Read? Mara River : Reaching the Edge of Financial Independence!!!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Financial independence is a term generally used to describe the state of having sufficient personal wealth to live indefinitely without having to work actively for basic necessities. In the case of many individuals whose financial circumstances fit this description, their assets generate income that is greater than their expenses. To illustrate, a person's quarterly expenses may total $4000. They receive dividends from stocks they've previously purchased totaling $5,000 quarterly, while also having an even more substantial amount of money in other assets. Under such circumstances, a person is financially independent.

ReplyDeleteIMO, the 3% inflation rate is too high. When we retire, we should have no obligation on housing & children education. Moreover, if one retire and does not own a car, the inflation impact is minimal as we mainly consume on food and medical expenses.
Of course it is better kiasu a bit but not amounting to too worry about it.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteReally? Actually when you reach 65 like me, you know anything can happen to you tomorrow. So you begin to take things a bit easier though you continue your life-long investment journey. Relax a bit more brother, don't worry too much. Enjoy yourself while you can.
Shalom.
