If banks offer 4 % and EPF average 5%for next 10 years, worth it to borrow 50k and straight put into EPF?
let me ask a simple question.
50K with 1% diff (ignore for now what the actual interest rate formula is) is 500rm per year.
If it is risk free (for the applicants), sure, just waste a few hours or a day and get it done, net net pocket 500rm.
If it is not fully risk free, I would suggest no point bothering with it just for a 500rm per year extra.
Do remember that both the loan rate and div from EPF are floating, and they may not move in the same direction.
Can one just cancel the loan say 111 days into the year? etc other issues that we all may not know.
personally, I rather spend the brain capacity on something else.... (does not apply to those who really needed the liquidity)
