Deposit War Started by POSB 2.05% p.a.


Wow! POSB did not advertise the latest promotion of 1.88% pa, only quietly email to customers on Saturday (Jan 24) afternoon. Is it already too late to get the $88 Hongbao for participating in this promo, only first 10,000 qualified customers get it.  Hmmm... would all these have gone to themselves already on Jan 23, start of promo?

Even if u are not the first 10k qualified customers, you can still guarantee yourself more than $88 Hongbao if u join this promo with at least $64k of deposit. You only need to deposit the fresh funds by Feb 28 2015 but POSB pays you interest from Feb 1 2015 to Jan 31 2016 (12mths), ie you get one month of free interest/money for Feb 2015 ($64k*1.88%/365*27 days=$89), that's your Hongbao! The more you deposit, the bigger your Hongbao! As you get 12mths of interest for just locking in your money for 11mths, the effective interest rate is 2.05%!   Wow!

Wow! I'll be earning 3.23% p.a. Interest in Feb 2015 for keeping my money in my current bank account which pays 1.35% p.a. (now, might be higher in Feb 2015) while POSB pays me 1.88% p.a. for Feb 2015 if I register and deposit money into POSB on Feb 28 2015. Hahaha.

But I will not be putting all my money into this POSB basket come Feb 28 2015. The Deposit War just started, so I'm expecting other banks to be in the battle soon. OCBC also started by offering customers 2.35% pa for one month in their Bonus+ Savings Account promo, the effective interest rate is only 1.18% pa per quarter. So I'm moving most of my funds into this Bonus+ Savings Account in March 2015 to earn 2.35%pa for March 2015.

OCBC 360 account pays up to 3.05% pa for max 50k savings, without salary I only get 2.05%pa on a monthly basis.

Now I'm hoping SCB will increase the Esaver Interest Rate next month when the current promo ends on Jan 31 2015!

Are you joining this Deposit War Game to maximise your returns?

CPF@55 Policy Designed to Make the Rich Richer!

CPF@55  Policy Designed to Make the Rich Richer! Do you know that  CPF@55  policy can help you get richer with a bigger SA (Special Account Balance) after 55? Yes, provided your are rich with a big OA (Ordinary Account Balance) and SA which exceeds the FRS (Full Retirement Sum).  Assuming you have $240k (SA), $160k (OA) and FRS is $200k, this is how you can become richer after 55: 1.  2 weeks before your 55th birthday, buy a stable Unit Trust Bond Fund with $200k SA under CPFIS/SA investment scheme (minimum $40k SA must be maintained) 2.  On your 55th birthday, CPFB will transfer $40k (SA) and $160k (OA) to your RA (Retirement Account) to form $200k FRS. 3.  Next day, sell your CPFIS/SA investment of $200k, this will be returned to your SA. 4.  You now have $200k (SA) and $0 (OA) after RA is created! What happens on your 55th birthday if you did not do the hack (ie. step 1&3) above?  CPFB will transfer $200k (SA) to RA.  So after 55, you will have $40k (SA) a

Fengshui Forecast was Spot On Again!

Fengshui Forecast for August 2008 Stock Market was spot on again! STI had a major correction of more than 10%, dropping from 2906 on August 1 to 2574 on September 5. Too bad, I was not ready to short sell this bear market. But I felt very happy that I've exited the market before this crash. Thanks for the Fengshui Forecast! I prefer to simply wait on the sidelines, with my cash holdings earning interest from the bank or money market funds. This is a bear market! Capital Preservation is Key! Cash is King! Survival first, make money afterwards! Patience will be rewarded when the Time is Right! "Mr Market has never failed to recover from every setback. But not so for individual stocks!”

Stock Trader's Almanac 2009

After I started working, I was always at MPH or Times Bookshops on weekends, reading books to upgrade myself. With internet, I no longer do that except when I cannot find the information I want. Recently, I started visiting the bookshops again. I went to Kinokuniya this time as it has a wider range of books and uncontrolled (ie not shrink wrapped). I found the Stock Trader's Almanac 2008 and read it. I was disappointed as I thought I can find things mentioned in Amfraser's STI Forecast or useful information for the rest of 2008. A very expensive book costing S$70+, but I read it free! Ha ha, times are bad, many people do that at the bookshops! When the Stock Trader's Almanac 2009 is out, you can see me at Kinokuniya again!
