Living off investment returns while starting a business
Business, Published on 17/02/2014
» Q: I’m 40 years old and currently unemployed, but I have 6 million baht cash in savings and I plan to use around 500,000 baht of it to start my own small business. I would like advice from a financial planner on whether it’s possible to take some of these savings and allocate them to invest in something that generates return high enough to cover my monthly expenses. I want to make sure that I will be able to finance my daily cost of living from the returns on investment during the period when my small business is just starting and income from sales is not yet certain. Which institution should I seek advice from? Thank you.
