quick question.
can i do this:

1. i put rm5k into fixed deposit for contract for 4 months
2. wait for 4 months to get 3% interest
3. withdraw it after 4 months, collect dividen
4. bank in again rm5k into fixed deposit, for 4 months
5. repeat all over again.

which means in 1 year, i can get 4% x3 = 12% in a year
am i correct? or i am too simple minded?

The 3% is per annum rate. You need it to divide with with 3 to get the 4 months rate which is roughly 1%.

thanks for the info smile.gif
i am not sure about the rate if its per annum or per month because some bank does not mention the unit rate.
Now i know it is per annum rate smile.gif

You are indeed SIMPLE-minded.... if you repeat it will be total 3% received after 12 months.
