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!

Funding Your Child’s University in the Future? - Updated

Read? Funding Your Child’s University in the Future?

Updated:

This is what I have spend on the two kids so far- all expenses incurred on the kids themselves but excluding common expenses e.g. family meals


For two full years of study at local U on tuition fees and all living expenses are as follows:

SMU: $26.6K (Higher tuition fee and higher meal costs at campus) - Daughter


NUS: $21.3K - Son

Total = $47.9K

Remember that they are young adults so they may incur some costs in socializing with friends for entertainment and meals. And for daughters, they may have more costs for beauty care and clothings.

    Hi UncleCW8888, did your children take any student/tuition loans from the U or from the local banks? If they used your CPF, they will have to pay back into your CPF right? If you paied with cash, they pay you back with cash later on!!

    Can use CPF fund for university tuition fee. If parents reach 55 before they have graduated, parents can waive the pay back.
