Only noob follow the loan tenure, settled earlier save huge interest.

For those pro investor who make more profit than housing loan interest saving, then the loan is never an issue.

Last time i share my view to take full flexi home loan. The interest slightly higher than a static loan but i can dump money in and take out anytime, no movement restriction as long as no overdraft.

I put in all my rainy day savings into it, including my save car down payment as i was still surveying.

My kolik laugh at me, saying one can earn more with the liquid fund from the stock market. But i am glad i stuck to my plan. House was basically paid off 10 yr into 20 yr loan because all my safety net money offset the interest charged. I just let it sit there untill i have accumulated a bigger safety fund and settled it.

My work is almost stress free. All I need to do is read, analyse & execute, which is something I enjoy. I’m working from home so I have no stress of traffic jam. So, I am pretty happy to work until 60 years old. No need to take any painful options laugh.gif

The downside is only that I only be reaching /ktards minimum salary few years before I retire sweat.gif

Experience vs tokok gen.

Some prefer experienced personnel, some prefer tokok youth.

kek youngsters still thinking they have a choice in the matter.

You will not be young forever. One day you will wake up, some one calls u unker. and a random ktard will kecam old unker slowing down the world from turning.

It isn't you wanting to work after 60. It is whether anybody still wants you after 50.

Not even 50. These days after 35 also difficult. Once hit 40, gg unless in GLC civil service.

Clearly you do not understand the whole concept.
Would you ALL in your entire net worth into EPF rather than your home loan? Have you observe current BLR + bank interest? Epf beat the blr+bank interest ? You can't withdraw as you like from epf for personal needs.
