How Much Did I Save From Earned Income After Tax Till 30 Sep 2016 (Retirement From Full-Time Job)


From Jan 2002 to 30 Sep 2016 (retirement from full-time job); Uncle8888 has managed to save about 40% of TOTAL earned income (including employee and employer CPF contributions) after tax. 

25% in CPF accounts and 15% in cash!

That is for family of five as single household income!

  1. Wah! Congrats! I can't imagine supporting 4 other people while saving 40% of my total income for 14 years. Hope I can achieve that next time!

    1. I think current generation may find it hard to save much money in their mandatory CPF accounts due to high property price if using CPF to pay housing loan.

  2. Under statement???

    1. CPF contribution ~37 of income (including bonus). Part of it goes to housing, balance in OA/SA/RA/MA.
    So, your 25% is excluding housing right?
