Erm by the way, please don't think that I'm stalking, targeting, aiming or whatever you call to yield or dig out your wealth worth, not should anyone forumer will do so but I'm not having any interest to find out your net worth investment. Just everyone here is sharing and giving point of view of investment portfolio just and idea sometimes to look into a particular fund just in case missed.
So u are having FSM MY and POEMS SG right as POEMS is better saver in term of dollar and cent compared to FSM SG (POEM 0.75%SC > Dollardex 0.25% platform fees > FSM SG 0.4% platform fees)?
No problem. But I rather be cautious than careless.
Yes I have both. But I am planning to migrate my FSM MY to POEMS SG. Of course it's much more cost saving. 0% service charge + 0% platform fees + 0% switching fees, what more can you ask
Note:I haven't buy anything from POEMS SG yet but I have already drafted out what to buy and my allocation for it. Reason for not buying yet:
1) FSM MY profit haven't reach my desired level. So I have't sell anything yet. Yes I am greedy.
2) No money to buy as my money is used to buy Singapore counters (need to generate some SGD). Will only use money allocated for FSM MY to buy using POEMS SG
3) Everything seems so expensive now.
4) My allocation will be based on this
http://www.turtleinvestor.net/asset-allocation/ with some slight modification which include JP small caps, no reits for me as I am holding S-reits myself.
Strategy1) Sell off FSM MY once personal target is reach one fund at a time.
2) Keep money in Maybank eGIA-i/Amanah saham (they have online system now so can park money there instead of driving to the bank) until SGD exchange is favorable. Withdraw for exchange. Unless real crisis happen then will just TT my money over.
3) Make my x annual trip to SG with max money allowed to bring and deposit in CDM.
4) I can park the money in bond fund first and switch to any of equity fund that I want to buy as switching is FOC.
5) Buy using data from FSM SG. Yes I admit their interface + data is the best compare to POEMS SG/Dollardex.
A very good argument about whether a SG UT can yield more money vs MY UT using same amount of money.

The trailer fees is an incentive that all distributors will get including the Public Mutual (aka career benefits), or banks. It comes out from the management fee charged by the fund. So one can argues that FSM SG is greedy to charge both sides. It reminds me of Airbnb actually, they also charge use of platform to both hosts and visitors and hence why they are the few disruptive players that are not losing money
You didn't answer me what is your major, but I guess you feel it's too personal to share, must be really specialised type I guess... nvm then
Auntie beancounters can find loads out here... so not exactly individually identifiable information
But yeah, young Chinese DC in Kuching should be not so many. But don't think there's much reason to kidnap him also

I support Airbnb as they make it cheaper for people to travel. Something which the hotels don't like. Well it's my money. If someone can give me a better deal than hotel I will take it. If they can even offer better deal than Airbnb so be it
Well FSM was good. I believed they are the one which cause the likes of Dollardex/POEMS to appear? If you can't keep up with competition, you will fade away even if you are the pioneer. That's how capitalist work.
As long as they have customers like Auntie, FSM SG won't die
Nah. That won't share. Nobody may want to kidnap him but people might be interested in his grandparents/siblings, future wife/kids especially if someone keep track of that person and decide to launch a kidnap once they are on vacation. One can never be too safe with so many foreigners + syndicates operating in Malaysia.
How do you think people's house get broken into? One of the reason they went and post it all online saying they are going away on holiday for x days

People post it on forums/blogs/FB/instagram.
