Part 4 - Crypto.com referral bonus of USD$50 and NFT reveal (underwhelming)

Oopsie. I was supposed to reveal my NFT but work caught up and I've forgotten about it.

Until, I was reminded by a cryto.com notification that there's a special referral promotion running now.

2 things:

1. NFT reveal

Earlier, I shared about the enticing promotion by crypto.com here. By signing up as a new user, you'd get $100 CRO coin plus a NFT! Unfortunately, this promotion has ended. It was a great promotion for me though - especially after crypto transactions via Binance would be greatly limited.

Anyway, for those who are curious how the NFT look like, it was pretty underwhelming. At first, when I saw it animate, I thought it would "crack open" and reveal a unique character or something.

You can search for mooncake in their NFT platform or visit here to see how it looks like. That's not mine btw. I don't intend to sell mine, neither do I think anyone will buy it😬...unless they come up with a use case (hopefully?)

2. USD$50 referral bonus

If you missed out the earlier promotion, crypto.com is offering a US$50 referral bonus with S$500 CRO purchase (you dont have to buy it in one shot). You can visit their link for more information.

The campaign will run till 25 Oct 2021.

If you dont have friends' link, you may use my referral link or the code below :)

I finally cross $700k networth, after 1 year 4 months

I wondered how I should kickstart this post - should I be positive or negative about this? After 1 year 4 months, I finally crossed $700k in networth - returning back to where I've been at, back in Dec 2021. I am disappointed. For the past many years, I've always been growing my networth, at around $100-$150k/year. I had big plans to hit a net worth of $850k by December 2022, but the universe had other plans for me. Instead, I only managed to reach $646k, leaving me with a $204k gap to my target. Ever since I became more aggressive in my "investment" portfolio in 2021, being sucked by greed to deploy most of my cash into stocks and crypto, I fell heavily, along with the crashes. Crypto wiped out 5 digits savings, so did the stock market. To be honest, ever since the crashes and a bad hit to my net worth, I actually didn't do anything special to improve. I didn't make drastic spending cuts, I didn't stop my holidays, I didn't continue investing (no

Starting 2023 with extra $9,979.20

Happy 2023~! I woke up feeling not very positive. It seems like I've brought forward my 2022 negative thoughts along. I ought to be more optimistic! Anyway, my best way of welcoming the new year is to count the new inflow of $ and here's my CPF interest for 2022: Have you check your CPF interest yet?

First CPF top up in Jan 2023 and tax relief concerns

Detailing my yearly CPF top-up and thoughts. This is my 8th year of top-up. 1. Top-up $2.5k to Medisave via Paynow Did a $2,500 top up to my Medisave, bringing it to 2023 MA ceiling of $68,500. Done the same for my husband as well. 2. On hold - To top up $5.5k to SA or no? Contrary to the past where I top-up at the start of the year, I have decided to hold off the top-up. A) Running out of cash Firstly, I'm running out of cash. I'm berating myself for degrading to the past where I look forward to my monthly income for cashflow. So I can build up my $100k capital in savings account again, given the current high interest environment. B) Hitting FRS soon = no tax relief Secondly, I'm concerned about reaching FRS too soon. The FRS this year is $198,800. I'm now sitting on ~$157k SA which means $41,800 away from reaching this ceiling. I know some people encouraged maxing this out ASAP. But, as I've crossed 6 digits annual income, maxing FRS soon meant lower tax relie
