General Investing

Currently serving NS and I want to start investing (still in the process of learning). I just started using StashAway. Any thoughts, opinions or things I should take note of?

I have $10k in CIMB FastSaver acting as my savings/emergency funds, POSB SAYE ($500 monthly) from my NS allowance ($559) and POSB eSavings (~$3k) for daily use. I’m starting to use StashAway at 18% risk index, putting in $100 monthly. Any opinions, or things that I should know/look out for? Should I make small investment in other platform such as STI ETF and SSB using POSB? Any advice is appreciated!

Try also to self invest with cheap online broker (POEMS or FSMOne maybe, not advertising intended)

You should read much on equity investing and use passive indexing ETFs, with

ultra-longterm buy & hold strategy.

something good to read for a start here:

Hey there fellow soldiers, i started my investment journey during NS as well. investing in robo advisor is a good start. When you have free time, go and read up more on the different investments instruments available and decide on your style of investing! All the Best!

Hi, im 20 years old currently waiting for ns. I have just started investing a sum of money on Stash Away, and i would also like to learn other ways of investment for my current situation. Any advice?

I'm currently using StashAway and Syfe as my Robos/passive investment (most aggressive portfolios) and exposure to ETFs. Does it still make sense to use DBS Invest-Saver?

Hi all, currently a 20 yr old in NS. Reading about some investing and I have come across the DBS Invest saver. Any opinions about it as a start into investing?

I’ve just started working and with that I also started learning how to invest. Currently, my plan is to RSP $100 into STI ETF, Stashaway and Syfe per month. Would that be a good starting point?
