Overall
Share investment (25% and CPF (25%) have replaced Warchest (20%) as main category in term of capital allocation.
This is align with plan to increase investment (dividend income) & long-term savings (CPF) which earn higher income vs existing HDB bank loan 1.8%.

CPF housing loan refund being transferred to SA account to enjoy higher interest.
I have also contributed $7k in SA account for tax saving purpose.
Warchest 20% (vs 29% in May 20)
Decreases mainly due to increasing investments and CPF housing loan refund.
