(NewsUSA) - "You need to save money." You tell yourself this. Others tell you this too. However, according to the 2015 FDIC National Survey of Unbanked and Underbanked Households*, approximately nine million U.S. households don't use any type of bank account to save their money. Since banks tend to offer similar products and services, even those who do save often don't see a need to explore their options. Understanding the ins and outs of saving for the future is the first step to becoming a successful saver.
It's important to note that all savings accounts are not created equal. Online bank accounts often offer higher yields than traditional bank branches, with savings account interest rates and certificate of deposit (CD) interest rates that are higher than the national average annual percentage yield (APY).
Types of Malaysia Industry Licenses for Foreigners
Industry licenses are a license issued by a regulator of the industry to regulate the main business nature of the company intended to do. Foreigners who intend to set up a Malaysia Private Limited Company (Sdn Bhd) need to know the various types of Malaysia Industry Licenses to apply and qualify for their business activities.
The 100% foreign owned company often not be allowed for most types of trades without local Malaysians’ participation (in terms of shareholding and directorship). It is stricter for foreigners to own industry license for local Malaysia Sdn Bhd company compare to Labuan company. Malaysia Sdn Bhd company is mainly targeting local Malaysia market.
Hence, the Malaysia government would need to protect the interest of locals policies in place permit only “unique business” or manufacturing business with higher paid-up capital of minimum RM1 million to RM 2.5 million allowed for 100% foreign participation. There is an exception to certain industries for lower paid-up capital such as information technology, biotech and medical permissible for 100% foreign ownership.
Besides the Industry License, the foreigners will require to apply for other types of Malaysia’s local town council business licenses. The industry and town council licenses requirement and application procedure also applies to 100% local Malaysians owned companies.

Accumulating savings can be difficult at any age. Here are some small steps that can make a big difference in the long run:
Make a budget: If you don't know what you're spending each month, start paying attention. Track your spending for a few months and make a budget to live by. Track the money you save by eliminating unnecessary spending and put it right into your online savings account.
Split-deposit paychecks: Consider having your employer split-deposit your paycheck to your checking account and a separate high-yield savings account. This way, saving becomes automatic and because your savings account is separate, you might be less tempted to spend it.
Manage to spend: For instance, you could save money by bringing your lunch. If, for example, you average $8 a day for lunch at work, that's $40 per week and $2,000 per year. It adds up. If you were to bring your lunch from home for about $2 per day, you could achieve a savings of $1,500 per year to add to your savings account. Homemade sandwiches taste pretty good when you're watching your savings grow.
Sock your money away: Once you accumulate significant savings, you may want to move some of your savings to an FDIC-insured fixed-rate CD account to lock in an interest rate. A CD is a type of savings tool that offers a higher rate than most standard savings accounts. Generally, there is little risk and most typically don't have monthly fees.
Keep your savings safe and secure: Consider keeping all or a portion of your core savings in an FDIC-insured bank. This can mean keeping your money in savings or CD accounts that are insured by the FDIC up to the maximum allowed by law. According to the FDIC**, since the FDIC was established in 1933, no depositor has lost a penny of FDIC-insured funds.
