Setting aside at least 6 months of cash savings for emergencies

With an increasing culture of spending instead of saving, temptation of protection through too much insurance - when u are probably worth more dead than alive, cash is really king during emergencies or in between jobs
 
To offset inflation while holding cash, there are some suggestions
 
a.  OCBC 360 account with 3.05% interest up to 50K
1% for crediting salary, 1% for paying 3 online bills, 1% for $400 spend on ocbc cards

 
 
b. CIMB savings account with 0.8% interest
monthly increment/lump sum of $500 to enjoy 0.8% for checking current account, or $100 monthly increment for savings account

c. Standard chartered bonus$aver account with 1.88% interest up to 25K
monthly spend of $500 in Stanchart credit cards to enjoy 1.88% interest
