A movie treat from my stock broker: Captain America 2.

Great movie and in 3D too!




I got a free dinner, free tub of pop corn and a free bottle of Pepsi too!

Thumbs up!

"Value might fall but sure to come back up!"

Banker: Why put money in FD? You put money in this bond fund can make more money. About 5% per annum.

Sis: Is this 5% guaranteed?

Banker: Banks cannot say it is guaranteed one but if you look at the history, this fund is very good and have consistent returns.

Sis: But there is administration charge...

Banker: Don't worry, you will make more money, more than the admin charge.

Sis: Then, the value of the bonds might fall...

Banker: Value might fall but sure to come back up one. Don't worry.

The banker said "banks cannot say it is guaranteed" but how many verbal guarantees had she made in that short conversation?

This was my sister's recent experience. Was there any difference between this encounter and that from a year ago? Well, the only obvious difference between this encounter and that from a year ago was the bankers' genders.
