Hi guys, miss my babbling here ar? I just got back 3 days ago and posted at Credit Card section but then got sick (change in weather I guess).
If you were to check out my facebook account like once a while you know where I'll be.
From what I gather, FD promos not much difference since last month, want make your life simple, just go for OCBC 13 months 3.7% but if damn freaking free and no cost to you in going to the bank at least once a month, then go for OCBC Combo 3 months.
Actually, this last few months I got no cash to go chase after FD Promos. It will be a few months before my funds reach maturity and then also wondering if I should go deposit downunder and get Online Saving Account (under my daughter's name so I don't get tax) that pays 4% or more credited monthly or maybe do go for short term FD... read below on my second option.
you guys want to deposit money up to 5 years may miss some golden opportunities...
Now now, since last two months, most SEA currencies and AUD has weaken at a rapid rate against USD and if this continue, will we see a repeat of 1997/1998? IF history repeat itself, those with cash in hand will make lots of money. And if it does happen, I guess aeiou228 and myself are looking forward to a shopping spree season
Those of you who have not bought a Rolex better go get one now before our RM depreciate further (applies to getting an imported car too before new stock arrives) instead of putting in FD because the interest you earn can never catch up with the periodic price increase
Welcome back, Captain!! We all miss you injecting new and exciting comments in this thread! If you were to check out my facebook account like once a while you know where I'll be.

So, looks like I will give up earlier idea on >1 year FD ................... For me, now I am using KFH for the 3.98% Junior FD promotion. But they also offer 3.8% for the normal FD promotion.
Ha ha, now it will be more expensive to buy Rolex, imported cars and other items ! Here goes my Rolex, have to wait for RM to appreciate at a later date
