I'm a fresh grad and just started my first full-time job. I am planning to do a $5k(from my savings) voluntary contribution to my CPF account. Is this the best way to use the 5k?

It's an unpopular opinion/decision. Any advice or 'better' ways to use that $5k?

LOVE SPELLS TO REUNITE WITH YOUR SPOUSE.

I am very surprise for the miraculous experience and wonders of Dr, Murugu that have been spreading on the Internet and worldwide, How he marvelously helped people all over the world to restore back their lost lovers I contacted him after going through so many testimonies from different people how he help to bring back ex lovers i was deeply in love with my husband and he was with me but suddenly one day he broke up with me. I tried everything but nothing seemed to workout, I thought it was going to be over forever. I never believed in spells but I was so desperate I thought I got nothing else to loose. I started searching for different spell casters and I finally found 'Great Dr, Murugu ' who helped me through the process and I eventually got my husband back and we are so happy together. I am so grateful to him. If you ever need a spell caster who can get your ex back then contact him on [email protected]

For a fresh grad with $5k saving, would suggest saving up at least 6 mth emergency fund first than to do voluntary cpf top up unless you have specific reason to do so e.g. your salary is very high (8k and above) and you would like to reduce tax.

Perhaps put the 5k into high interest bond.

If you are looking to maximise your cpf, maybe do voluntary cpf OA transfer to SA (any amount after combined 60k oa and sa), as the interest rate for sa is 4.01%. But do consider this is irreversible, i.e. consider if you have plans to buy property in future.

Congrats for your full-time role! I understand that you have a $5K saving and intending to put it into your CPF. To see if this is the best way, one thing to consider is your intention of the your money.

Also ask yourself if you have enough emergency funds?

Do you want to see your money only at age 55/65 etc?

Is there are short-term need for the $5k?

Financial planning is dynamic. Hope to hear your intention here.

Get an investing account up or a high-yield savings account for the interest....
