2021-09-14 10:15:06 So we’ve been thinking of a “Do XX under 7 minutes” challenge too…


…jk. We’re not that creative (just FOMO ). But guess what? You don’t have to run a mile and pass out on a running track to win our challenge (we promise).

*drum roll*

Today’s challenge
Complete Your Investment Profile and get a S$10 eCapitaVoucher

Complete your Investment Profile in NAV Planner (instructions in GIF above!)

Screenshot your completed Profile with all 5 green ticks and share it here: Do join our wider The Burrow to comment!


See. Not so tough after all, right? But what’s gonna be tougher is your bank account (cringe alert, we know ).
And no.. it’s not the eCapitaVoucher, but from starting your investment journey.

Not a pro? Tailored investment recommendations are here to help you along the way.

Open to new profile completions only. Closes on 17 Sep @ 5pm or whenever the first 50 successfully completed the challenge. Your call.

2021-09-07 11:00:07 We’ve all heard the spiel – stocks vastly outperform bonds for investment returns over the long term. But…how does one actually get started?

Before you go on a quest to make your first pot of gold through the stock market, here are important considerations to think about before getting started:

Brokerages are one of many options to invest - take your time to familiarise yourself with the various tools available.
You’ll need 2 accounts to start investing in the Singapore securities market (tap on the images to find out more!)
Understand your risk appetite, investment goals and work out your cash flow before investing (NAV Planner can help. Just log into ibanking and tap “Plan” to find it!)

2021-09-03 10:00:07 Did it hurt? When you rake up a bunch of “Buy Now Pay Later”purchases and then…


Everyone’s shopping online. And guess what? E-commerce retailers are paying attention Over the last year, you’ve probably noticed a Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) option on the checkout pages of your fave merchants as you debate whether or not to cart out

You’re getting paid soon, it’s just a smol purchase…what could go wrong, right?

No interest charges and fees during instalment periods
18yo and above. No credit card required
Useful in managing cash flow, esp if you have irregular income

Late fees can pile up
Delaying payments = debt
May cause impulsive buying

2021-09-01 11:00:41 What have I accomplished in 2021?


So. You woke up this morning, realised it’s 1 September, and that you haven’t done anything remotely productive this year.

Tbh. All you need is 5 mins to check off one “intelligent thing I’ll do today”: set your next goal

Log into your ibanking app
Tap “Plan”, then “Map Your Money” on the top navigation bar
Tap “Add Goal” and ask yourself this simple question:

What do you want to do?

We know, we know. That’s the easy part. But don’t worry, NAV Planner will tell you exactly how to get there. #justsayin Open / Comment

2021-08-30 11:00:15 Feeling a little meh today? Don’t let the weather rain on your parade


Go slow, take some time to recalibrate and plan how you’re gonna tackle the week ahead — whether it’s school, work, or just living. Don’t forget #smallstepbigwin

Being crazily busy doesn’t always equate a sense of purpose. Always look at the bigger picture.

Offload the 101 things crowding your mind by penning them down. Use the Eisenhower Decision Matrix to learn how to prioritise.

Overwhelmed by your relationship with money? It’s ok. Just being here and facing everyday $$$ questions shows your commitment to a lifelong journey of getting better at personal finance.
