I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Save more than 60%. No need to invest??? (6)


Read? Save more than 60%. No need to invest??? (5)


Assuming Uncle8888 has decided to quit investing for cash flow and use his current War Chest as additional cash flow to fund his future household expenses.

Will he still have enough money to last till 2038 and how bad is it?

Knowing his past annual household expenses for family of 5 members since 2002


 
 
Using the highest annual household expenses since 2002 as the base number with annual inflation rate @ 2.5% to know how much money he has to last till 2038 when he is about 81 years old.
 
His Tap 1 can cover up to 79% so it is not too scary to think about it.

  1. When it becomes unsustainable, I will cut down on travelling so it is still manageable.

    2. Think about time to switch to less time consuming or less stressful investing like STI ETF for lower return and yield. :-)

    Good post. The real cost starts when one is getting uncomfortable.

  3. True.

    When we have more discretionary expenses it will be easier for us to cut back to more comfortable level. YOLO More now and then YOLO Less when time comes. LOL!
