How do I buy and sell my bonds?

What is the best time to buy and sell bonds? Should I wait and hold onto my bonds until it matures or should I sell it whenever I see fit? Should I treat bonds the way I treat stocks? What should I familiarize myself with when it comes to buying and selling bonds? How does the bond market differ from stock market?

    Bond market is similar to the stock market however the bond market is a larger market. You bdon;t have to hold onto the bond until it matures before selling it. There are a few terms that you should know when buying and selling bonds. You should always be familiar with the market price. You should sell your bonds at a premium to earn from your bonds. There are times when you really have to sell your bond at a discount to avoid further loses however avoid it if it is avoidable.

40,000 Membership Rewards points to refer a friends to the card

I like the idea that I can receive 40,000 Membership Rewards points when I get to successfully refer any of my friends to the card. Even more so as my friends can also receive 40,000 Membership Rewards points upon spend of S$5,000 in the first 3 months of their Card Membership. I think that is pretty much a win-win situation.
