Perisher, ssb is no longer 2.78%. November bond is closed. Pls keep yourself updated.
I don't agree to put all cash in ssb. It's good to keep some liquid funds that can be instantly withdrawn in savings account. How many account you want us up to your own management ability and needs.
E.g. If one day your loved one for some reason need to post bail, you going to tell mata shushu "sorry my money in ssb can you wait for me to liquefy? Otang you first?"
For me I only hold ocbc and posb. Ocbc 360 for salary crediting, bills payment. Posb for wide network of ATM, applying IPO, ssb.
Last time when I student I also have uob/ocbc. Because my school have this super ulu uob ATM that nobody use. So I go press there loh.
Also have scb now, for trading purposes.
Your post set me thinking. What the hell. Believe it or not - 13 accounts?
I have 3 posb accounts - one for normal use, one for giro and etc and one joint with x.
I also have 5 cimb accounts - one for normal use, one joint with x, one joint with y and one joint with z, and 1 in FD.
I also have 3 ocbc accounts - one for normal use and one in trust and 1 corporate account with y.
In addition I have an esaver with scb, after closing xtrasaver!
Also got cimb in Malaysia.
Don't imagine what I have in them. Almost forgot that I still have loan account. That makes 14 accounts
