    HeyAnna administrators What did you do with your first S$10,000?

    Budget

      It might not be too long ago for some but earning and saving your first S$10k is a milestone we should all remember! More importantly...

      Do you remember how you managed that? Invest? Splurged on a holiday? Kick-started a small business? 🤔

          Splurged on a month long trip in Europe and left the rest in my old-school savings account - wish I started investments early.

                  I save it, then slowly put in Fixed Deposit, then started my RSP. That first 10K is still very intact and earning compounding interest which gives me dividends. 🙂
