The youngest I think is the form 3 student jump from school building because of exam

Well, just imagine on form 4 you have rm800 to spend monthly 28 years ago

That's stupid
But is normal since parents now like to give their children the worst

sifus, can I know when usually EPF will declare the dividend beginning of the year like Jan or feb? and wana ask you if lets say Gov declare dividend on early Jan and update the dividend on end Jan. if i take out some portion of money after the declaration of the dividend but before they update the system...will I get the dividend base on the value i had in my epf akaun when declaration or when they update the systems?

EPF will declare dividend n credit the same in Feb
U may withdraw yo savings in Jan as dividend is calculated based on yo savings @ 31/12

+100

wonder why takes 1mth + to "calculate" the dividend?

Nowadays all computerized system. takes few days only

need to "source" the money from somewhere mahh...although dividend declared around 4-6% but overal fund size is hundreds of billions

Wat is the probability for EPF to maintain 6.75% Dividend in 2015?

0.01%?

If can give 6% already good enuf looking how bad the econ now

Tat is pathetic

My lay-person on probability ...

Assuming 4 categories:
AA definitely will happen
BB may happen
CC may not happen
DD definitely will not happen

My take is CC towards DD. Ha.

I predict 5.5%. If lucky maybe 5.75%

wah 5.5%?

I take 4.5%, anything above that considered as bonus.
Been walked through 90's financial crisis where the dividend still good. But that's because we don't have donations.

End of EPF financial year is Dec 15, right?

After a month of no crunching, they will release the 2015 dividend rate in Feb 2016.

My guessing.. wont be that high. I predict 6%!

Financial year end is 31st Dec

Sorry, fail in my communication again!

I meant Dec 2015!

What I was conveying was, with KLCI at about 1700 on 31 Dec, then performance of EPF for the year 2015 should not be that bad. Unless they want to keep some for carry forward to next year.

I wud predict around 6.50% +/- plus they c/f small portion to next year
