I'm 27 ANB, i have already bought enough insurance coverage. i currently have $25k to use. im planning on getting a more risk adverse instrument for my portfolio.?

Planning for long term endowment such as Great Eastern Wealth Mulitplier, Manulife Ready Builder, NTUC Gro gen saver, Aviva MyLifeSavings, AIA Smart Wealth Builder.

Im looking to withdraw/surrender at approximately age 60 for my retirement.

If you have better suggestions please do feel free comment below!

The longer your investment horizon, the less the risk of long term stock investing when compared to other asset classes.

the things I mention in this piece are risky, but much more risky are the things I advice against in the same piece.

possibly, so, the best stock investing instrument could be a simple large and cheap MSCI World ETF denominated in USD currency and ultra long buy & hold.

All your mentioned euphemistically named 'Builders' and 'Multipliers' surely will decrease your capital gains when compared with simple patient ultra-longterm passive diversified ETF stock investing.

Make sure that your mentioned ones will not become 'Demolitors' or "Dividers' (when benchmarked against said ETFs)​​​

Hi there,

Most of the selection you have pointed out are perpetual endowment policies, with policy expiry date around your age 100. All also offer partial withdrawals at your retirement age. A good note for these policies, is to check against the Insurer's participating fund performance. The projections only make sense if the company can achieve a high return over a long period of time.

If near term liquidity is important to you, you can opt for short-term corporate bonds. They will give you good yields at a short time frame. That way you have a long-term plan which gives you liquidity only at the later stage, while you still balance out your short term needs with liquid bonds.

Hope i was able to shed some insight on your situation. Should you require some assistance, do reach me to schedule a consult. Have a good night!
