Hi, i'm just finished my study and started working. Im super noob in this financing world. so im planning to start saving money for the future. I went to maybank n cimb to know more about this. Got couple question sifus.
First, which one is better. short or long commitment vs small/large amount?. Second, Is it possible to have more than rm200k. if 200k per person is the limit, Can I have 200k from cimb then can I add 200k from maybank. Sorry if the question already answered.
Adding to what wild_card stated,
200k finacncing is the max you can take for yourself for either ASB or ASB2. Both would be 400k.
But you can have more than that in your asb account. You get more allocation with the divident earned.
Say this year 2018 u took 200k starting january. Next year jan 2019, you get the dividend say 6.5%, which is rm13,000.00.
Your max allocation is now rm213,000.00. This is permanent. You take out 13,000, its still 213,000 max for your asb account.
Also, just to share, going all out 200k+200k might be hard for a person who just joined the work force. I suggest you take it slow, set how much u want to save each month, and let that be the comitment you take for asb financing. This will make you loose the ever increasing ceiling, mind you.
Then again if you dont have any other commitments, and living with parents, with no other plans to enjoy life, go ahead.
For me, i took 50k first, then 150k, now 400k. In between i invested on riskier investments, which turned out handsomely. Analyse the opportunity costs.
