In a sense you are leveraging your finance with other people's money. However, i also support you views too, it is because you dont want to spend unnecessary interest rate amount. For car loans, its unlike to get a rebate if you settled earlier if you are in the mids of loan servicing, but then again, today, car market is unlike before, its not serving you to point A to point B but its also a fashion trend. A car for a specific function. Also, longer tenure car loans means you wont be selling or change the car any time sooner, but you'll drive it till it finishes the loan amount... Then again, it is based on yhe affordabili and where the money you want to plan for..<br /><br /><br />SheridanSheridannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880327706296599012.post-54165494194592328052011-06-18T16:51:01.793+08:002011-06-18T16:51:01.793+08:00Hi Student$, I had just published a post on some i...Hi Student$, I had just published a post on some ideas how students can make extra money.

Perhaps you can elaborate on how students can 'sell their talents' & certain jobs they can do from home (writing articles & etc). I do write articles, but they were never published. Little did I know that they could be a source of $$$ for me.<br />Thanks for your help. I'll be rooting for that post ;)Student$noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880327706296599012.post-50412665323185482992011-06-06T16:48:10.471+08:002011-06-06T16:48:10.471+08:00Hi Student$, thanks for dropping by and great that...Hi Student$, thanks for dropping by and great that you enjoy my blog. I always hope my sharing can benefit others. <br /><br />Hmm.. I think as a IPT student, you'll have some free time except those time near your final exam where you'll have tonnes of assignment and final exam. Because first of all, you'll need some time before you can make extra money. I learned that a lot of IPT students make money by doing part-time job at convenient store, fast food outlet, boutiques, etc. Or, you can sell your 'talent @ special abilities' like writing articles, giving tuition, teaching music. I believe you'll enjoy doing it. Perhaps I can consider to write a post on how to get extra $$$ for students :p<br /><br />Btw, it's really great that a young IPT student like you is thinking on how to make extra $$$ for saving :) All the best!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026247604231579141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880327706296599012.post-65971437666517256802011-06-06T14:54:50.522+08:002011-06-06T14:54:50.522+08:00Hi Yan.

It is very helpful for students like me who are new in venturing into the adult era from the teenage years where parents take care of most things. But I would like to ask for some suggestions on how to make extra pocket money or monthly allowance for IPT students like me. We barely have extra time in our day, so how can we make some extra $$$ to cater our needs & for savings?Student$noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880327706296599012.post-53951869898095217962011-06-04T23:20:16.209+08:002011-06-04T23:20:16.209+08:00Hi OBH :) hmmm... dragging housing loan too long i...Hi OBH :) hmmm... dragging housing loan too long is causing the real house value become double or tripple... anyway, thanks for dropping by :)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026247604231579141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880327706296599012.post-51865151447608929152011-06-04T12:43:12.662+08:002011-06-04T12:43:12.662+08:00For housing loan, I tend to think it is better to ...For housing loan, I tend to think it is better to drag the tenure of loan as long as possible. <br /><br />But unlike housing loan, the interest, even for the last instalment is charged based on the original principal amount.Ooi Beng Hooihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01037180263001451352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6880327706296599012.post-81634017249900639402011-05-30T11:40:56.756+08:002011-05-30T11:40:56.756+08:00The monthly repayment is fixed while you applying ...The monthly repayment is fixed while you applying hire purchase loan.
