if not wrong last time sg stock dividend is being taxed (tax 20%? can't remember).

refer to IRAS,
Dividends paid on or after 1 Jan 2008 by a Singapore resident company are tax exempt under the one-tier corporate tax system. This means shareholders will not be taxed on such dividend income.

Tax on company side and tax on shareholders side got different?

Sgx already cmi ... the govt dun dare to tax ba... later sgx close down

i think govt wouldn't want to tax on div and capital gain either, let the investors have more monies and hope they spend even more to boost consumer spending haha something along the lines of supply-side tax reduction economics which i think this contributes to the income inequality as well (play the economic game well - work hard, save up, invest)

Look, you don't want ppl to do that to you like what I did above, so kindly limit the edmw speak here ok

Now, I assumed you are not trolling ( though I lean towards 60:40) right now, I will suggest you first:
1. Understand your risk level,
2. Understand your time horizon
3. Read and understand the various investment methods. I am not sure which works best for you so best is to understand more first before plunking money into "tips" in this forum
4. Don't blindly follow tips or ask for tips. Have observed that in a few of the threads. You might get lucky for a few of them but you won't know how to react when the prices don't go your way.

If you are hidden tiger or dragon just posting to past time, then can ignore what I just wrote

[edwardZ]

It is true. Poor bui bui like me every year need to pay a lot of tax.

if you are paying alot of taxes, it likely means you are earning way too much based on the tiered tax brackets...isn't that a happy bui bui problem?
