why does a savings endowment plan not worth the time?

Lousy returns Vs EPF. Not to mention possible no payout if you didn't put in money as scheduled or do early withdrawal. Too much hassle of needing to read all the fine prints for lousy returns.

Some plans even worse. Ask you to pay for 5 years. Then slowly refund you the amount paid at below promo FD rates!!!

People get hooked monthly payment.

This one is 4.8% with two times payment.

Not all endowment are created the same.

Yes. Still need to read fine prints. I won't waste money on all these endowment/savings plans.

They have no place in my portfolio.

Most of the time, insurance savings endowment plan is really subpar return and / or it's super long term. In those scenario, EPF might be better.

This pru ezy saver does work differently.
1 person 1 policy.
Try to understand the T&C first before you tembak.

This particular plan pays 4.6% and for 2 years. Yes, it is lower than EPF on average. But it is 4.6% guarantee. And you can take out the money after 2 years. So this is an alternative to those chasing FD.

Thanks for the info. Still not interested when I can get 6%p.a easily.

Found out

It is not like i thought
totally out for those who think can
put money in and earn 4.6% pa x 2 years

No way!

2years maturity - wrong!
after 2nd year you CANNOT get back 100% of premium paid!
guaranteed  is only 2.4%


forget it!!

Haha... Thanks. I knew it. Too good to be true.
