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!

      Kekekeke!!! Uncle CW should have already met the Minimum Sum for his cohort!! :)

      So whatever left in his SA & OA can be utilized to milk the annual interest.

      If do partial CPF withdrawal, they will withdraw the interests from SA & OA first, and then from the main balance in SA, and lastly from OA.

      From CPF Website, they said the interest will be from start of the year till the previous month.

      So if go in Dec, the interest will be from Jan-Nov only.

      So to get full year interest from Jan-Dec, have to go in Jan???
      But how to stop CPF from crediting the interests into the main balances of both SA / OA on 31st Dec????

      If go in Jan will basically be extracting the interest credited into the main balance of SA only??

      Cannot extract from OA becoz need to clear SA before can touch OA???? Aiyoh blur liao!!! Hahahaha!!!!

    May I do some ball park calculation of $33K interest?

    Assume SA 148K, MA 40K; interest is $6.6K and $1.6K respectively.

    Remainder interest $24.8K is from OA. Thus, OA amount is $992K.

    W O W !!!
