_________________________________________________
I finally found the best method to invest in S&P500 funded using SRS
Mentioned in my previous video, you could invest through Endowus buying the LionGlobal Infinity US 500 fund ($20 access fee)
But here lies the problem, the access fee of 0.3% is recurring every year and will charge higher with your portfolio increasing over time.
I also talked about buying ticker S27 (S&P500 ETF) listed in. SGX but the downside is there is a minimum lot of 10 shares per order at that time
But what has changed is that SGX has lowered the lot size of ETF effective Jan 2022, and this means that you could start buying 1 unit of S27 ($450 USD) per order.
- Problem: Min commission of $25 per order if using traditional brokers like DBS Vickers
- Not effective for Dollar Cost Average (DCA)
#NOTSPONSORED
- Commission rate: 25/600 = 4% trading expense per order
- Still have to buy more shares to reduce the trading expense ratio
Solve the problem: POEMS Cash plus account
- 0.08%, No min commission for Singapore stocks/ETF
- No account maintenance or custodian fee if you make 1 trade per quarter
- 1% Dividend handling fee (min S$1.07), 4 dividends annually for S27
- Actual e-statement, total fee around 0.19% net, less than $1 USD
- Link SRS account
- Need to Deposit Cash as collateral to enable trading
POEMS Cash plus referral
- 1 month free US trades
- Deposit $3000 within 7 days of account opening
- Maintain $3000 for one month to be eligible
www.poems.com....
My SRS Investing plan
- Buy 1 unit of S27 every two weeks for DCA
- Around S$600 per order, S$1200 per month, fits nicely with the S$1275 monthly contribution to SRS

Hi Chris, have also invested into S&P500 using Endowus. For S27, one of the key concern is the extremely low trading volume. Also noted the poems commission promo is only till end of year and might end up with our investments spread across multiple funds/ brokers over the long run. However agree is still one time vs. yearly access fees. Putting aside costs, 1 plus point for Endowus is we can use CPF so having it all managed together may be easier.

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Yes, your concerns are valid

[@HoneyMoneySG]

This is the current POEMS Cash+ Referral promotion (time-based) www.poems.com.sg/marketing-partnership/? Get 1 month of “Free US Trades” when you successfully open a Cash Plus Account and deposit at least S$3,000 with PSPL in your Cash Plus Account within 7 calendar days from Account opening date. *Free US Trades refers to the offset of brokerage incurred for trades executed for US listed shares, excluding miscellaneous charges, exchanges fees and GST.

[@arigutman]

Great video, one cannot go wrong with investing into a large fund - fail safe strategy and highly recommended for the passive investing and/or a foundation to an investment portfolio!

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Absolutely!

[@happydays1357]

The timing of this video couldn't be more perfect for me. Since I just funded my SRS in Dec and is looking to invest into SP500.

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Very good!

[@foocheekang3397]

Hey Chris, what about the RSP via FSM One? There are choices like VOO, QQQ etc. min. inves $50/ order

[@peggymooi7835]

Thank you

[@kasperoon]

Thanks

[@MWC888]

Why not buy Ireland domicile S&P 500 related ETF e.g vuaa, cspx, vusf etc using IBKR? There is less tax as s27 dividends are tax 30% by uncle sam as compared from UK. I know is cold hand cash vs cash in SRS. Any thoughts

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Because you can't buy shares outside of SGX market using SRS

[@MWC888]

@@HoneyMoneySG would the outside stocks with higher dividends at 15% tax, outweight the SRS ETF at 30% tax, with income tax rebates. I am also asking myself. Lol

[@xzc3312]

technically you did not show how to buy using srs. it got cut off after telling everyone to use your link and deposit 3k.

[@yamcandy3392]

When everyone is putting their money into s&p i am very skeptical about it

[@ngchongsin2009]

Just note there are 2 type of poems account. Cash plus and cash mgmt. Just go for cash plus

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Yes Cash Plus, as mentioned in the video

[@redboy454545]

Keep up the good work Chris! couldn't resist commending your detailed research and explanation! Massive fan. Quick question: 1. Will buying S27 require capital tax gains? When you sell the shares for a profit.

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Thank you Ian! No capital gains tax in Singapore. But there is a tax deferral scheme for investing with SRS

[@pauller]

@@HoneyMoneySG What about dividend tax and estate tax? do they apply to us as non-US-residents on this fund and I checked S27 is a US domiciled fund. Hope you can clarify, thanks!

