Productive Assets and Financial Innovation
Productive assets
Another example of financial innovation is to have as many assets consumptive than productive assets. Have you seen the merchant who lived in a Shop house, where the bottom floor is used for trade, while the upper floors used as a residence?
That is, a place of business and residential into one. In other words, the merchant houses are not just houses, but has become a productive asset that can generate money, aka the place to do business. What about you? Perhaps you have the house for more than one. And you do not live in the house every month instead drain your pockets because it must pay the cost of electricity and other maintenance costs. In fact, housing conditions continued to decline due to aging and so forth. Concretely, some houses you have not only not productive, but instead become a burden. Therefore, the house must underproduction, in the sense of providing an income, such as leased to another party.
In addition to the house, try to see again those resources you have. Pay attention to whether the asset is an asset just as consumptive, or a mere tool to maintain prestige, or is quite productive. If you have gold jewelry whose value increases, the jewels belonging to the productive assets that can increase your wealth. So also with paintings whose value could be increased. In summary, productive assets are assets that have investment value.
Financial innovation can also be done by way of selection of appropriate investment. Understanding the right investment here is how to send your money “work” for you. So, money making money. How do I? Do the active investment.
Investment is active on a regular basis to select and evaluate investments that have been done. In capital markets, for example, some people buy stock, then keep holding it in a long time, with the hope of obtaining dividends and capital gains. It’s not wrong. However, in this period, could have held the stock price decline in price. Among those who hold these shares may not care or even sell it for fear that stock prices will further decline.
financial commitment after marriage
First, commitment. When you settle down, it means you’re ready to share the income for your household. If you are still using the ideology of the individual in your household, it’s no different than life itself. Will ultimately lead to financial problems. Therefore, a commitment to share a foundation in managing family finances. If during this husband and wife was already using the paradigm, income is the right of each, then change the paradigm. Not too late.
Second, determine the financial goals together. How many assets who want to have? How to prepare the child’s school fees? And so forth. Every family has the right to determine their financial goals. However, that being said the key is how to make a priority of these financial goals. Who should relent and what should take precedence.
A simple example is the need for a family vehicle. Could be, because the inequality view of the family of funds eventually run out to buy things that are not productive. The most common is about the car. It could be that the husband wanted the sedan type car. The goal, so if the office could be more stylish. However, the wife wants the type of vehicle that can carry a lot of people because each wanted to travel together his extended family. If there is no meeting point, the family then bought two cars which in fact is not productive.
This sort of thing could lead to swell the funds for the purchase of cars, and can interfere with family financial goals. Therefore, in the context of these financial goals, both parties must be willing to yield real and prioritize the assets that are productive. As for consumer assets should be based on the functions and basic needs, rather than mere desire.
