QUOTE(netmask8 @ Jan 25 2013, 10:37 AM) Currency Exchg Rate is playing an important tool .. SGD 1 Dollar = MYR 2.5 in S'pore REIT Dividend Payout Qtrly ? While In Bursa Msia REIT = Buy in MYR , Sell in MYR , Dividend in MYR .. Ratio 1:1 If u want better yield + ROI, S'pore REIT Dividend(with higher currency exchg rate) will be much better than Msia REIT Dividend. All the best. But surely there is no difference in the end, because you buy in SGD too. It's not like you buy in MYR and receive SGD.

U sell MYR, buy SGD U use SGD to buy SG REIT SGD appreciate against MYR Years later when u sell, u gain not only capital gain (if any) and dividends, u might have gains in forex movement too

Qtr payments mean that the actual ANNUALISED yield is even higher than the AV yeild because you get your payments EArLIER.......

QUOTE(500Kmission @ Feb 12 2013, 08:08 PM) what is your strategy to accumulate this amount? Save like mad, no holiday vacations overseas, no car. Invest in dividend stocks (more than 6% yield). Then re-invest the dividends. Keep doing this for 4 years. My portfolio is made up of mainly telcos and REITs. This post has been edited by Dividend Warrior: Feb 13 2013, 09:20 AM

Even with Malaysian benchmark interest rates a lot higher than Singapore's, Malaysian blue chips are now yielding no more than 5%

I beg to differ, if u earn SGD and spend SGD, u can save more relative to KL folks. Mixed rice at SG = $3 Mixed rice at KL = RM4-5 Ori CD at SG = S20+ Ori CD at KL = RM40 Uniqlo T-shirt at SG = less than $20 Uniqlo T-shirt at KL = RM50
