The CPF speakers will be advise retiree "doing nothing is also a best option".
ReplyDelete"Doing nothing" means they discourage you to withdraw money from CPF. Go and listen and draw your own conclusion. lol!
Why so eager to withdraw cash from CPF OA unless one thinks Govt is going to change hand?
ReplyDeleteFor savvy investors, CPF OA is safe haven for parking war chest. LOL!
There is a catch. If one continue to work and contribute CPF, one could not withdraw money until the next birthday.
DeleteIn that sense, it is unwise the park the OA money in CPF as war chest. When the market crash, one may not able to use his war chest fully. Of course he still can use CPFIS to trade.
For those with surplus OA after RA, indeed it is a happy problem.
We can make our first CPF OA withdrawal anytime (Best time = Beginning of Bear market to replenish our war chest) and receive it within 5 working days and subsequent withdrawal only once a year till the next birthday or anytime if no withdrawal is made at the next birthday.
DeleteBirthday coming. CPF money coming. LOL!
i think can be 3 working days if online. IRRC
ReplyDeleteAnyway if market comes a Black Swan, you have plenty of time. Only afraid you buy too early
ReplyDeleteOne office auntie told me she now regretted withdrawing all her CPF money.
ReplyDeleteI asked her why you withdraw all?
She claimed she blur blur never read the CPF letter carefully and ticked the wrong box.
Chun bo?
LOL
