Sekiranya ada banyak wang kertas....tukarlah ke emas.Emas kalis inflasi dan akan melindungi kekayaan anda.
Sekiranya kekurangan wang kertas....juallah emas anda. Tak rugi kerana harganya pasti lebih tinggi berbanding waktu anda membelinya 2 atau 3 tahun dahulu.

Pengalaman 'over laping' arRahnu

Assalamualaikum. Pada 22/10/2010 saya dan isteri saya telah mencagarkan 200g gold bar. Kami telah mendapat pinjaman sebanyak 60 % iaitu berjumlah RM 19,092.00. Harga di arRahnu adalah RM 159.10/g.

Wang tunai tersebut kami telah membeli lagi gold bar 50g x 2 dan 20g x 2 ( 140g ). Kemudian kami cagarkan lagi gold bar tersebut dan mendapat wang tunai lagi. Kali ini wang tunai ini kami telah membeli / menyimpan emas dalam akaun simpanan emas di Maybank.

Pada 21/12/2010 ( 2 bulan berikutnya ), harga emas di arRahnu telah mencecah RM 165.80/g. Jadi kami terus ke bank yang berkaitan untuk membuat 'over lap' pinjaman yang terdahulu. Kami telah mendapat pinjaman sebanyak 70 % iaitu berjumlah RM 23,212.00

Jadi, RM 23,212.00 - RM 19,092.00 ( pinjaman terdahulu ) = RM 4,120.00 ( Baki tunai )

Upah simpan untuk 2 bulan adalah = RM 318.20

Maka, kami telah mendapat wang tunai sebanyak RM 3,800.00. Ini merupakan pendapat pasif yang telah menyelesaikan keperluan persekolahan anak-anak kami . Alhamdullillah.

Nota :

1. Tertakluk pada perubahan dasar arRahnu

2. Teknik ini bukanlah yang terbaik untuk pendapatan pasif. Namun, ia dapat menyelesaikan masalah

kewangan jangka pendek dan sederhana kami.
3. Bukti cagaran boleh dirujuk pada salinan surat akuan gadaian pada Lampiran A-1, A-2 dan B

Saranan Tun Mahathir

Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad menasihatkan orang ramai supaya menyimpan emas berbanding mata wang kerana nilai emas lebih terjamin dan sukar untuk jatuh.

Bekas Perdana Menteri itu berkata, nilai mata wang tidak terjamin kerana ia bergantung kepada pasaran tukaran mata wang dunia yang sentiasa berubah-ubah.

Menurutnya, ada kalanya nilai mata wang akan jatuh dengan teruk apabila berlaku sesuatu krisis kewangan di dalam sesebuah negara.

"Mata wang hanyalah sehelai kertas yang digunakan untuk mewakili nilai tertentu tetapi bukan nilai sebenar, namun emas boleh mewakili nilai sebenar kerana ia sebuah logam berharga di seluruh dunia.

"Simpanan emas lebih terjamin kerana fungsi komoditi itu sebagai penyimpan nilai kalis inflasi dan berdaya tahan terhadap ketidaktentuan ekonomi global yang sedang melanda ekonomi dunia ketika ini," katanya.

Beliau berkata demikian ketika ditemui pemberita selepas merasmikan Pelancaran Produk Emas Genneva Malaysia berkonsepkan syariah di sini, kelmarin.

Produk emas Genneva Malaysia dihasilkan dalam bentuk jongkong oleh Persatuan Persahabatan Malaysia-Arab Saudi (MSAF) dan Persatuan Usahawan Jongkong Emas Malaysia (GBEAM) yang dikeluarkan memenuhi keperluan Syariah.

MSAF dan GBEAM menyasarkan syarikat swasta dan orang ramai untuk mendapatkan produk berkenaan sebagai urusan dalam pelbagai transaksi terutamanya jualan dan belian.

Dr. Mahathir berkata, suatu ketika dahulu, satu auns emas bernilai AS$30 (RM109.79) tetapi kini satu auns emas bernilai kira-kira AS$1,400 (RM4,390.40).

Beliau berkata, perbezaan antara menyimpan emas fizikal dan emas yang siap diproses (barang kemas, syiling emas) adalah dari sudut keuntungan

Emas emas emas emas emas emas emas emas emas emas emaS

A child finds a shiny rock in a creek, thousands of years ago, and the human race

is introduced to gold for the first time.

Gold was first discovered as shining, yellow nuggets. "Gold is where you find it," so the saying goes,

and gold was first discovered in its natural state, in streams all over the world. No doubt it was the

first metal known to early hominids.

Gold became a part of every human culture. Its brilliance, natural beauty, and luster, and its

great malleability and resistance to tarnish made it enjoyable to work and play with.

Because gold is dispersed widely throughout the geologic world, its discovery occurred to many different groups in many different

locales.

And nearly everyone who found it was impressed with it, and so was the developing culture in which they lived.

Gold was the first metal widely known to our species. When thinking about the historical progress of technology,

we consider the development of iron and copper-working as the greatest contributions to our species' economic and cultural progress –

but gold came first.

Gold is the easiest of the metals to work. It occurs in a virtually pure and workable state,

whereas most other metals tend to be found in ore-bodies that pose some difficulty in smelting.

Gold's early uses were no doubt ornamental, and its brilliance and permanence (it neither corrodes

nor tarnishes) linked it to deities and royalty in early civilizations .

Gold has always been powerful stuff. The earliest history of human interaction with gold is long lost to us, but its association with

the gods, with immortality, and with wealth itself are common to many cultures throughout the world.

Early civilizations equated gold with gods and rulers, and gold was sought in their name and dedicated to their glorification.

Humans almost intuitively place a high value on gold, equating it with power, beauty, and the cultural elite.

And since gold is widely distributed all over the globe, we find this same thinking about gold throughout ancient

And modern civilizations everywhere.

Gold, beauty, and power have always gone together. Gold in ancient times was made into shrines and idols

("the Golden Calf"), plates, cups, vases and vessels of all kinds, and of course, jewelry for personal adornment.

The "Gold of Troy" treasure hoard, excavated in Turkey and dating to the era 2450 -2600 B.C., show the range of gold-work

from delicate jewelry to a gold gravy boat weighing a full troy pound. This was a time when gold was highly valued,

but had not yet become money itself. Rather, it was owned by the powerful and well-connected, or made into objects of worship,

or used to decorate sacred locations.

Gold has always had value to humans, even before it was money. This is demonstrated by the extraordinary efforts made to obtain it.

Prospecting for gold was a worldwide effort going back thousands of years, even before the first money in the form of

gold coins appeared about 700 B.C.

In the quest for gold by the Phoenicians, Egyptians, Indians, Hittites, Chinese, and others, prisoners of war were sent to

work the mines, as were slaves and criminals. And this happened during a time when gold had no value as 'money,'

but was just considered a desirable commodity in and of itself.

The 'value' of gold was accepted all over the world. Today, as in ancient times, the intrinsic appeal of gold itself has that

universal appeal to humans. But how did gold come to be a commodity, a measurable unit of value?
