📈 Small wins add up. The power of compounding

Markets are pretty quiet today, so instead of diving into headlines, I want to share a small experiment I did recently. Something simple, but quite eye-opening.

When Longbridge first launched their 12 % Interest Booster promo, I’ll be honest… I thought it was just marketing fluff. You know the bold headline, tiny terms and conditions. So I decided to test it out myself.

I set aside some spare cash and put it into their Cash Plus account. Didn’t touch it. Didn’t trade with it. Just let it sit there and do its thing.

And guess what?

💥 Every day, I was getting SGD1.97 in interest.
Over 10 days, that added up to about SGD19.70.
Over 90 days, it’s close to SGD180. (that is a few good family meal budget for me!)

This isn’t fantasy money. This is actual daily interest credited into my account.
And if you annualise that return, it’s nearly 12% per year.

Now of course, I used part of the funds to buy a few shares — and those portions didn’t earn interest. So my results are slightly lower than the full potential. But even then, the math holds up. It’s real.

And let’s be honest, where else are you going to get 12% on idle cash that’s parked in a money market fund, which is one of the safest instruments available?

We’re always looking for alpha in our trades, but this reminded me that sometimes, the best moves are the quiet ones. Just letting your money work in the background while you wait for the next setup.