[@user-gd9nb1el9m]

S27 or Lion infinity dividends does us still take away 30% ?

[@VishalS82091]

Thanks for the super informative video. You suggested the same ticker and same platform I had in mind for my SRS funds. Unfortunately I can't use your referral as I already have an account with POEMS!

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Glad it was helpful for you Vishal!

[@anthonyyeopk]

Will it better to use POEMS to trade popular stocks like Tesla or Pfizer or Apple stocks? I notice most SRS index funds generate lesser percentage of returns, why lock up your money till 62 years old then can withdraw?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Can't invest non-Singapore stocks with SRS

[@micTie7774]

Your video title says invest in S&P 500 using SRS, but the video content mentioned that we can only invest in SGX products using SRS, but since S27 is not listed in SGX, then how do we invest in S&P 500 using SRS? Please clarify. Thank you.

[@HoneyMoneySG]

S27 is listed in the SGX.

[@camaccount6137]

Hi. Thanks for the informative video. Please share the fees charged by the Agent bank. If you hold your CPFIA with DBS, how much charges I need to pay for each transaction (buy and sell)

[@HoneyMoneySG]

$2.68 per CPF transaction + $2.68 per quarter holding fees for DBS

[@TkYsince1991]

May I know what settlement currency to use? USD or SGD, and is there a difference?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

SGD if you are using SRS funds.

[@paulpaul7777]

Hi Chris, the dividend of S27 is subjected to 30% tax for non US residents right?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Correct

[@yangyang3526]

Which is the best robo advisor or broker 😂

[@catuskottik915]

Unfortunately trading volume for S27 is very low, hence liquidity risk is high.

[@HoneyMoneySG]

I don't think that's how you define liquidity risk

[@catuskottik915]

@@HoneyMoneySG Thanks for highlighting, I meant low liquidity, not liquidity risk. Surely it's low trading volume is a major concern?

[@tarateo9132]

Hi Chris, what will happen to the DCA for S27 if the promo ends in Dec 2022 ?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Look for better alternatives if it ends, which I will update on this channel

[@MrKendoex]

@@HoneyMoneySG you will end up with multiple accounts with varied holdings...personally I have tried it and find that to be messy in the long run. This strikes me as penny wise, pound foolish.

[@ngocnhung5332]

SRS is retirement account in CPF?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Separate. Check out my SRS video kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3ewZJKBfL-ahLc

[@junwenwong4119]

Hi Chris, thanks for sharing! Can I confirm that the quarterly fee and dividend handling fee do not apply to such SRS trades since these trades are kept in the SRS (1 of 3 local banks) and not with POEMS?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

I cannot confirm but what you say may be right. Let's see after the first dividend

[@SkinnyManProduction]

@@HoneyMoneySG If there is quarterly fee and dividend handling fee wouldn't endowus be more value for money since poems quarterly fee and dividend handling fee would end up higher than the endowus access fee.

[@lyrificaton]

@honeymoneysg any updates on the above stated concern?

Will S27 be affected by the 30% US Withholding tax and estate tax?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Yes to both

[@hongyipoh1011]

@@HoneyMoneySG Then wouldn't it be better to just invest it in an Interactive broker instead to reduce the withholding tax and estate tax? Or because you're trying to reduce the income tax by putting your money in SRS?

Yes, reduce income tax

It's still here. Endowus Update coming this week!

[@camaccount6137]

Please help to understand what is the difference if you buy one Unit of S27 vs for same amount buying Lion Global Infinity S&P 500 funds? Which will incur higher upfront fees and maintenance?

[@HoneyMoneySG]

I've explained in the video. S27 will have lower maintenance in the long run (given the options now)

[@danielchan3387]

LionGlobal Infinity US 500 index fund was mentioned at the start of this video. Endowus charges 0.3% access fees so it is better to invest into that fund under POEMS because they do not charge any additional fees.

[@hochoonhiong]

yes i am curious why buy S27 can't i buy LionGlobal infinity through this poem cash plus then?

[@danielchan3387]

@@hochoonhiong Yes buying a unit trust fund or index fund under POEMS does not incur any transaction fees or additional fees so I am not sure why Endowus is used instead of POEMS in this case.
