Recently started to bid for tbill. Tried the 1yr issuance but didn't get. Waiting to see how the 6M one turns out.

SSB is locked 10yrs? Consider mid/long term?

You all in?
What's your strategy? How would you advice someone who has limited financial knowledge on investment?

T Bill and SSB are very safe investments

u can buy with ur free fund if dun need liquidity in next 6 month

if u need liquidity, then go SSB, the turn over is 30 days

dont put in $ that will cause u to be in financial distress with < 30 days

Apart from T-bills and SSB, if you don't need your funds within 2 years, can consider GE single premium that pays 3.5% p.a. for 2 years, as part of diversification.
