Investing in UITF for some people is so difficult, but for the real opportunist investors, it isn’t. I am not promoting BDO UITF, but based on my experienced, investing in BDO UITF is so easy. I tried twice, first I invest in their UITF EIP, but when I am buying a lot (real estate), I redeem the investment. I think I gain for almost 15% in 6 months. And then I invest another UITF, this time I will never touch this because I will use the funds as passive income when it reach millions. P2,500 per month (regular investing in 15 years). God bless my plan. Try it, nothing will defeat experience.
