Passive Income & Investing

T-bills, CPF, fixed deposits, robo-advisors, REITs.

This is the largest account in our ledger: everything to do with making your existing cash and CPF work harder, without taking on a second job to do it. That covers Treasury Bills and Singapore Savings Bonds, comparing fixed deposit rates across the local banks, high-interest savings accounts, robo-advisors like Endowus and Syfe, buying Singapore stocks, ETFs and REITs, and the CPF mechanics that quietly run in the background of every payslip — contribution rates, interest rates, cash top-ups, and MediSave. None of it is about timing the market or chasing a hot tip; it's about understanding the mechanics of each option well enough to pick the one that actually fits your situation.
