money lessons from a Malaysian dad @aimanarifmh

A regular dad with 7 years in finance, figuring out money for my own family. I share what I learn about budgeting, tax and saving in Malaysia, explained simply. No jargon, no hard selling.

The story

Why I started this

Once you have kids, you suddenly realise money needs a plan. But a lot of finance content out there is either full of jargon or trying to sell you something.

So I share what I learn, the way I understand it, honestly. Kalau aku salah, just tell me.

Side income

Earning in USD from Malaysia

Besides my day job, I freelance on Upwork for overseas clients and get paid in US dollars, straight into my Wise account. Here's how it's going so far, and how I can help you do the same.

Let's do some quick math

If you save a bit every month, how much does it become?

RM200
10 years
Assume a yearly return of4%

After 10 years, roughly:

RM29,450
Your own money: RM24,000 What it earned: RM5,450

Just an example, not a promise. Real returns go up and down depending on where you put your money.
