Don't feel safe money in TNG....lots of apps use TNG auto debit here and there. You might not be aware of it.

I considered this.

Some people here don't like the comparison between KDI and FD. In the end of the day, its your money and up to you on what you want to do.

For me, the money I have in KDI is long term and I don't really care much about liquidity. I could also park it in FD as well and earn more interest around 4%. But i am quite comfortable with KDI for now.

I don't see how KDI Save is long term if the interest rates are not better than FDs. I think you're talking about KDI Invest?

I have said this awhile back. It is not rich or poor issue. I park money in KDI instead of FD coz of liquidity issue. We (financial educated ppl) suppose to keep 3 months expenses (i keep more..6 to 12 months) in liquid form. Just in case you need money you can access it immediately. KDI save fits this role. ASM do as well but buying is a pain and sometimes you get some delay which is less ideal. Another one is savings which i use before kdi save appear. The issue with savings is it's only 0.1% interest? I still keep some for daily use and money that i need very very very liquid. But excess i put into kdi coz kdi save still gives me 3.5% EAR plus liquidity plus convenient. My salary goes into savings and i put aside some straight away to kdi to force myself to save. When kdi hit a certain figure then i withdraw and put somewhere higher yield but min i keep 3 months expenses in it. That's why kdi 3.5% is good. Even if FD is 5% and kdi still 3.5%, i still will not bother coz FD is locked money. It is like saying if 5 years FD is 5% and kwsp is 6% (assuming you are 30).. will you put all your money into kwsp knowing you still need at least 20 years before you can withdraw once? The answer confirm no. Even if 8% you still will think about it. You "might" put 50% money in. You will never put 100% in. Why? Coz you dunno when you need it. Kdi save is for temporary parking unused money. FD, kwsp, mutual fund, etf and other stuff requires 5 years minimum cannot touch (you can but it depends on your luck where the market is or you probably need to sell at a loss). KDI save is a temporary parking from savings to assets. If you understand this much then you will know why kdi is so good and why ppl use them. The 30k limit is plentiful. For those really really rich, they might still go for it coz of convenience and consolidation. Not everybody enjoys money being locked up for certain periods of time and not everybody likes money spread out over 10 places and then forget where some of the money is. Of coz some just know about it and nothing else. Kdi save is the simplest method out there. Some might be new. Some might be lazy. 😂 Whatever it is. 3.5% is not "that bad". The higher the better but not that bad.

I see. Means you use it as Emergency Cash storage lah. No need so long bro....TLDR. . But what you mentioned earlier gives the impression you rather have all your cash in KDI than higher yield FD for the long term which doesn't makes sense. Now that you explained, I understand,
For me Emergency means Sekarang jugak, KDI Save don't fit that criteria. I had it in another Higher yield Bank account but still lower than KDI Save of course, but priority is immediate access of cash, no question asked. KDI Save for me is only temporary storage until higher FDs are available. Never long term and definitely not for Emergency.

I am conservative, would rather wait pullback to a reasonable support level before entering again.

don't try to time the market.. it had hit rock bottom end of last year and another time this year (due to US Fed raising interest rate to combat inflation after many years of not doing so).
need some sort of catastrophic event before something like that can happen again.

After this going to be steady going up (of course with a bit of up and downs daily). KDI invest in index funds and not individual stocks hence it's safer.

If you plan to invest long term >5 years then just continue to DCA every month. smile.gif

Nope. Timing of market is needed. Going in blindly is just dumb.

Not saying you need to enter at the lowest point, but when you know pullback is happening and you go in, there is no logic.

For decade long investment, won't something with less risk is more sensible? Such as epf, kdi save, and property.

For long term investment, actually higher risk instruments is better, that is how you can get insanely rich from Bitcoins.

Personally, it depends on each person financial situation, expected returns, risk appetites, age and targets. For example if you have RM10m and about 50 years old. Putiing in EPF already have RM41k/mth. Not enough meh. What you want to eat, old already high cholesterol, eat simple only. Even inflation for next 20 years also probably won't affect you much. If you are 20 years old now and have RM10mil, probable you will want to at least bet half of them on higher growth instruments to project for the next 50 years.
