DBS
Multiplier Account Bigger at $100k @3.65%
Wow,
my FRIEND was faster than me in securing DBS Multiplier Account with
$100k @ 3.65%! FRIEND agreed to this interview writeup for sharing
with my fans.
Q1.
How FRIEND managed to “HACK” so fast?
Now
FRIEND earning 3.5% on $50k DBS Multiplier with salary+ 2 more
categories, with DBS “Hack” using POSB joint savings account.
So just need one more category to earn 3.65% on $100k. Was exploring
the suggested “SSB Ladder” vs RSP Unit Trust.
A2
“SSB Ladder” need to wait 6 mths later, then CDP dividend
received qualifies. I like “SSB Ladder” as it is just another
way of saving money with guaranteed interest, no risk if hold till
maturity. But need $500 per mth x 6 = $3000 locked in for 10 years,
unless DBS Multiplier say goodbye. Though the cost to buy SSB is low
and I will receive back capital plus interest, besides semi-annual
interest from CDP for the next 10 years, longer than DBS Multiplier
can survive?
Q3
So why choose RSP Unit Trust?
A3.
It is immediate, if RSP purchase occur before 15th of
the mth. DBS Multiplier 100k will earn 3.65% from May 2, 2019. Now
there is RSP Unit Trust promo: “Get
cashback into your PayLah! mobile wallet when you set up a Regular
Savings Plan (RSP) online from 1 April to 30 June 2019” Each
eligible Customer is entitled to a full rebate of sales charge for
all Unit Trust transactions done via Internet Banking during the
Promotional Period, capped at S$125 cashback per RSP per quarter.
FRIEND
chose a more stable Unit Trust to minimise risk of potential loss due
to price downward fluctuation. Will monitor the performance to make
sure the loss will not exceed the interest to be earned from DBS
Multiplier, haha. Can be easily terminated should it going occur.
Q4.
Why not consider Insurance?
A1.
FRIEND already bought one 3 mths ago, another 9 mths to run. Hope
DBS Multiplier interest of 3.65% pa can help “boost” the returns
from the insurance plan.
When
the insurance “expire” for DBS Multiplier bonus interest, maybe
explore Term Insurance. But dun like the idea as it is additional
cost, eating into the interest income earned from DBS Multiplier. A
cheap term insurance, eg mortgage insurance someone claim he bought
at $205 per year and qualifies for DBS Multiplier might be doable. U
earn additional $1825 (3.65% on 50k) to pay for $205, u still earn
net interest of 3.24%, why not?
Q5.
So are your planning to use the CPF SA Hack?
If
the authorities take action, it is bye bye liao! But will explore
other CPF Hacks if you share with me?
Ok,
thanks, now I know how to “hack” DBS Multiplier Account to boost
interest to 3.65% on $100k immediately starting May 2, 2019!
