how many year you take that loan?

I think the longer, the better? I took 25years tenure...just make sure it wont be a burden later.coz we cant terminate the loan within a year...

I'm in the same shoe as you but I only go back when there's a public holiday. Sometime, I car pool while other time, I'll skip the highway and use trunk roads for certain stretches.

owh...but the disadvantages taking ASB loan, we cannot have the money or cash in hand before the loan is finish..have to wait untill 25 year...is it right?

yes..u only get from the dividend at the year end...thats why I take the loan half the amount I can afford and just bank in the other half. As an example...u can now allocate 1k for ASB per month...so maybe RM 500 to pay ASB loan...another RM500 just put it in ASB like u r doing now...in case of u need money, just cash them out. But the proportion really up to you..50-50, 70-80..etc.


or u can also use fahrur_07 method...use the dividen to pay the loan after the 1st year...but then you wont get any benefit from compound interest...
