,000 from Fund A will get transferred to Fund B. Fully automatic.Note: Never invest lump amount directly in equity mutual funds.Is there any service which helps me to invest in Mutual funds easily?There are so many apps these days which help you to invest money in mutual funds via direct plan. Like, Zerodha Coins [Not a promotion, you can try any app you want]. These apps are not free, they charge small amount monthly. You can easily set up investments from the app and also you can track the fund performance. I personally find such apps useful.I heard mutual fund is risky.Every investment is risky, whether it is real estate, gold or FD.Gold. What if someone stole or you lose is somewhere? Think how many times you heard from your friends or relatives (or happened to you) that they lost Jewels?FD. FD return is very low. If you are a tax payer and if you invest in FD, then you are LOSING MONEY because of tax and inflation. You will be losing 1% or more per year if you invest in FD. And also, what happens if bank goes bankrupt? FD is insured for Rs.1 lakh. If you have 10 lakhs in FD and bank goes bankrupt, you receive Rs.1 lakh.Real estate. Many factors affect real estate like current government, policies, economy, water issue, etc., And there is liquidity problem . You can’t buy or sell real estate fast.Like these mutual funds also carry risk. If you plan properly you can reduce the risk by investing GILT fund or Arbitrage fund. Remember, mutual fund house invest your money in companies like ICICI bank, TCS, ITC, Tata motors, etc., It is very unlikely that these companies shut down their business.Is it true that debt fund carry Zero Risk?No. As i said earlier Risk is everywhere. When compared with equity, debt fund carry low risk. Still there is some risk. Companies default their loan (remember Kingfisher?). Companies goes bankrupt.What funds are you investing?I am investing in…Aditya Birla SL Balanced '95 Direct-G (Balanced fund)IDFC Focused Equity Direct-G (Large and mid cap)L&T Emerging Businesses Direct-G (Small cap)What should i choose? Growth or Dividend or Dividend reinvestment?Growth - To unleash the power of compound interest choose Growth. It will give you massive return in long term.
