Homeowner 1 Report post Posted March 16, 2007 (edited) Yah...lots of cheap costume/ silver jewellery at home All < $360 Oops sorry...didn't think of it until you mentioned that your bank is also UOB!Yah, we have a standard chartered E-savers...but think for people like us who don't have much, better put it in Maybank e-savers 2.48% for >$5k for at least 6 mths. Think for Standard chartered and Citibank, you need >$50k to get better interest. For better returns, I prefer to invest in Reits and other dividend stock (although now the prices are really still very high, need to invest wisely).

ahnah 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2007 kena conned by you .that is a special price @ a "price of 5K FD" lahbtw just to share with you...the interest rate for E-Saver by Standard chartered is higher than FD in major bank for all you know the interests earned can use to substitute the safe deposit box charges :PCheaper Things always come with Tighter / Smaller Print of T&C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Homeowner 1 Report post Posted March 16, 2007 (edited) Maybe it depends on what you get...some enlightened in-laws buy modern pieces while some give pieces with historical/ sentimental value... Actually, my mom bought modern pieces, but I can't bear to wear...scared I lose them...Too precious...from mom! Edited March 16, 2007 by Homeowner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fifi 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2007 oh... my MIL wanted to get me diamond pieces coz she knows i like diamond better than yellow gold. but hubby likes yellow gold though...and i'm tinking the tings i get from my inlaws next time preferably pass to my future generations so it will be more worthwhile to get yellow goldthe earrings and necklace cum pendant she brought me along to choose. so i chose those which i am able to wear during my daily work. only the bracelets i din wear coz it's too..... attracting.my mum was saying y i chose such small pieces (she was there when i chose it and she made the remarks after that)but well... i'll rather get smaller ones which i will put on later on rather than those big, robbers-attracting and seldom have the chance to wear it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
