How do you instantiate a new UObject?

So, do I get it right, that you cannot actually create a static instance of a class that inherits UObject?

Say I have a class USomething, which inherits UObject. Than I have a class called say, MyClass, which has a USomething attribute like so:

class MyClass{
    private:
        USomething myAtribute;
    public:
        MyClass(){}
    //other stuff...
}

So I cannot actually do this, right? It has to be:

UPROPERTY()
USomething* myAttribute;

…and allocated as:

myAttribute= NewObject<USomething>();

Or did I get it all wrong?
