hi sifu,

i hv income for rm2.4k and having saving for 500 every month.

feels like the 500 wont generate any interest in return if i save it and plan to have some investment(public mutual fund) instead of putting the money in bank.

Is that a good move for my current condition? need a piece of precious advice from sifu here...

If you have enough emergency savings, why not just invest it? I also started my investment with few hundreds. It's now don't know how many times compare when I first started, maybe few hundred times more (but then again, I always set aside some money to top up on the investment)

Rule of thumb: Emergency funds should be expenses for 6 months.  I keep 8 months just to be safe.  2 months in current account, 6 in savings and money market funds.
